What Do Grooms Typically Wear in Glasgow?
Grooms in Scotland generally wear tartan kilts in the colour of their clan or a colour that matches the theme of the wedding. They may pair this with an Argyll or Prince Charlie jacket and a fly plaid. Other accessories may include kilt socks or hose and flashes, a sporran, and a sgian dubh. Sometimes they may opt for a tartan or tweed suit, or a plain suit with a touch of tartan instead. Tartan accessories may include ties, cummerbunds, cufflinks, or braces.
Grooms may choose to hire an outfit for their wedding rather than spending a lot of money on one they'll only wear once. The cost of renting groom attire can range from £70 to £150 for both suits and Highland dress. The cost of buying groom attire varies widely depending on the label. You can spend whatever you like, but the average price of a suit is generally £150-£200, not including alterations. Highland dress will generally cost more as it's usually made to measure. A full kilt outfit bought brand-new will probably cost at least £500.
