Groomsmen ties

Hi all. My bridesmaids are going to be in dusky pink. My groom will be in a tux. Groom decided he wants his groomsmen wearing a black suit instead of a tux.


Should I try and get matching pink ties for the groomsmen or can they wear a black tie? I'm having some difficulties trying to match the tie colours to the same shade as the bridesmaids dresses, and thought a black tie might just take all my problems away.
Will it look ugly if the ties are black? Opinions and advice much appreciated!

    I was having a similar dilemma about ties - but then my friend suggested what if all the guys wear a tie in the colour but all different shades/patterns so then the INTENTIONALLY don't match the bridesmaids because the whole suite of them are mismatched but they do look coordinated with the theme!

    That's a good alternative, except i have to go source for pink ties that look OK and not hideous. Lol. But it's definitely worth considering. Smiley smile


    I'll have a gander

    If they are i black suits I think black ties would potentilly make them look like wait staff so I wouldnt do it If you are struggling to match to the girls pink you could go for a darker pink or even hot pink for contrast but keep them all in the same shade as it least it makes it clear they are part of the bridal party

    So my men folk are not actually wearing ties! Maybe look at Next or M&S if you want high street, as they have a lot of piknk shades at the moment. Or you coukd try TiesRus online or even Amazon have loads, this is where you may find ones closer to your colour scheme
