what colour tie?

Brooksy, 26 November, 2014 at 09:38 Posted on Planning 0 8

Hi ladies - need your help with styling the men, we had planned for all of the men in the wedding party to have navy suits with pink ties and pocket squares, bought the ties and squares because they were on offer, and now H2B has gone and got this suit - which isn't navy but it is beautiful and looks fantastic on him, but doesn't really go with the pink ties - he tried it on and we both agreed it looked a bit daft

    I'm going to be no use at all here with advice on ties but I have to say I really LOVE this suit! Great choice! And the model in the photo is a total hottie...! ? Hehehe! He's brightened up this dreary morning..... x

    Haha, this! I think champagne would work, although I'm sure the pink looks good too! Flash the tie next to the jacket perhaps?

    Lovely suit - I would go for peach or champagne personally.

    I suggest sticking with the other men in pink, and then your groom will stand out. I would think any of the other colours you mention would work for your OH's suit, although it's difficult to tell without seeing the two together. Peach might be nice as it's close to pink, or I think I'd be partial to a bit of mint myself.

    I think champagne would go well. Lovely suit!

    Thank you everyone Smiley smile you've calmed me down - was getting in a right grump this morning... #bridezilla

    The suit is from debenhams and was 40% off (cha-ching!). I am starting to think either a darkish champagne or blue and keep the rest with pink so OH stands out. It might just be the shade of pink we have at the moment, I will see if I can get a picture when I get home. but it really doesn't look good.

    I think we will go down the route of getting a couple and trying them out and then take the rest back (although OH will probably just keep them - he's a sucker for new ties! Lol!)

    I have seen this picture, which I really like, the suits aren't exactly the same but think it could still look good?

    I was going to suggest a gun metal grey colour tie that goes with the blue of the suits, then the groom could have a more flashy one. IYWIM?

    We did a similar thing at my wedding. Groomsmen had ties that almost matched the BMs and my H had a more shiny/flashier one in a similar colour so he stood out slightly (as well as a slightly different suit).

    Agree totally with what a few others have said. My husband had a suit very similar & he wore a light blue tie. The dads & ushers had blue or grey floral ties which had bits of pink on.
