    Now what makes me think that they might have hired their outfits?

    Yes indeed! Seems that all the Groomsmen, the Groom, and the Father of the Bride hired their outfits here in the States, and wore matching brown-toned tartan kilts (I don't know what tartan it was), black Argylls, white hose, ghillies, and ruche neckties: typical hire outfits.

    The Father of the Bride, who also officiated, is a Scot, and the pastor of his own church here, often preaches in kilts and owns his own clothes. He wears, to preach, a black Prince Charlie, a kilt of his clan tartan, white hose, and ghillies. For this wedding he wore one of the brown-tartan hire kilts.

    Several of the relatives who had flown over from Scotland brought their own clothes. One gent wore a lovely sky blue Sheriffmuir doublet, which brought out his gleaming bright blue eyes I might add. Other Scottish relatives wore black Argylls, white hose, ghillies, etc.
