    Champagne or scotch?

    I was pouring out the drinks at a friend's daughter's wedding. Vest from Rocky at USAkilts, sporran from Stillwater Kilts, Home modern kilt from Arizona Kilts(Graeme, come back!).

    No one told me my tie was crooked!

    Most question I was asked was whether I was going to be playing the pipes.

    Nice picture! With a bottle of champagne in one hand and a shot of whisky in the other, and a lovable smile like that, I would have been a bit disappointed if your tie was straight. You must have been the high light of the wedding, so to speak, with of course the exception of the bride and groom. Nice outfit by the way.

    I get asked the same question a lot.
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    Scotch, every time.

    You're looking sharp too btw. The crooked tie really makes that picture.

    Great pic , really like the Home tartan . It's a prerequisite that your tie be crooked at a reception .

    My choice would be Scotch . I guess you could do a shot of Scotch with a Champagne chaser , however , not sure how the taste buds would react to that .

    There simply is no contest here. Scotch all the way. No ice. :shudders:

    Love your ensemble. Crooked tie makes it more candid and "real" (if that makes sense).

    I agree with the consensus. Scotch. I don't need the headache that champaign always provides. It looks like you were having a good time and that is all that matters.

    Start with the champagne, finish with the scotch.
