There are only so many ways to style our guys, so I wanted to find the perfect ties for them. At first, when the color scheme was multicolored, I found a madras plaid tie that was super cute, but then I changed the colors and that had to be scrapped.

I kept an eye out for ties whenever I walked through stores, but didn’t see anything that was wedding appropriate and affordable. But a few weeks ago, while I was browsing the Vimeo page of one of my favorite wedding videographers, I saw this wedding:

Brian & Tina’s SDE // Taipei, Taiwan from Elysium Productions on Vimeo.

I seriously love this video. The bride is one after my own heart—she has that blend of DIY and glamour that I’m trying to achieve with my own event. Plus, Elysium just makes me cry every. single. time.

Sorry, digressing. I think you can tell by now that I have a hard time staying on topic.

Anyway, did you see the ties on those groomsmen?? I adore stripes and this became an instant obsession. A quick Google search for “skinny stripe pink ties” brought up this website. (Straightforward, no?) JACKPOT. Cute, easily paired styles in almost every color. And affordable—some are on sale for almost nine dollars. So I made up a few combos to see what might work in our color scheme, and then I’ll run this handy numbered collage by Mr. Crepe to get an idea of what he and our groomsmen might like to wear.

I’m leaning toward #2, but we might end up with #4.

Which set do you think Mr. Crepe should choose?
