At Kilts 4 U they’ve seen it all.
From kilt pleats worn at the front to grooms showing a bit more thigh than their guests were banking on.
With so many elements to a traditional kilt outfit, it’s understandable that things can go wrong.
But you can cut the stress and eliminate the fashion faux pas by booking the company’s on the day fitting service.
Instead of panicking on your wedding morning, let a member of the Kilts 4 U team come to your venue and dress you and your wedding party.
The service was launched two years ago due to customer demand and Selina Carlton from the company explains just why it began.
“Many guests in our groomswear parties have never worn a kilt outfit before and need professional help to make sure they look perfect for all the photos.
“After all, this day has sometimes been three or four years in the planning.”
Bridal dressing services are now in high demand and Selina and the team want to ensure grooms receive just the same level of attention to detail on their big day.
“Many grooms across a wide spectrum order the service,” she explains.
“Kilts can be a little more challenging and we never forget it’s the biggest day for both people getting married.
“How many days in your life are you in the spotlight as much as on the day you get married?”
You could order the service just for yourself and your main men, but Kilts 4 U will always rise to the occasion.
“We recently facilitated an American wedding at an iconic Scottish venue for 46 family members and groomsmen,” Selina recalls.
“The couple and their whole family were delighted and considering the whole thing was arranged digitally, we were very proud of the whole achievement.”
The on the day fitting service starts at £350 depending on the size of wedding party to be dressed and the distance to be travelled by the expert dressers who will send you down the aisle looking fantastic, confident every pleat is in place.
