It seems that a standard bowtie would be acceptable for a guest to wear with a tweed agryll.

Do you know Jamie I was wondering about that myself. By standard bow tie, I assume you mean the spotted/club/regimental/university/college/old school type. I was racking my brains to see if I could recall seeing one worn with the kilt, during the day and I could not. I can't see why it should not be done though, it just seems that it isn't! Perhaps it may be regarded as just too English for most Scots to wear?
