The only problem I had with any of it was that my brother in-law wore it with the jacobite shirt, which to me is costume and not appropriate, but it was HIS confirmation.
Next month he and his dad be wearing his kilt for our nephew's christening. This time I think I'll make a comment(ahead of time) about the jacobite shirt being costume. I haven't decided whether or not I'll wear mine to the mass; perhaps my Ancient Grant hunting because it's more subdued. My Modern Grant really stands out.
Jacobite shirts are not costumes. There are quite commonly seen in Scotland worn with the kilt.
