Need a shirt and tie for a wedding

DEL 707 · 7 Sep 2017 at 19:37

I got a wedding coming up near the end of the month, but I'm still in need of a shirt and tie.
The bride has asked me to wear a hawaiian shirt for the event, so I'm looking for something more "classy" rather then "explosion in a paint factory"

Groom suggested that I wear a keyboard tie as well, but I think that's going too far. So if anyone can find a nice tie to pair off with thes shirt, it would be appreciated.

Moving past the fact that you've been asked to wear a Hawaiian shirt to a wedding, why would you want to wear a tie with it? :confused:

Because it's a wedding!
What kind of slob would I have to be to not wear a tie.

Sounds like the kind of wedding where you should have replied with "sorry I am washing my hair".

You sound like one of those people who aren't happy unless they're sucking the fun out of anything and everything.

Just a shirt, tie isn't a must, but would be nice if I could grab 1.

Was thinking of something like this.

Mainly black so I could pair it off with a black tie push come to a shove.

Have they asked the rest of the guests to wear such clothing or just you?

No, not really..... Just someone who wouldn't go to a wedding in a Hawaiian shirt......

Lost me at this tbh

Seriously though, a lot of hawaiian shirts with have a cuban style collar so won't work with a tie.

Worth every penny! I can't see why you wouldn't wear it, in fact I bet GD would fund it for you

Having worn the jaguar suit from the same place, I can guarantee you will be the centre of attention everywhere you go!

I would chuck in a couple of quid, on the proviso that he posts lots of pictures of him wearing it
