    I'm glad this was posted for my own selfish edification as I also have a formal day wedding to attend in which the bride wants us in our kilts. Thanks.

    I second this! I'm escourting my gf to a wedding in Minneapolis at the end of Oct. Historically, I'd just wear a suit and be done but with my chaotic work schedule (read: no exercise in the past few months) and my slow emersion into wearing kilts - I figure this is a perfect time to break it out and try it out since I will know no one. (read: I'm pretty shy).

    I'm going with the the family tartan (Maclean) for kilt (and probably tie) with tweed jacket. If I can pick up a matching vest, I'll wear that too. I'm sure I'll be posting pictures of possible outfits soon enough! As for the general attire of the attendees - I'm not sure. I'm guess it will be a mix of very casual to suit and tie. I'm having my gf check on that and potentially adjust accordingly.

    this is what i wore at my mates in July i was the only one there with a self tie ruche everyone had the pre-tied ones which i felt looked silly having spent so much time getting the look right to be spoiled with a plastic part on a tie on full show just didn't appeal to me
    i think the waistcoat/vest just tidies the look up when the jacket needs to come off later in the evening
