Well, I started looking because of my fiance. She's really into her Scottish heritage and it's always been a big part of her family's life. We decided we want to do handfasting at our wedding. So naturally, I needed to find out if I had a tartan, or if we would claim one of her's. Also being with her, we've been going to many a Scottish festival and other activities. It just seems like it would be more fun in proper garb. I can't imagine what they'd be like without the proper beverages (ale, whiskey, etc.) so I imagine it's quite similar to being un-kilted.
