Hello all :)

I just wanted to say, that my girlfriend, Cassie, and I are engaged. :) The wedding is this July. Not a lot of time, but we're planning on school on the UK, and want to be married here where our families are.

My groomsmen and I will all be kilted. I know pretty much my outfit, still trying to figure out the groomsmen.

I made her engagement ring, and I'll also be making the wedding bands (mostly, have to take them in to be engraved.)

Very excited, very happy :)

All the best,
Nick

Nick,

This is wonderful to hear. Congratulations and may you have a very happy life together!

Congratulations! Make sure you post pics of the rings.

Congrats!

Congratulations on your engagement. I wish you all the best in your coming life together. Marriage isn't always a "bed of roses" but you'll find that the good times make all the others seem insignificant.

Nick, C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S!!!!

And since you are still trying to figure out the groomsmen and I am just across the lake, I humbly offer my services as a groomsmen, and I already have a number of kilts to chose from! However, feel free (please, please, please) to select a tartan that I do not own and force me to buy another! I am sure that Auld_Argonian and I would be honored to be part of the wedding party and to have an excuse to buy another kilt!

Congratulations!

Coincidentally, I was just over at the website for The Kilt Store and came across tartan garters for the bride in a kilted wedding.

Incidentally, I'm married to someone who might supply your wedding kilts locally, for a reasonable price, if you supply the fabric. She'd kill me if she knew I just posted that, but she's a fantastic seamstress, with a couple of kilt patterns on file, one for an 8 yard traditional, and the other for a casual kilt style 4 yards, or so, and I'm sure she'd enjoy being involved in a wedding in taht capacity.

Congratulations, Nick. I hope you will take your commitment very seriously, & you were kilted, of course, when you proposed?

Sherry

Thank you everyone :)

KCW, thank you very much, I appreciate it. I've already asked my groomsmen, though. I'm trying to figure out what they'll wear, though. :oops: You should still buy a new kilt, though :)

MacMullen, my dad is buying me the kilt suit, but I think at least one of my groomsmen would be happy to take you up on the offer, if your wife is willing. I'll ask if he plans on buying (he indicated that he's interested in buying one for himself.)

Nick
(P.S. I'll get pics of the ring soon :mrgreen: )
