My dad wants to wear a kilt

AileenK18

Im part scottish and h2b is engilsh so he will not be wearing a kilt same goes with his groomsmen. Im worried that my dad will stand out too much if i let him wear a kilt. Will it be okay if he does or does he have to be the same as the other men.

Your dad, the FOG, the MOB, and the MOG are not members of the WP.  As such, they get to wear whatever they want to.  Let this go.  Your dad will look awesome.

Good luck.

I think you should let your dad wear what he wants.  If your family & friends know you're part Scottish then nobody is going to think twice if he shows up in a kilt.

Kilts are awesome. Let him wear his kilt!

If your dad wants to wear a kilt - why not?

I love kilts. They are perfectly acceptable for a wedding. Go Aileen's Dad!

Why are you afraid he'll "stand out?" What possible harm could come of that?

Also, it's not your place to "let him" wear something. He's an adult and he can dress himself without your help or your stamp of official bridal approval.

welll........

my fiance wants to wear a top hat.  we are not in any way shape or form having a top hat type of wedding.  i hate top hats.  i am going to walk down the aisle and be thinking, "omg i'm marrying mr. peanut."  but you know, that's probably a good thing because i will be too busy laughing in my head to think about how everyone is staring at me.  so, win, win?  sort of?

also my dad is a pastor and wants to wear a collar at our wedding, instead of wearing a suit.  i'd much rather he wear a kilt!

your dad will totally stand out.  but so what?  nobody should judge you for it.  in fact i bet at brunch the next day, most of your hung over friends will be all "omg aileen's dad is so awesome, he rocked the kilt!  her family is so fun!"

hug your dad, tell him he better wear the kilt or else and then make sure you share a shot of whiskey at your wedding.

I don't see what the problem is.  It's honoring your heritage, and it sounds really neat to me.  I don't see why you're worried so much about him taking attention from the woman in the big white dress. 

Besides, from someone who doesn't have her dad anymore, feel blessed to have him there with you.  You're a very lucky girl.

I hope someone comes to my wedding wearing a kilt!  In fact, now that I think about it, I'm going to ask my dad's best friend if he'll wear his.
