The Tie, the Bow-tie or the Cravat

Posted on June 2, 2014 at 2:53 pm in Weddings

There are many different clothing options for the groom at every wedding, and once the suit has been chosen it’s typically a choice between a tie, a bow-tie or the cravat.

The tie

A typical tie can be a nice addition for a groom, and the main benefits come with the range of designs and styles you can choose between. It must also be said that ties can work well with a wide range of shirts and suits, and there are also a range of materials being used today.

A Bow-tie

These tend to be seen as rather traditional, but they have come back into the spotlight over the last few years. You can choose between clip-on bow-ties, or the traditional type that you must tie yourself, and these look especially nice with formal waste coats or braces.

A Cravat

These are a kind of tie, and they tend to be known as the bushier version. They puff out quite a bit and they’re often used with the long style suit jackets. These do not work well with all suits and they’re often used in wedding where top hats and tail jackets are used.
