Scottish Wedding Dresses

A Scottish wedding is a traditional wedding performed by the people of the Scottish Highlands. Though it has been practiced for a several number of centuries already, there are still a lot of Scots who choose to celebrate their weddings the traditional way.

How Scottish Wedding Dresses Look Like

One of the distinguishing factors of this wedding tradition can be found on the dresses that the couple wears. The groom has traditionally worn a plaid fabric which covers him from the waist down and the rest of the cloth is worn over the left shoulder. The design of the fabric shows to which clan the groom and the groomsmen belong. Today, only lower part, the kilt, can be seen. Grooms now usually wear a coat and tie to cover their upper body.

As for the brides, they usually wear a white gown. Any design of gown will do, but a few touches of embroidery will distinguish it as being used in a Scottish wedding such as a Celtic knot. But what makes the wedding gown a truly Scottish wedding dress is the presence of a tartan (plaid) shawl around her shoulders or waist. The tartan’s design should be that of the groom’s clan. Wearing one symbolizes that the bride is already a part of the groom’s clan.

Where to Find Scottish Wedding Dresses

Unless you are outside Scotland, it would be easy to find a traditional Scottish wedding dress. There are specialty shops that offer not only the creation of these dresses but also the planning for this type of wedding. Availing of this kind of package will surely save you a lot of money. Aside from that, you can be sure that the ceremony is done the right way.

You can scour stores that offer this kind of service. But if you’re busy or are in front of the computer most of the time, you can also look for these stores over the internet. Doing your business over the net is often more convenient because you will be given a quote of your expenses as well as an idea of how the dresses will look like in a matter of a few mouse clicks.
