Antarctica

Cool pictures! I see that the penguins wore black-tie to the event also.

It is interesting to see him in his PC and Kilt and the bride all bundled up in a nice heavy coat and hat.

From wikkipedia: "The first formal use of the name "Antarctica" as a continental name in the 1890s is attributed to the Scottish cartographer John George Bartholomew."

Deil the Yin,

The Tartan in the photo is the Firefighters Memorial Tartan designed by Kelly Stewart of USA Kilts.

Ah! Cheers for the clarification.

This just made me smile! What a wonderful and unique thing to do! I wish we had been in a position to do something this marvelous for our special day.

They both look stunning and she is obviously having a blast.

Everyone already stole my comments (e.g. it's high summer in Antarctica, and the penguins in black ties/tuxes).

Be well,

Wow. A kilt, a bride, a glacier and penguins. That's a wedding memory.

WOW! The groomsmen were short, but the black and white tails looked good, HA HA!

Rocky, I know how this makes you feel as for a couple of months in 2006 I also could claim a Kilt on every continent. I'm looking everywhere for the picture of one of my Kilts on an ice cliff piping the sun as it goes round-n-round.

Congratulations. A great photo that is just crying for an autograph and honored place on your web site.
