Proper wearing of outfit.

[Jock Scot]

Will be heading to Scotland in a couple of weeks for the AGM of Clan Donnachaidh. Was there 5 years ago, and I was about the only one not kilted. I've since had my kilt made, Robertson Hunting Modern, and love it. Along with a BPC jacket. Here's the issue. Will be attending the formal banquet and wearing the outfit with tux shirt and bow tie. Next day the clan meets at our kirk for services. Yes, we just purchased the Struan Kirk from the Church of Scotland. Most will be wearing kilts with tweed jackets and other daywear options. I don't have one...yet. Is it proper to wear a "regular" dress shirt with a leather vest and tie? Also, is it the accepted practice to NOT wear a belt with waistcoat/vest? TIA

Absolutely, do not wear a belt if wearing a waistcoat.There are a few rare exceptions that don't need to be gone into for now and certainly they don't apply to your proposed kilt use. I am not a regular church goer, but if it were me in your situation, I would wear shirt, tie and a pullover.
