Matching Wedding Ties to Your Emerald, Olive, Lilac & Lavender Palette

Once your spring/summer wedding palette of emerald, olive, lilac, and lavender is set, the next step is to coordinate groomsmen ties. The right tie colour elevates your bridal party’s look, complements your bridesmaid dresses, and ensures your wedding colour scheme flows beautifully from photos to décor.

🎨 Tip: Use greenery in your florals to pull emerald and olive tones through the wedding naturally, even if your dresses are pastel lilac or lavender.
