Most of grooms today wear a tie, and if you are going to pull off one, this guide is for you. Here we’ll tell you how to choose a proper style, fabric, colors and much more. Let’s start!
Colors
Choose the color of your wedding color palette, it’s easy to pick a shade. Talk to your partner about it to look more or less matching. If you have groomsmen, let them wear ties of a different color to make you stand out more, especially if your attire is the same.
Fabrics
It’s best to start with the month the wedding will be held. Fabrics like cotton and linen who are light and breezy are perfect for summery weddings. Other fabrics like wool, tweed, cashmere and different wool blends are more suited for the winter. Rayon, polyester and silk wear well all year round. There are many kinds of silk out there and the quality varies. The best idea is satin, which is glossy and smooth on one side and matte on the other.
The Necktie
This is the most common tie that you’ll see around and it works really well for a wedding. To style your outfit up, choose a sheen finish in a luxurious color to match your wedding’s color scheme. Or for a more contemporary feel opt for a skinny tie to keep you bang on trend. Such a tie is a good idea for any suit: three-piece, two-piece or any fashion look, just consider the colors.

The Bow Tie
The bow tie has made a comeback in recent years due largely to vintage themed wedding trends. This is a smart, quirky alternative to a necktie. Traditionally, it used to be worn with a tuxedo but there are plenty of options to modernize it. Choose a bow tie in a different color – perhaps one that matches the wedding theme or your bride’s shoes. You can still wear a tux with a bow tie for a chic and glam look or go for an ultra-modern look with any suit or just pants and a blazer – there are many gorgeous boho ideas to mix and match your attire.
