Probably the styling but I think I'd rather wear no jacket than that suit

Had a suit made by Thom Sweeney that was made from lightweight wool (under their advice as I didn't want linen or seersucker) and was fine when I wore it for my wedding in Bali (#humblebrag).

nice but wrong proportions. don't think I could ever buy a suit off ebay - no chance of returns if sizing is wrong

It does indeed look better on their own site (rather than the shitty matches styling)

Just wear navy. You don't want to out-do the bride.

Do you have any groomsmen or a best man Swede? You might be mistaken for a guest if it's just you in green and they look smarter.

Agree that suit is too casual to wear at your own wedding. If you were a guest its acceptable, but as a groom its a no IMO.

The fact that its worn with trainers and sandals in the styling pics should tell you all you need to know.
