    Average Scottish Groom's Wedding Attire

    Hopefully some of our Scottish bretherin can provide information on what is the typical wedding attire for the average person in Scotland. I have seen that the rental shops push Argyle jackets, white hose, etc that are displayed and discussed here in the forum. I've also seen suggestions that tweeds are appropriate for all occasions except black or white tie. So, as a widower who will be remarried in a small wedding in a village on Skye in a few months, I am interested in being respectful and not, to use American terms, being overdressed, I would like to dress as is normal in the area. The MacKay blue tartan is very colorful so I'm considering either a Lomond (navy) blue tweed Braemar jacket and vest or charcoal gray crail jacket and vest instead of a black barathea Argyle. Information, suggestions, and comments are appreciated.
