    My dress has a very lovely silk sash that ties in the back.

    The problem is - I hate bows.  Just hate them.

    Does anyone have any suggestions for ways to neatly tie the sash in the back (or jury-rig it or DIY it) so that I have an elegantly tied, without an unsightly bow?

    I was experimenting with tying it in a knot that is used for men's ties... but I still wasn't loving it.

    Thanks!!

    I have seen some beautifully tied sashes, although I'm never good at tying them myself.  Here is a link to a picture of a sash that's not tied in a bow, it's kind of a cool alternative.  Best Wishes!

    hey, vhoef02, I was going to post that pic, too.  Great minds...  Different ways to tie sashes? :  wedding Icon Biggrin

    Here's another sash that is really simply tied. 

    Also, could you posiibly connect the sash with a brooch or pin-on flower?  You wouldn't have to tie it, and it would be really beautiful.
