As a Buchanan I'm partial to asymmetrical tartans. Ours have been made into kilts for close to 200 years now with pleasing results. I have a modern with a smaller sett and an ancient with a rather large sett. Both look great to me.
I've also read many commentaries that say an asymmetrical design is more pleasing to the eye which is why the Buchanan Modern is so popular in shirts by Lands End, LL Bean, Orvis etc.
I like your design very much and think it will make a fine kilt. What a nice thing to premiere at the wedding.
