Looking for wedding necktie in Los Angeles, in a hurry... which are the finest trad menswear stores?

I'm getting married in about 10 days, and my long-awaited Sam Hober necktie just arrived... and while it's beautiful, I can see I misjudged the color. Badly. It's a navy blue garza grossa... that clashes with the darker and warmer navy blue of the suit.

So, I think I need to try again. I'm afraid of ordering another hue after what just happened, and there isn't much time, besides. I want something that's both appropriately formal and still has character like the garza grossa, preferably in a dark midnight blue or something like that...

I've got two days off before the wedding... and L.A. is a big city. I figured I'd go to Saks and Barney's in Beverly Hills, but are there better places to look?

Thanks,
mic

In addition to Barney's, Check out Carroll and Co on Canon of Wilshire in BH:

Their suits and sport coats are conservative in an "oldmanish"
kind of way, but their neck tie collection, at least the last time I looked,
is very extensive.

Thanks! That's the sort of suggestion I was fishing for. I feel pretty stupid letting it come down to the wire like this, but I'm working constantly and our whole wedding is a little bit by-the-skin-of-our-teeth.
