I guess it was the busy schedule, but I'm glad I saw it now. I love looking at wedding pictures. I don't know why you'd feel bad about sharing them- they're lovely. I'm not quite sure how you could call the bridesmaid dresses pink-ish. The "ish" needs to go sit in the corner- they're PINK! I actually like a bit of pink now and then- even pink-ish! lolPatricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09073900183291544491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5439971908848990993.post-14036544187970129542011-02-27T05:32:49.143+00:002011-02-27T05:32:49.143+00:00"He wore a kilt?!" was my first thought...."He wore a kilt?!" was my first thought...and apparently that captured the attention of quite a few other people, too. :) And then I couldn't get over the dyed-to-match shoes that the bridesmaids wore. :)<br /><br />I was in a pink wedding once...I wonder what happened to that dress. It had lots of ruffles on the back of it, too. Oh, and we wore lace gloves. We were the very picture of...well...pink, I guess! :)<br /><br />I love this post. Absolutely love it. Thanks for sharing this piece of your history!<br /><br />By the way, I attended a concert tonight of a group called the Celtibillies; in their music, they explore the connections between Celtic and Appalachian music--who knew there are so many? Some of the music was Scottish, so of course, I thought about you all evening! There was also a clog-dancing group that performed--very fun.Davene Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09036284894596672798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5439971908848990993.post-71661352063160029732011-02-24T22:32:32.023+00:002011-02-24T22:32:32.023+00:00Thanks for the info on the kilts and the tartans! ...Thanks for the info on the kilts and the tartans!

But on the mainland (anything that's not the islands - I guess that's obvious!) most men wouldn't. I love the guys in kilts.<br /><br />As for the tartan. Oh dear, confession time. They are not a family tartan - they're actually the tartan of Rangers Football Club. If I tell you that my husband has no interest in the world in football, then you will have to conclude that his wife-to-be chose (insisted on) this tartan. <br /><br />Big Brother refused to wear this tartan (him supporting another team an' all that), so he - sensible wore his family tartan.<br /><br />Often, the guys will wear the kilt if they're going to a wedding as guests - not just in the Bridal Party, but as 'ordinary' guests. I have to tell you..... they look dreamy. Well, my hubby does anyway, and I'm reliably informed by the wives of the others that they do too ;)Homeschool on the Crofthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03400742529025230433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5439971908848990993.post-44967984239945197452011-02-24T17:24:26.757+00:002011-02-24T17:24:26.757+00:00Love your pictures, especially the Mum one.

Pink brings out the natural color in their faces. And with a MacMillan for a grandmother, I have to love the kilts!Alva Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09166284669756686058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5439971908848990993.post-12625191675002440332011-02-24T17:14:09.927+00:002011-02-24T17:14:09.927+00:00Love seeing your wedding photos!
