Thanks for all the replies and welcomes, I didnt think I would get this many

Will answer a few things that came up.

He is my husband to be, we are getting married in September (In secret so dont tell anyone in Boston, though we live in the UK) I want the tartan for my garter.

His mothers family are Sscottish, but his father was in RAF so he wasnt born or raised in Scotland, and doesnt really do tartan, except for weddings (sadly not our own, although I wanted him too)

My Gandfather passed away in 1994, we were quite close so wanted to honour his memory.

However after all this discussion, my friend who is Scottish and is 1 of only 2 guestss at the wedding has bought me a garter, though Im not sure which tartan yet, its a surprise.

In reply to the Welcome from Canada, thats thats where Im going on honeymoon, driving accross the border from Boston
