When attending a wedding as a relative, choosing the right tie is extremely important

A wedding is a special day for the bride and groom. This is a situation where manners are required even if you are a relative. Ties, in particular, are placed around the face, so they greatly affect the impression you make. For those who are unsure of "What color should I choose?" or "What pattern should I go for?", we will carefully explain the criteria for choosing a tie.

What color tie should relatives choose for a wedding?

A white tie is the most formal and safe option.

If you are attending as a family member, a white tie is standard. White symbolizes purity and cleanliness, making it the perfect color for formal occasions. Close relatives of the bride and groom, such as their fathers and siblings, will especially want to wear plain white or woven ties.

Light grey and silver options available

Depending on the atmosphere and position of the ceremony, shiny silver or light gray ties are also OK. However, avoid black or flashy colors and choose bright, understated colors.

Tie materials and patterns suitable for formal occasions

The material is "silk" or high-quality polyester

In formal situations, Shiny silk material is recommended. It is flexible and luxurious, and the knots are neatly arranged. If you want something easy to use, high-quality polyester material is also recommended.

The pattern is either "plain" or "woven"

Avoid flashy patterns and stick to plain or woven patterns (jacquard weave). Modest designs convey courtesy and dignity.
