Our latest Ask Emmaline question comes from Bethann, who’s got a very specific—and very relatable—mission: finding cheap ties that actually match her eucalyptus bridesmaid dresses from David’s Bridal. (Yes, we see you, bridesmaid squad color-coordinators. This one’s for you.)
Ask Emmaline: Where Can I Find Cheap Ties to Match My Eucalyptus Bridesmaid Dresses?
Here’s what Bethann wrote:
“Hi Emmaline! I’m hunting for cheap ties for my wedding, specifically to match the eucalyptus bridesmaid dresses from David’s Bridal. Everything I’ve found is crazy expensive and I’m terrified it won’t actually match. Any advice?”
Bethann, you nailed a classic wedding dilemma. Matching ties to a very particular bridesmaid color? That’s like hunting for a unicorn in the accessory world. But don’t panic just yet.
I’ve got a secret weapon for you: an Etsy shop called LuffDo. These folks are basically the tie ninjas of budget-friendly, color-accurate neckwear. Their reviews? Stellar. Their prices? Around $15 a pop, which is basically a steal when you consider that most places charge $25+ for something that might be close—but probably won’t.
Pro tip: order early and grab all your ties in one go to dodge those pesky shipping fees. Trust me, your wallet will thank you.

Bonus: Quick Tie-Shopping Hacks for the Budget Bride (or Groom!)
- Sample Swatches: If possible, order fabric swatches before committing to a batch of ties. It’s worth the small cost to avoid a color mismatch emergency.
- Think Beyond Neckties: Consider bow ties or knit ties if they better suit your wedding vibe. Sometimes different textures make a color look even richer!
- Mix & Match: If you can’t find the exact color, pick complementary shades that tie your palette together.
- Local Shops & Tailors: Don’t forget to check out local boutiques or tailors—sometimes they offer custom ties at reasonable prices.
- DIY Option: Feeling crafty? Some Etsy sellers offer DIY tie kits where you can customize your fabric and style.
