    Scots aristocracy get married in Highland Dress

    Whilst all the focus was one a certain sister there are some fine examples of how to wear Highland Dress to a wedding and not look like a Christmas Tree.

    Thanks for sharing this Peter. As you say, some excellent examples of Highland Dress here. Did you notice the striped socks of George Percy with his morning suit, though? Shocking!

    Yes indeed. Good to see the tweeds at weddings and only one wee lad in a PC with a long tie.

    As there is a thread going on about formal dress weddings at the moment---------and the fact that I am not cleaver enough to do a link thingy-----I thought that some might find the pictures useful, to show that thank goodness, not all Scots weddings are of the " kilt hire shop" variety these days.

    Well the fella in the morning suit looks a proper slouch , walking with his hands in his pockets , not a desirable look to me personally

    As the future Duke of Northumberland was educated at Eton, the hands in pockets look is only to be expected!
