What color tie or bowtie would go well with this combo?

For a sorority formal.

A repp stripe. Make sure you don't get some kind of awful multi-textured stripe.

^ This, and only this.

however note that "formal" and "nantucket reds" are two great tastes that do not taste great together.
Well, yes, but "nantucket reds" and "sorority girls" go together very well -- if formal means blazer and chinos, you're set. If everyone else is in a dark suit, perhaps not.

Bright pink. With little sailboats.

Seriously, wear a white shirt, and something light colored. Nantucket reds are for obnoxiously loud summer outfits. Bright colors, linen/cotton pastels, madras, seersucker... The world of obnoxious preppy ties is your oyster.
