Wear the green tweed with a Cunningham. I have seen green argyles with red kilts before and they can look very nice together.
Have fun,

This is the best overall advice. We can debate the rules all day. We have to remember, however, that these rules were developed by aristocrats who had the money for all these different levels of dress. A lot of today's society doesn't even know these rules, let alone follow them.
It's good to know the rules, but the most important rule is to follow the lead of the hosts. To dress at a certain level because it's the "proper" way to dress, even though the hosts have set a different level of dress, is insulting the hosts, as you are putting yourself above them because you "know better".

No. It's eating tweed that's forbidden after Easter.

Why not wear the Argyll even though it's green with the Cunningham kilt? Give it a try, if you still aren't sure post a picture here before the event, but don't wear the PC it is not the right time for it, let it air out. I am sure you will find occasion to wear it soon enough.

 Don't in any way out dress the Groom. I also like the idea of an argyle jacket.

Yes, but this time of year you can wear your white ghillie brogues.
More on topic - I agree with the foregoing. Wear the Argyle. And I think green tweed would go just fine with your red kilt.

Alright, the PC is out. I already asked the couple if wearing my kilt would be OK, and they said it was fine. I will have to see how the Green Argyle and Cunningham kilt go together. I am having trouble imagining it in my head right now. To me, it just seems like it will scream CHRISTMAS! Anyway, if I dont decide I want to do that, I will just conform and wear a suit. Its not my day after all.
