I love a well dressed man

Rawr!

A couple of weeks ago, Chris and I went down to the Celtic Shoppe in Campbell, and we totally ordered a BUNCH of stuff.

Chris is going to get married in a traditional formal Scottish kilt.  Well, mostly traditional.  He already had the kilt and sporran (that’s the bag that hangs in front).  We needed to order him the jacket, which is called a Bonnie Prince Charlie.

We wanted to order from a local small business, and we wanted it to come from Scotland.  The Celtic Shoppe was the perfect place, as they’ve been a Campbell mainstay for over 30 years and the folks who run it are the sweetest ever.

So, we went down, he was fawned over and fitted, and we ordered his Charlie!  It’s coming from Scotland, so it’s going to be another month before it gets here, but he is going to look SMASHING.

While we were there, we also ordered the ties for our groomsmen, and kilt pins which we will make into buttonieres for the boys.  They’re going to be awesome, and I can’t wait to see them.

In addition to all this amazingness, Chris found his wedding shoes.  We’ve been talking about mixing traditional and offbeat into our wedding, and Chris’s outfit so far had been completely traditional.  However, he had a brilliant idea and went looking, then found the most fantastic two-tone doc martens you’ve ever seen.  They are going to look fabulous, and then I get to see him wear them lots and lots after the wedding!
