It is called style!
It is all to to with reality. No way, ever, will a Highlander wear anyone Else's tartan when he has his own. Are you suggesting, for example, that the groom is to wear white hose to match the bride's outfit? Sorry, but it just does not happen up here with the local Highlanders, incomers maybe. I suspect the hire companies are, yet again, leading their customers astray with their erroneous advice. For the the locals the bride and her entourage do one thing, the groom stands fast with his attire and does his own thing and amazingly(to some), with tremendous style!
