Got Groom’s Suit Today / Help Me Pick a Tie

Carly, on January 11, 2020 at 9:12 PM Posted in Style and Décor 0 26
I’m so glad we checked this off our to-do list!


We bought him a light grey suit from Belks for $130!! Now, we just have to figure out what color tie he should wear. Our colors are neutrals (grey, brown/tan, white) & green.
But, when I say “green” - the only thing that’ll be green will be the greenery in the bouquet, around the centerpieces, etc.
What color tie do you think would look good?

    What color do you plan on having the other guys wear? Our groomsmen worn red ties so my husband worn silver to stand out. My dress also had silver sparkles so his tie matched my dress.

    Whoops - I should have clarified that in my post! We aren’t having a wedding party - it’ll just be the two of us and my daughter as our flower girl.

    Oh okay. I am not a fan of brown/tan and I think the white would just blend in with his shirt. I would probably do gray to match the suit. I think gray and brown/tan would look odd together.

    I thought so too, but - then when I looked on Pinterest I saw a lot of light grey suits with brown shoes. I definitely wouldn’t want a brown tie, but - I don’t think about something like these pictures look bad?

    They don't look bad. I am more of a fan of black than tan so I would probably go with black shoes and gray tie to match the suit, but since tan is one of your colors down options would be good.

    Your pictures look like those colors would work. I also like the idea of a darker silver/gray tie and black shoes but venue, time of year and all might make the browns a better choice.

    Right, it’ll be an April - Backyard wedding. Not very formal, which is why we went with a suit over a tux...ughhh, decisions, decisions.

    I think it would work for you too - if you wanted to give it a try. It's in the brown family - without being brown. Some of your photos above look like they have champagne ties. Smiley smile

    This is a really nice neutral color. I feel like it would go with anything. When we chose this, my initial dress was champagne/ivory. My new dress is ivory with a lot of bling. (So more so silver). Since we already ordered the "biscotti" accents for the blue suit, I'm having beige flowers incorporated in my bouquet to tie it all together. This is from Men's Wearhouse btw Smiley smile Hope it helps!

    You're welcome! I forgot to add it was like a metallic color, satin fabric. Very nice! And thank you! I believe we only paid 150! Like you, that's a steal considering renting is still like 180 to 200!

    Awesome! Gotta love a good deal Smiley smile Plus, we thought it’ll be good for him to own a suit for future events.
