Help me coordinate colors

I am buying ties for the GM/Dad/Grandpas so that they all match. My colors are a light pink, hot pink and navy blue.
I am not sure which color tie to buy for everyone, here is a picture of the two colors with the flower colors I will be using:

 
The flowers on the L are BM bouquets and on the R is the color of the bouts.

    what if you got the lighter pink for the GM to match the bouts and then the darker pink for the dads/gpas? ETA: or the other way around so that the GM match the bridesmaid bouquets. But I do think the lighter tie matches the bouts better, to answer your original question. Or, are navy ties an option? That way you wouldn't have to worry about matching them to the flowers.

    I didn't think of having different colors for GM, but maybe that would work.
    Maybe I can do navy ties for GM and pink for my Dad and Grandpas...Thanks for the idea!

    No problem! :) this way your GM are a little different than the dads and grandpas (besides the obvious age differences, of course, haha).

    All of our GMs are wearing lavender vests and ties my Dad's will be platinum. Both of our Grandpas will wear blue suits with lavender ties.

    Oh and I chose the darker pink. I think it would stand out better...

    I voted for the darker pink. I hate it when things are too close to the same color. It makes them look like you tried to match them but failed. I ALWAYS pick contrasting colors.
