The Best Ties to Wear to Weddings

It's always a dilemma working out the best tie to wear to a wedding. More often than not, it will depend on the season, the location as well as the suit you're wearing it with but if we know one thing's for sure; ties are essential for weddings. 

Whether you're attending a relaxed coastal wedding on the beaches of Bali, or you're living it up at a lavish French chateau, this article will take you through all the best ties to wear to a wedding.  

Traditionally, weddings were generally attended with silk and satin ties due to their formal sheen and more "sleek" appearance. But as wedding ceremonies have changed and become drastically more varied over the years, as has the institution of wedding ties overall. Now, you're going to be looking at linens and cottons if you want to make a modern statement but of course, it all depends on the setting. 

 

Ties for a Beach Wedding

One of the most idealised wedding locations you can possibly think of; beach weddings require a special kind of tie. Forget your sheen satins and silks, beach weddings call for linens, pastels and maybe even florals. An overtly loud satin tie may overwhelm the setting and start to cause conflict with the relaxed theme.

 

A textured linen fabric makes the perfect beach wedding tie because it has a rustic appearance that suits the relaxed vibe. Opt for soft baby blues, greys and khakis if you want to truly capture the coastal surroundings.

Burgundy, emerald, navy blue or ivory ties are superb colour choices ties as they'll give you a traditional, polished look. If you want to spruce it up even more, you can consider going for a textured satin or polka dot tie

Ties for a Country Wedding
