The perfect tie

My friend Amanda (check out her work--it's gorgeous!)sent me a link to some super cute ties she found on etsy. I've been so busy thinking about all the other wedding details, that I haven't even started looking for Dave yet. I passed the link off to him to see what he thinks and I hope he's excited about them as I am. We still have to talk about our color palette and since we are both designers, I bet this will be one of the toughest things to agree on. Whatever it is, red will be a likely accent due to our Maine destination.



They also offer narrow ties in some colors and you can convo them about printing in another color. I am definitely favoriting this listing!



Find these ties in Toybreaker's shop on etsy.

It can all "tie" together.

I was aware of all the things Vera Bradley makes for women, being from the south--it was all over the place! It wasn't until today that I learned she has a line of men's accessories (ties, cuff links and pocket squares!)

Here are some of my favorites, which would team nicely with a few of my invite sets:

Cufflinks, Sittin' in a tree:


I think these would pair nicely with my European Folk design, what do you think?


This tie in "Cambridge Foulard" is so colorful and fun.


I could see it being a part of this invitation suite. I love all the color.


This pocket square in Scarlet Lattice has a vintage appeal.


I imagine this tucked into the pocket of a groom at an Art Deco inspired wedding.

Tie one on

I've posted many things for brides and thought I should share something for the grooms out there. And what a better place to go looking than etsy!

I came across the Cyberoptix TieLab. Not only do they create single ties, you can purchase them for your entire bridal party. And what is even more awesome, is that they have a tie that would go PERFECTLY with my "We heart New York" invitation set.
