I'd lend you mine but it's a bit far to drive from Texas.

I couldn't find a hire store but you could maybe contact these guys to see if they could lend you one.

Here's a list of Brit stores in GA

and a site for weddings in Atlanta

Good luck!

You could also try any local theatre.
They'll probably put you in contact with any prop/costume hire companies in the area.

Thanks a lot for your help, I actually searched online for a couple of hours and found a shop called the celtic-cupboard about 20 minutes from my home. Never even knew it was there!
Phoned them up and they have just started taking orders for kilts, so they had one sporran on display in the shop and let me buy it

My wife went to pick it up and called me from the shop and told me they sell, PG tips, hob nobs, flakes and the best yet Irn Bru
