Wedding attire for FotG

**Dale-of-Cedars** · 27th February 11, 03:28 AM

For those who enjoy tilting at haberdashers, here's my entire range of ties (except for a couple of black ones.)

The solid red, the dark green and the Lovat Green are all recent finds at the thrift store.
I picked up the Lovat Green one because the pattern matched the Crawford sett, but I still need to get some Lovat Green hose...

The second from the bottom is Royal Canadian Engineers (my old cadet corps affiliation) regimental colours.

Much better with a bit of knee showing, good show.

Well you will not go wrong wearing a "sapper" tie particularly as you are entitled to wear it, but I think second down is rather more suitable for a wedding.

Psst. Try lowering the hose another inch and see how it looks.

Thanks Jock, I will give it a try.

And thanks to everyone for the help and kind words.

You look smashing! Congrats with the wedding, you must be a proud dad.
Skål!

May be just a camera /flash thing, but I seem to see flesh through the hose. If so, you need a thicker pair! Pretty good overall though...

Yes, I would like to get some really nice thick hose

, but will need to save my pennies...

You know it's weird - I perform the ceremony and plan it, but with my son getting married next autumn, I've been hauled into (at least to the edge of) a whole bunch of planning that is so far beyond the essentials. I love a really fancy wedding, but I also love the really simple and intimate ones that have so much meaning. Ah well!

Spartan Tartan.

No you don't have to wear the kilt to a Scots wedding. Many do, many don't. No one would dare specify which tartan to wear!We wear the one we have and the splash of assorted colours of different tartans in ever changing combinations is a wonder to behold and is better, by far, than anything a "wedding organiser" can come up with!

I've always been a fan of disorganized religion. ;-)
