    If you post a pic, an hour or two before the show, someone should be online to help you. We took pics before my wedding, and I had plenty of time to make adjustments.

    or at least describe what you will be wearing so we can comment on how great it will look.

    wedding 1730, reception 1930 'til they throw us out.

    Hat- yea or nay it would be a glengary (the women in my life picked it out for me over the balmoral)

    Torso-white tuxedo shirt, silver/pearl studs, cufflinks, black bow tie (still having problem getting right look), black Prince Charlie jacket and waist coat.

    The KILT- Dunbar modern (mostly red with green, think Christmas), black belt, silver buckle, white fur sporran (semi dress).

    whats under my kilt? green flashes, off-white hose, black dress shoes, no sgian dubh- real knife in sporran.

    Any suggestions? will be heading out at 1930 UTC on Saturday.

    I wore the Irish National SWK to dinner. My experience this evening says not many kilt wearers in this area. My friends returned the womens attentions to save my marriage, thoughful aren't they.

    I wouldn't - not for an evening event, especially if it's indoors. At every gathering I've been to, the men all remove their hats with the exception of a clan chief if one is present. Why bother wearing something if it's going to be tucked into your belt all night? I've *never* seen a hat with a Prince Charlie jacket, anyway.

    Sounds fine, here.

    The purists will tell you to leave off the belt and buckle if you're wearing the waistcoat. From my own point of view, I don't think it's a problem *if* the buckle is low-profile so it doesn't cause bunching of the waistcoat at the buckle.

    Sounds fine. I've always thought it better to go without a sgian dubh than to wear something tacky.
