Am i being really selfish to not want him to wear his kilt?

I have been dreaming about my wedding for as long as I can remember. I was trying on my moms wedding dress when I was 5 and I have a folder on my computer to where i save ideas for planning it. I wish I didnt care so much but i do. I have this picture in my head of me walking down the aisle and him seeing me for the first time in my dress and walking towards him thinking about how i cant wait for him to be my husband. I just have that classic picture in my head of us at the alter, him in a black tux and me in my dress, very elegant. My boyfriend is from Scotland so we are having a reception there and a reception and ceremony in America.  I knew that he would be wearing his kilt in Scotland because its tradition and all the men will be wearing one.  I automatically thought he would just wear a tux in america because he would be the only one in a kilt and he would have that day in Scotland. He told me now that he has to be married in his kilt because of the tradition. I feel like a complete bitch for arguing with him about it but i wouldnt have that picture in my head and the real pictures would forever be focused on his kilt i feel like. I know in Scotland its normal but in america all eyes would be on him and he would  push me and my dress into the background. I cant imagine marrying anyone else and I know it should be about the people and not how the rest of the wedding looks but this has been the thing i have been looking forward to my whole life. I want to be the beautiful bride with the sophisticated and elegant looking man. I offered 2 ceremonys but  he only wants one.  I dont know what to do.
