    So FI are in the process of picking ties for our groomsmen, ushers, ring bearers and of course him! Our colors are plum, lavender and green, but we are planning on keeping the attire all in the purple family. We think we've chosen all the ties but I'm a little worried that there are still too many colors going on. I don't think the traditional, super-uniform look, but I want it to look cohesive.

    This is the tux all of them are wearing:

    This is the tie we have tentatively chosen for FI:

    But we were also thinking about maybe having him wear an ivory tie with an ivory vest to match me. 

    This tie is for the groomsmen and we are pretty set on it. The bridesmaids are wearing aubergine/dark plum dresses so it will match them:

    We haven't seen it in person I'm not sure how those dots will look, more pink or lavender...

    FI & the groomsmen will have a purple throated calla lily bout, like this:

    The ushers on the other hand, will have a bout of hypericum berries and kermit mums, like this:

    And we want them to wear a lavender tie to distinguish them from the groomsmen. The one we are looking at doesn't let me get the photo of the site, so you can see it here (the light purple one): http://www.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=317261&cm_mmc=LINKSHARE-_-5-_-57-_-MP557&PartnerID=LINKSHARE&LinkshareID=J84DHJLQkR4-jMdE_3JEzFg3KgD7Zw7veA

    The ring bearers will be wearing the same tux without the jacket, so just the vest, and a mini version of the green mum bout. The flower girls will be in solid ivory dresses with kermit mum kissing balls. These are the ties we were thinking for them:

    So what do you think? Will it all tie together?

    IMO, I would go with slightly lighter eggplant color on the groomsmen, other than that everything goes together!

    Yeah, that tie is pretty dark, but FI loves it! We haven't seen it in person so we're going to order it and compare it to our BM dress swatch. If its much darker, we'll keep looking. Thanks! What do you think of the bouts?
