Thanks again Tobus
yeah I know what you mean, your probably right. I'm sure you know what weddings are like, just a mad rush in the morning!
Now, I'm a bit confused about the correct length: what height someone wears it is a bit out of my hands, but what you say about it coming to the top of the knee is what I've always thought, and it what is recommended in 'The Art of Kiltmaking'. But when I was making my kilt and showing it to my then fiancé and a friends mother and grandmother (so three generations of Scottish women in one room) they all said that was too much knee. When i've been into kilt-makers in Edinburgh they say to get the accurate length the client kneels on the ground and they measure from naval down to hovering just above the ground.
