wear it how your fiance wants you to wear it. f*ck everyone else, it's your wedding. the only person you should be concerned with looking good for is her. congrats and i wish you a lifetime of happiness.

I think you should do what you want to do, but a little compromise would probably show that you respect your in-laws -- hair will grow back.
Maybe get some ideas from a hair stylist on what can be done for an attractive look without having to cut it.... I think you have a lot of options --- just be creative and open to anything --
ultimately your wedding is the first day of you married life -- the focus is so much more than your hair -- enjoy the week and have a happy wedding and marriage.

I think you should get your hair cut. Short. Very short.
I used to have long hair and a long beard, and it was hot and it was harder to wash and comb out, etc. et. etc. etc.
I don't care about your in-laws, but I know that when I keep my hair super short, I can take a nap and wake up and it is not messed up. I can wash it and get out of the shower and it doesn't even need to be combed.
It is cool and convenient.
I find it interesting that long hair makes you look like the cool carefee dude, but actually it requires all kinds of maintenance, unless you are a hippie, and short hair is actually, practically considered, a much less restrictive kind of a style.
Anyway, that is not so terribly long that you couldn't grow it all back in a year.

it should only matter what you and your fiance want. ask her if she cares if it's down or up. if you are having a traditional ceremony, that I would at least put it in a ponytail. is it just straight to your shoulder blades?? you could maybe go and have it styled a little bit. but remember, this is YOUR day, not your in-laws. Good luck

If your fiance met you with long hair, and you like it like that keep it long. For the wedding you could try a ponytail since it looks more polished and formal.

I say... talk to your fiance about it, isn't she the one you want too keep happy. Maybe she doesn't want you too cut it. I think long flowing hair in a tux would be HOT!! Of course a ponytail reserved kinda thing would be handsome.

You should wear your hair however you like it. Personally I love long hair on a guy and I'm guessing your fiance does too. If it wasn't your hair, I'm sure your inlaws would find something else to complain about, that's what inlaws do.

it's nice that you are considering these things for your future mother and father in law. but remember that just because you marry their son, they don't own you. you do what you like for YOUR wedding. it's YOUR day. YOU should be happy. everyone needs to make sure you are stressfree. don't let them stress you out. how do YOU like your hair? there are so many different things you can do with hair your for YOUR wedding day. you dont have to cut it just because the in laws don't like your hair length. whats next...
they won't like your hair color and you'll have to change it so they would like it? who are you marring anyway, them or your fiance? what does he say to all this?
please, learn now.. nip it at the bud NOW before its too late.

It's your wedding and you wear your hair any way you please.
It is absolutely ridiculous that you soon to be in-laws do not like you with long hair. Have they, for the past 5 years, griped about your hair? Please ask them why. It sounds as if this is about another issue besides hair. It's really none of their business. Good luck and best wishes.

Put it in a ponytail and drop it down the jacket of your tux, at the reception let it all hang out, your not marring your in-laws only their daughter.

Who cares what the in-laws think of your hair. What does the finance think? What is you veil like, that will determine the style of your hair for the wedding?
If you like the length I would keep it.
