Will I look like the 'other bride' if I wear this to a wedding?

I've got a bespoke suit that looks exactly like this i.pinimg.com/474x/11/b5/56/11b556c01631d69ac6ed1e14e43add1b--boy-meets-girl-androgynous-fashion.jpg in this exact colour i.pinimg.com/474x/3c/fd/aa/3cfdaa38bc0cdf8e1eaf895d7c15714f--ralph-lauren-collection.jpg. Was all set to wear it to a wedding (in Australia if it makes a difference) late next March, but am now having second thoughts because a friend of mine told me that I'd end up looking like the one marrying the bride!

Should I start panicking now?

Definitely wear it ! Clearly dresses aren't your thing, why are all men allowed to wear a suit to a wedding but your not !!

Hell yeah I'd wear it.

It's not white 🤷🏻‍♀️

I don’t get this at all. If a man wore a light grey suit to a wedding, no one would bat an eyelid. Why is this any different? It’s a straight wedding so no second bride in a suit. I know you’re looking at a pink one now but I really don’t get the forore about the grey one

I like the pink one as March is still pretty much summer. You could wear the grey without being inappropriate. Check what colour the bridal party is in though if the guys are in grey it will look funny, but Either way make sure you layer it with a cool top. Air conditioning is a variable thing, you might be freezing or sweating like a pig

If you were a guest at my wedding I would want you looking and feeling divine in the first suit, rather than settling for the (nice but significantly less beautiful) pink suit but oh well!

What colour suits do men typically wear in Australia to weddings? I would have though with the hot weather paler shades including pale grey would be popular. I think it would look good, I would avoid an up do for your hair and try for a colour if possible underneath. Blues and purples would work.

I have worn trouser suits to weddings and I think they area great option.
