Hey, I got married.

**The Guy in the Kilt at UC** · 2nd November 09, 06:27 AM

Hey! Somehow, I managed to get the most beautiful girl I know to marry me. Here's some pictures that my cousin took. I'll put some of mine up later I suppose.

It's an old tradition in the family to give a wooden spoon at certain occasions, such as proposing marriage. This is an oak spoon I carved from a 100+ year old tree that fell last about a month before I proposed.

I broke half a dozen tools carving it; the wood is so dense.

This is my parents, sisters and their husbands. My dad is doing a kilt check in the photo.

Our friend, Aaron, is smudging the room before the ceremony. Part of his family's tradition is to burn sage as a way of purifying people and places with the smoke. You can't see in this photo, but he is wearing some Black Watch trews that I got him.

My good friend, Nate, is reading "The Square Root of Three" a poem by David Feinberg.

The wedding party. From left to right, the tartans are: the Offaly, Kilkenny, and Galloway district tartans. And then the maid of honor is in her sari.

So here I am, back on campus, still wearing the kilt. Only today I have a pullover instead of the formal outfit.

May I be the first to say,Congratulations! I was pleased to meet the happy couple at the Ohio Ren Festival in October.

Well, at least the first person not in Cincinnati, to say Congratulations.

Congratulations. It appears that you had a very great celebration, and you'd look pretty good if we could take our eyes off your lovely bride.

Best wishes to you both, and lang may yer lum reek.
