Poll: Fave Tie

mamameech · February 2012

You're prob sick of this groom attire indecisiveness but I'm so not comfortable making a decision regarding men's attire lol

So we've settled on the "Legend" tux from Calvin Klein; FI liked it the best.
I cannot find the right "purple" tie for the best man. I LOVED the one I found on The Knot but I cannot find anything like it anywhere! Plus I'm very worried that it won't fully match my sister's dress (MOH).
I'm thinking I'll just go with a nice grey/white tie and the Best Man can have the coloured boutenniere to match the MOH.

Now, I came across a really nice paisley tie that I think would flow really nicely with the "feathery" theme. I've posted a pic below along with a nice striped tie that I also think is lovely. I added a pic of the suit too to help you visualize them together

A purple option just for comparison....

I know the purple is proving to be a pain, but it's still my fav. =/ Not that the gray wouldn't look nice (in case you just can't find anything) but I love the purple.

Where are you looking for ties? Can you look anywhere or are you going through a rental place?

I've looked in the stores, online, etsy... everywhere. I've even posted the pic of the one I want on message boards hoping to get a hit. Nothing :(

I think the stripes are easier on the eye and photograph better than the paisley.

adktd2boots · February 2012

I'm a sucker for paisley.

Purple is my favorite too...have you thought about a solid purple tie? Stripes can be hard to find one you like. My second vote would be the gray paisley.

meagandal · February 2012

I will always vote for paisley! Its my fave

I like this purple paisley tie

bridalmomma · February 2012

Voted other. I would have FI wear the paisly tie (it really does match the feather look!) then have the BM wear the striped purple tie,,,, if it doesn't match your sister exactly being striped it won't be as obvious! I alsothink you should have your little boy match your FI in pattern but would put him in the bowtie!

There now I have solved everything...LMAO!!

I think a bowtie for the little guy would be awesome, but I think I have a secret love for them

Solid sounds good.

BMcLeodTeam · February 2012

Like some other ladies here, I like the idea of the purple, and the pop of colour it will give

npott044 · February 2012

I love the idea of purple and gray so anything purple has my vote. I tried to get my FI in a purple tux but he refused.

mamameech · February 2012

I never expected this decision to be such a challenge!!

and I never thought of looking on Amazon - OMG now I have too many choices LOL

I stumbled across these sets that I love - I'm def a fan of the paisley!

Totally ties in with the feathers

wineo929 · February 2012

I'm loving the purple paisley! I'm going to start the hunt for my FI's peach tie soon and I'm hoping it won't be too difficult! let us know what you decide!

Sarah&Eric2012 · February 2012

I originally voted for the grey paisley but I LOVE LOVE LOVE the ties you just posted with the grey background and the purple paisley print. I think that's a great option.

abcollins08 · February 2012

The purple is my favorite but I voted for the grey stripped tie. Only because I think the dark stripe really coordinates with the color of the suit. I think whatever you choose will look great, all eyes will be on you but your eyes will be on him so go with whatever you love!

mamameech · February 2012

those sets are all on sale for a great price too ---- argh!!! this is so tough!!

adktd2boots · February 2012

I'm addicted to Amazon. I shop there all the time (maybe because I live in BFE and Amazon gives me free 2 day shipping)
