    Good Lord Erik,

    Its YOUR wedding too. Should not the groom invest as much in his attire as the bride? Don't want it to look as if the elegant princess is marrying a pauper.

    Choose your tartan, then hook up with Barb Tewksbury or Kathy Lare. They'll find your cloth for you and hand sew you a kilt you'll treasure all your life and pass on to your sons and grandsons. You'll stand tall. Most importantly you'll have a personal relationship with your kiltmaker that will tailor the kilt for you alone. And, the kiltmaker will know your wedding date and meet it.

    Great fears about trusting the word of a company that has kilts made by anonymous kiltmakers to meet your wedding date. Too many tales of horror about that on this forum.

    If you really are too poor to have a hand sewn kilt made up then USA Kilts semi-traditional is an option. You can trust Rocky to sew up a fine PV kilt for you.

    But hey, if your wedding isn't the time to go top of the line - nothing else is.
