Summer Ceremonies: How to Choose the Right Tie

Summer ceremonies call for both elegance and lightness. Choosing the right tie for a summer wedding or formal event means finding the perfect balance between style, comfort, and seasonal appropriateness. This guide will help you choose the best materials, colors, and combinations to look impeccable in the summer sun.

Lightweight fabrics for hot days

In summer, it's essential to wear ties made from fresh, breathable fabrics:

  • Linen: ideal for a natural, refined look
  • Lightweight silk: perfect for elegant ceremonies
  • Blended fabrics (linen-silk, cotton-silk): offer structure and breathability

Avoid heavy or wool ties, which are less suited for hot weather.

Light colors and seasonal tones

For summer ceremonies, choose:

  • Pastel tones: light blue, sand, lavender
  • Natural shades: beige, sage green, ivory
  • Floral or soft micro-pattern ties for a touch of personality

Avoid dark colors like black or deep burgundy — better reserved for winter months.

Pairing your tie with the outfit

  • With light-colored suits (beige, light grey, dusty blue): choose tone-on-tone or soft contrast ties
  • With white or light blue shirts: go for subtle patterns or pastel solids
  • For the groom: choose a jacquard silk tie or a custom tie coordinated with the wedding theme

Filippo Marchesi’s advice

A summer ceremony tie must balance freshness and elegance. That’s why we select only lightweight, structured fabrics in refined seasonal colors — always handmade in Italy.
