White linen or silk pocket square with tux

[JohnGalt]

...for my wedding?

 

[Dr Huh?]

Are you wearing a silk tie? A bow tie?

 

[JohnGalt]

Silk, matte regular tie...I wanted to wear a bow tie but she is really against it for some reason.

Then be 'really against' wearing a 'tux' and wear a lounge suit instead.

I assume tv fold? I can't imagine silk doing a good tv fold, so linen?

I like a white silk puff with a tux. But dude, don't wear a long tie.

i really don't want to and think that once i have it tailored and she sees it on me it will be apparent that a bow tie is necessary.

Just tell her you will wear a regular tie and on the day wear a bow tie. What is she going to do?

Castrate me on the honeymoon...

I'd go for linen... and please for your sake, if you really want it, lobby for the bow tie.

 

[fcuknu]

yeah, I would trust a woman's opinion when it comes to menswear...

Linen pocket square with a TV fold, as others have said.

 

[Manton]

Linen. Period.

 

[SkinnyGoomba]

Isnt it your wedding too?

soo many guys i know have the impression that 'compromising' means giving her everything she asks for.

White linen square, folded, or cream silk square, poofed. My personal opinion is that white silk is disgusting.
