Some people can be really extra when it comes weddings and their picture-perfect life!

This guy’s cousin’s wedding got spoiled because of a suit! But did it, really? That’s what the bride claims, but he thinks she’s ridiculous.

Find out exactly what happened!

AITA for swapping suits between the wedding ceremony and reception?

So, a few years ago when my grandfather passed, I inherited his pinstripe suit and vest, and only because I’m the only one who matched his build and height.

It’s a bespoke Connolly he had made nearly thirty five years ago and it still looks brand new and stylish today.

I have no idea how much it is worth exactly, I just know it is probably at least one order of magnitude more expensive than any other clothing I own, probably to the tune of mid to high four figures.

Like seriously, take a look at Connolly’s prices for casual wear and you will dump a brick.

He wasn’t going to ruin his suit!

So I’ve got a rule: It’s ceremonial.

I wear it to look awesome at a wedding ceremony or funeral, for pictures, and basically any event where I have to do nothing but walk, smile, and where there is no food or where dancing and merrymaking might ruin it.

I’ve got another pinstripe suit I paid maybe $300 for that is tailored as well, but it makes me look like a Wish dot com version of myself compared to when I’m wearing the real deal.

This is where it gets bad…

So last weekend I was at a wedding for my cousin.

As usual, I showed up in the blingsuit for the ceremony and wedding photos, and when we went from the ceremony to the reception, I did the swap because it was a buffet with an open bar and dance floor.

Cousin’s new wife didn’t notice for the first hour, then when she did she went full Bridezilla and demanded I change back into my proper suit so I wouldn’t look bad in the background of her reception photos.

That’s INSANE!

I refused, and she told me she’d kick me out if I didn’t change.

I told her I’m not ruining a suit more expensive than her wedding dress to look nice in the background of a few selfies and dipped, and now that part of the family has been blowing up my phone for ruining the wedding.

AITA?

YIKES! That’s a lot of drama over a suit!

Why did the bride even care about someone in the background?

Let’s find out what folks on Reddit think about this one.
