Use tie clips to inject personality into your wedding day (while also keeping your tie out of your face)

Outdoor wedding season is here! If you’re wearing a tie without a jacket you might want to think about clipping it down.

Check out these options I’ve curated from Etsy and keep your tie in place in style. Psst: these also make great gifts for the tie-wearing members of your wedding brigade.

Louise & Adam’s gothic fairytale wedding

It all started with a birthday card featuring purple and white dragons… and led to the gothic splendor that is this richly-hued fairytale wedding. There’s a little bit for geeks, a little bit for film buffs, and a whole lot for those in the mood for romance. And when you see the details of the rich purple taffeta custom-made dress, you’ll swoon.

A delightfully macabre Victorian gothic wedding

Molly and James’ wedding at The Gatehouse of Lionsgate Events Center in Lafayette, Colorado is a gothic Victorian feast for the eyes. We’re talking belly dancers, tarot card readers, hula hoopers, and a royal blue gown designed by a Cirque du Soleil costume designer. The macabre theme continued with death tag wedding place cards, black-painted trees, a creep-tastic candy buffet, and a blue and white spider web cake.
