Wood Bow Ties

  1. Hassan some great comments from friends and guests at the restaurant.

  2. I ordered this after watching then on Shark Tank and was not disappointed. The product is excellent, easy to adjust to any neck size, and very stylish. A lot of people noticed it and asked me where I got it! I would highly recommend this!!

  3. A constant head turner and for anyone who dares to be exceptional

  4. I am really satisfied with this purchase. It’s kind of the out of the box accessory that hasn’t been taken by the slew of “hipster” who ruin good trends. I was complimented more times than I can count and hit on quite a bit with the focus being this tie.

    I will be back for more!

A Groom's Wedding Responsibilities, Part 1

Posted by Lacey Wilcox on 19th Jun 2015

Fellas, let’s get this out in the open now: don’t let anyone tell you that the groom’s responsibility for his wedding is just to show up on time. It’s not true. The groom’s responsibilities for the wedding might not be as extensive as the bride’s, but he does have them. We’ll help you out with a short list of the groom’s wedding responsibilities in a two-part series. After reading these posts, you should be covered on any and all wedding responsibilities for the groom.

Purchase an Engagement Ring

The first (and one of the most important) wedding responsibilities of the groom is to purchase an engagement ring. While we could go into an elaborate discussion on carat size and style, the most important thing to know is your finance’s personality. Is she a traditionalist? If so, you’re going to want to pick the engagement out yourself and surprise her. Ask her family and friends what they think she’d like, but only just before you’re ready to buy it. If she’s not a traditionalist, you will probably want to get her input. Take the time to notice her reaction to the rings of women around her, and also consider whether she would like to use a band or diamond passed down from a family member.

Choose your Groomsmen

Another wedding responsibility of the groom is to choose the dudes who will play a role in your wedding: the best man, groomsmen, and ushers. As part of this responsibility of being the groom, it’s important to choose your most responsible, dependable friends and members of your fiancé’s family. It’s the groom’s responsibility to choose guys to come for the opportunity to help out and witness a momentous occasion—not just for the beer and wine…or cake.

Choose your Groomsmen Attire

The groom’s responsibility for the wedding is to also help pick out the groomsmen attire. Consider yourself an ambassador for both your fiancé and your friends. If your future wife says she wants shiny pink shirts, then it’s the groom’s responsibility to consider your groomsmen and your fiancé and help find a compromise: “How about subdued pink pocket squares instead?” It is also the groom’s wedding responsibility to make sure the wedding clothes and accessories that maintain your personal style and that of your fiancé’s.

Purchasing Wedding Gifts

As the groom, it’s your responsibility to purchase wedding gifts for those who have played an important role in your wedding party. (Of course, you’ll want to purchase one for your future wife). The most clever of grooms kill two birds with one stone here by buying unique, beautiful gifts that can also be worn during the wedding. For instance, if your groomsmen attire of choice is a blazer, then you could buy the blazer. May we suggest anyone of our expertly crafted hardwood bow tie and lapel flower combos as a unique, handcrafted groomsmen gift your buds will use again and again?

Set Up Hotel Rooms for Your Wedding Party and Guests

Grooms have a responsibility to find your wedding party and wedding guests a place to stay. Often, part of the groom’s responsibility is to pay for this as well, but we understand that this can often get pricey. Select a more mid-range if you’re not paying. Doing this is a courtesy to those who will celebrate your big day, and is one more of the groom’s responsibilities for the wedding.

Gents, you can get started thinking these wedding responsibilities over. We’ll have more for you coming up. If you need help before you hear back from us again, just ask your mom or your soon-to-be mother-in-law. They’ll be more than happy to tell you what to do.

Gray Denim

The Gray Denim Fabric Pocket Square is the outgoing introvert in class. He gets along with most everyone and is sure to be the one to compliment anyone’s outfit. He’s a good-looking kid who prefers to get some attention without being the center of it. Not to mention, he’s the perfect match to many of our wooden bow ties: Earl, Harold, and our Walnut skyline tie.

  1. I purchased the wymsical, maple skyline bow tie as a 34th birthday gift for my daughter’s boyfriend and had it personalized with his initials and date. He loves it! It will most certainly be a conversation starter at his next social gathering! And, it will give personality to an ordinary blue denim or dress shirt! Two Guys (and Shark Tank), way to go as you continue to encourage men to “dress for success”!

  2. So unique! Quality is amazing and the detail is really intriguing! Can’t wait to give this to my fiend who loves bow ties.

  3. Great conversation starter.
    Fun to wear.

  4. We loved the quality of this product and the originality!

  5. The product is great! Gave one to my son fro Christmas and ended up getting another one for my other son in a different wood tone!! They love them!!

    I was also EXTREMELY PLEASED with the customer service!! I had questions and a small request that was dealt with immediately!!!! I would order for this company again!!

  6. I love that the bow ties and fedoras are made in the USA! The employees were friendly and very quick to answer my questions regarding my order. There are so many cool styles of bow ties to pick from and the city skylines are awesome!:)

  7. I saw this company on Shark Tank and was impressed with the product. I reached out saying I needed it by a certain date and they got it to me a week early which was great. They take care of your order right away. 2 thumbs up. I will be ordering something from them for my bday too.

  8. Overall I like the quality Iland uniqueness of the product. However I was a little disappointed with the strap that goes around my neck. I chose everything but that. I wish I could’ve customize that as well. It feels a little cheap

  9. Wearing the bow tie I caused a lot of stunning faces!
    Excellent bow tie.

  10. First off the customer service is top notch. I ordered the Atlanta skyline and it looked great. The bow tie is not the most common apparel these days so it is a bit more noticed, but a wooden one becomes the perfect ice breaker and conversation piece. My favorite tie.

A Guide to Gifts for Groomsmen: Things to Wear

Posted by Lacey Wilcox on 31st Jul 2015

If you have an upcoming wedding, one of your responsibilities as the groom is to choose a gift for your groomsmen. Your wedding may be fast approaching, and chances are you don’t have any idea what groomsmen gifts to buy. We’re going to help get you through this wedding season though. We’ve already laid out a groom’s wedding responsibilities guide, but now we want to focus on some of the other details. This groomsmen gift giving guide will make hooking your groomsmen up with great gifts as easy as pie.

We think choosing gifts for groomsmen that they can wear is your best bet. The key is to choose groomsmen gifts that play to their unique brand of dapper style. But choosing gifts that your groomsmen will wear is your chance to be remembered as the most thoughtful groom they know.

  1. Watches – We think watches are a great groomsmen gift because they’re something your fellas will wear and use all year long. If most of your groomsmen are gents of the well-dressed variety you’ll have an easy job. You can find great watches around the $100-mark and probably cheaper if you look hard. Go with something classic for the most versatility—leather band, solid color face, 3-hands, day & date. Anything more and you run the risk of gifting a ticking paperweight.
  2. Kicks – Now we’re getting into that two-birds-with-one-stone territory. It’s always a great idea to give your groomsmen a gift that they’ll wear in your wedding. A unique pair of shoes can identify them as members of your wedding party and they should also be smart enough to utilize afterwards. We don’t know what your budget or style is but you could go top-shelf with all that oil money and score you groomsmen some custom leather cowboy boots. Or do something more relaxed like Tom’s or our all-time favorite sneaker to dress up or down with—Adidas Sambas.
  3. Wooden Bow TiePocket SquareLapel Flower – We have another two-birds-with-one-stone option for you because we know you’re as efficient as you are dapper. Another great wearable gift for your groomsmen is a dapper accessory like a wooden bow tie or unique pocket square to be worn above the waist on your wedding day. Hardwood accessories like a wooden bow tie or handcrafted lapel flower are always a good option because groomsmen can wear them after the wedding. A unique, hardwood accessory like a wooden bow tie, pocket square, or lapel flower is useful for dates, interviews, sales pitches, and one-upping your co-workers with dapper style.

Of course you already know we’re the authority on item no. 3. So be sure and shop our hardwood accessories for the perfect groomsmen gifts. You could risk it by buying silk long ties and pockets squares or metallic lapel flowers/pins, but the worst thing about traditional accessories like those is that they’ll only play to a few crowds.

Not so with our handmade wooden bow ties, lapel flowers, and pocket squares. They dress up or down easy, and they always look unique and trendy.

Stay tuned for more entries to our Groom’s Gift Giving Guide series. We’ve got your back.

Padauk Skyline

  1. Loved the product. Thought it would be a great gift. Definitely did not disappoint and it was. Just wish i had given it to someone better.

  2. This is my second purchase of a skyline bowtie and again it’s spectacular. I absolutely love the craftsmanship. A very superior product that I look forward to wearing.

  3. Bow tie and pocket square arrived earlier than we thought it would. The skyline was true to form. The bow tie was made from very high quality hardwood and my son-in-law loves to wear it! He says it’s very comfortable and everyone thinks it’s a regular cloth bow tie. What a terrific gift!

  4. I love the color of the wood and the cloth center is perfect. I’m somewhat disappointed in the engraved skyline. It’s very hard to see and the details are of poor choice. There was no way to preview the skyline online before I ordered the bow tie. Therefore, I was just going from the great skyline options chosen by your company to be displayed on your website. That the Pittsburgh skyline would also represent the city well with its awesome buildings, views, landscapes and or natural beauties. There are so many better Pittsburgh skylines to choose from for Pittsburgh. Someone not from Pittsburgh would never recognize that this was Pittsburgh without telling them. The signature fountain at Point State park didn’t even make the skyline. It is in almost every picture of Pittsburgh. The iconic inclines on Mt Washington also failed to make the cut! So sadly to say, I am very disappointed in the choice of skyline features for Pittsburgh.that you have chosen to use.

    I will wear the tie because of the choice of wood, color and and style. But, pray that I don’t have to continually explain the engraving!

  5. I bought this bow tie for my husband on his birthday. He loved it! He received so many compliments. It’s just a really special bow tie and he looks great wearing it!

  6. I got this bow-tie for my dad for Christmas, and he loves it completely! I am so glad I also got it engraved as well.
