What Do Scottish Brides Wear for Their Wedding?

[@ryancampbell1726]

In my kilted wedding, we did exactly that. My mother and daughter wore our family's tartan sash, and my father donned my bride with the same sash right before we were announced as Husband and Wife. It was a simple and meaningful gesture for us.

My Japanese wife and I did many of the things you talked about in our wedding in Tokyo. I was in my full Prince Charlie w/ fly plaid and she started in a standard white dress. I had my 7-year old daughter from my first marriage wrap a tartan sash (Johnston ancient) around our hands and after we said our vows, I pinned it across her shoulder. Our Japanese guests were fascinated by the whole thing & I spent much of the dinner explaining what I was wearing, the history of Clan Johnston (including the “Lockerbie Lick” of course) and everything Scottish/American.

Glad I found this video. You guys always have very nice informative videos and I appreciate it. We are planning a wedding for next year and we plan to go to Scotland to get married. I’d also like to add some Celtic traditions to the ceremony.

These are great ideas and definitely should be incorporated into weddings. The only ceremonial things around tartans in the church is the "Kirking of the Tartans" in the Presbyterian Church.

Here in Scotland it’s only really the men who wear traditional dress as in a Kilt. But the bride most just wear a modern white wedding dress, my wife did. There was nothing she wore to give away she’s Scottish or a Scottish Bride.

Scottish brides rarely wear tartan. Being scottish in the highlands this is very rare.

At my daughter's wedding, my mother who is our family matriarch stood and gave her blessing during the ceremony, basically giving the bride away and also accepting the groom into the family, the groom's father as the patriarch of their family did the same. my daughter and son in law wanted this instead of the who gives this woman in marriage tradition. I think it was a wonderful way to honor both families and how we are now all family and forever linked.

From the traditional clan perspective, should the bride’s gown be cut from her father’s clan tartan or her fiancée’s?

[@teganlewis2284]

Hi guys! Question for ya. I like the idea of presenting the bride with my clan tartan. Do you think it would work with a fly plaid? Example, if I’m wearing my fly plaid and in part of the ceremony, remove it and place it around her like a sash, do you think that could work?

the sash for a handfasting part of the ceremony.

Hello, can you do a video on what an Irish bride would wear? And also what the groom would wear also? Thank you :)

[@galoglaich3281]

vero nica Well whatever is fashionable basically.There are an aran knitwear wedding dresses with celtic motifs and the groom basically a suit with tails on the back.Kilts aren't worn by grooms in ireland thats more a scottish and irish american thing.Brides of franc which is a RTE (republic of irelands national broadcaster) show will give you a good idea of what an irish wedding is like.

[@matty6848]

Most modern brides just wear a white dress these days. It’s very rare for a bride to wear anything remotely Scottish, my wife certainly didn’t although I wore my family colours kilt as did the best man and my other male guests.

In true scottish fashion, I just stole my wife right out of my father-in-law's house, went out of country and when we came back, she was pregnant with our first 🤣🤣🤣
