Ask him, not us! Only he knows the reason.

There are a few reasons why he won't wear them:
1) He does not respect your family, your sister and you enough to dress appropriately for such an occasion.
2) He has no concept of tradition or proper etiquette, which requires formal attire at a wedding.
3) He doesn't respect himself enough, not to make a fool of himself by wearing something ridicules to a formal event.
4) Is young and immature. He won't wear a suit b/c it's uncomfortable, stupid, ugly, whatever.... Doesn't realize that sometimes as an adult we have to do things we don't like to do.
As for not being able to afford one, that could be the case. However, if you have been dating for 3 years, than he should be able to say that to you w/o giving you an attuitude or putting up a front. Not admitting the truth just goes back to acing immaturely.

You say you are not judging him but maybe you should! It is immature and ridiculous that he will not wear a suit at this important family occasion. He would look like a complete idiot wearing jeans at this formal event. The fact that he does not want to do this for you (or even for himself) says a lot about what kind of person he is whether you are ready to hear that or not. When I read you question the thought that pops into my mind is ---lose this fool quick.

He should wear a suit or just not go. Enjoy the time without him.
You could always see if the bride and groom will accept if he could go in a pair of nice pants and button down shirt, sort of a business casual attire.

I've seen jeans worn by the husband of a MoH!
Can he not afford to buy a suit? That might be the problem & is embarassed to tell you.
This isn't a major problem, but it does speak volumes about your future life together; one I would now take a very good look at. There are certain consessions we have to make in life, and this is one of them. You may be attending the wedding alone.

If he is being inconsiderate towards you and your family I would tell him not to come unless he wears a suit. If he won't respect the brides wishes as it her big day, he's best left at home. Hun you'd probably have a more fun without him anyways.
Tell it's a formal wedding and not a Chavy one. Tell him to grow up act his age and to stop blubbering like a spoilt brat.

If he is an anti-suit person that's his business...apparently making his own apparel decisions is more important to him than conforming to the desires of the people hosting the event.
Men look so good dressed up in suits...I don't understand why so many simply refuse to wear them...they aren't THAT different than jeans, shirt, and sport coat (as far as how the clothes feel to wear)...

(1) He may be embarassed because he doesn't own a suit (or doesn't own one that fits). If that's the case, you've got to work with him to find appropriate attire.
(2) If not, he's just lazy or a slob, to be honest. He cares more about a little bit of comfort for 1-2 hours than you or your sister's happiness. That's a really, really bad sign.

Because he's immature, tell him to grow up. It's a wedding for God's sake, he'll look a real knobhead if he's the only one in jeans and trainers too.
This could be your angle...tell him he'll look a fool and really infantile and childish when compared to all the other 'men' at the wedding.

He needs to grow up a bit and respect occassions like this. Sometimes in life you have to put yourself out and do things you don't particularly want to but to show respect to others you do them. Obviously you want him there and will be upset if he doesn't go, but don't bow down to his threats. At weddings (or most of them) you dress up and men wear a suit. He is being childish, he is throwing a tantrum - "if I can't wear this then I won't go".

Sometimes men don't like wearing suits. Tell him u understand this but it would make you happy. The best thing to do is to be understanding.
