Dear styleforumers,

I need your help for the following questions regarding my wedding:

1. Which color of tie to match with anthracite suite, brown shoes and white slim-fit shirt? Shoes are bicolour brown shoes (attached).

2. Is it essential to have French cuff shirt for wedding, or the regular shirt is also fine? I mean, does French cuff shirt mean more elegance that regular one?

Thank you a lot.

either way, get any of these three ties (or ones exactly like them from somewhere else):

Yes, dark grey, charcoal gray (attached).

Thank you a lot for suggestion. I think those color will be fine. Actually, I was thinking of bronze or like-gold color tie to match with shoes and belt... but I do not know if this is a right match.

Go with the french cuffs. It's your wedding!
I'd wear black shoes/belt but these brown shoes are stunning.
Avoid pastels colors for the tie. They look good on navy suits but not so much on charcoal.
I suggest you take pictures of yourself with the clothes you will wear and then decide what's best.

Solid white shirt with french cuffs.

There are classic wedding ties, of which the ones moss posted are perfect examples. I'd get one of those.
