    You might want out check out Celtic Croft, here is a link to the flashes page and they do have your tartan available:

    Another thought if you don't have the time to wait for shipping is to see if there are any other tartan shops in your area, I'm lucky in that I have several tartan shops close by, not sure if that would be an option for you or not, but it might be an idea.

    Good luck with it, and congratulations on your upcoming wedding.

    You may have to go with solid flashes. Most of the jobbers carry them but you'd be well advised to call and verify that they are in stock and can be shipped right away.

    I'd also suggest Matt's (Scottish Tartan Museum) traditional garter flash dealies if he has a color in stock that you can use. Last I heard they were awaiting a shipment.

    Or, if tartan red works let me know and I'll let you borrow mine for the gig. Isn't "something borrowed" a tradition?

    Here's a pic of one, a tad out of adjustment and cropped.
