Obviously I haven't seen your specific suit so I can only answer with general guidelines but your shoulder pads shouldn't come out any wider than your shoulders.
If you stand sideways against a wall, the shoulder pad shouldn't touch the wall before your arm does.
Generally you should trust your gut instinct and if it doesn't feel right when you look in the mirror, you won't be comfortable in it.
I think you should go to a good department store for your first shopping outing and you should go just to window shop and not feel pressured into buying.
The advantage of department stores is that they stock a wide range of brands and you can just walk around and get a feel of the department and see what styles catch your eye.
Use the assistants to ask questions about prices and you can be very specific ie if you know you like a certain type of double breasted suit, ask them to see a range of prices in that style.
Here is my advice; go with lighter fabrics as they help to make you appear more slender. Avoid heavy fabrics that will bulk him out even more. Also go for dark colors which really are more slimming.
Pick a monochromatic outfit as this will slim him down by drawing attention away from the waist area. Navy and black are the best colors for suits.
