I got the go-ahead for a kilt at my own wedding.
Hello, X-Marks,
The last few months have been exceptionally busy, but I have the girlfriend's engagement ring ordered, a lot of holiday plans made for the end of graduate school, went full-time at my job, and started the unofficial wedding planning with her.
She is okay with me being kilted, groomsmen, (and the groomslady), being kilted or wearing tartan, having bagpipes for at least part of the wedding, a ceilidh, and some other Scottish things.
I have to order a PC, fly plaid, and a dress sporran soon, (USA kilts of course), for the wedding, and the PC and sporran may be useful at an event this year.
I have a question for the Rabble. If you wore a kilt at your own wedding, or were a groomsman at a wedding where there were kilted groomsmen, did they have matching kilts or was there a range of tartans? I like the idea of people wearing their own clan's tartan if they have one, or choosing a universal tartan, but I wander if it will look as good as I hope or if it is truly garish.
Also another question, ever had bagpipes for just the groom? The girlfriend is unsure if she'd go with Highland Cathedral or a modern song not on the pipes.
