BUT SHOULD I WEAR A NECKTIE?


Neckties are having a moment + you’re all for it (so are we)! But why? Well they’re certainly not new—— shawls and neck scarves have been a styling element for ages which is why it gives timeless vibes not just trending. Rather than a simple trend, it’s an invitation to be playful, personal, and unique with your look, integrating something into your ensemble that feels entirely your own.


So here’s how to choose the right one for your wedding dress + why it will elevate your look:

1. MATERIAL

MATERIAL—


From soft tulle to lace or silk chiffon, there are several options. tulle will offer an airy layer without overwhelming…so if your dress already has some detail or ruching, tulle will be a delicate accent.


Lace is our go to with a clean dress, it pulls in a romantic element in a very effortless way. Or there is chiffon which eludes ethereal elegance with its unmatched fluidity. Bottom line, you have options.

2. VEIL ALTERNATIVE

VEIL ALTERNATIVE— 


As a whole, I think you either want a veil or you don’t…it’s a very personal choice.


So if you’re seeking a bride moment, that touch of drama sans veil, then a necktie can be that accessory for you. It lends all the fluidity and texture to elevate your look without going the traditional route.

3. TWO LOOKS

TWO LOOKS— 


While you certainly can style a necktie AND a veil (it’s a bit of a balancing act) we’re seeing so many brides use these accessories as a way to create two looks with one dress. Veil for the ceremony and then the necktie as a reception/ party look——and yes, the movement will be gorgeous on the dance floor!

studs — if you’re a minimalist, a stud is the perfect finish accent that will add interest in an understated manner.
