Emerald is the richest green and the most formal. It looks sharp with a black or navy tuxedo and fits a wedding palette of emerald, gold and ivory, which many 1920s-themed weddings use. Groomsmen can all wear emerald while the groom picks a black or gold bow tie to stand apart in photos.
Light Green Bow Tie for Spring and Summer
Light green is softer and suits daytime events: a garden party, a spring wedding, a graduation or a summer office party. Pair it with a light gray, tan or beige suit and a white shirt. Outdoors, a lighter shade also shows up better in sunlight than a very dark one, which can look almost black in photos.
Dark Green Bow Tie and Holiday Styles for Men
Dark green paisley and plain dark green ties suit autumn and winter, worn with charcoal, brown or tweed-look jackets. For Christmas parties, the holiday print styles add a snowman or a green and red pattern, and the festive bow tie also comes in green for New Year's Eve.
The beaded style pairs a black base with green beads, a subtle option for an evening event where plain black feels too strict. Men's sizes are the norm here, but any of these bow ties works on a woman's collar too.

A dark or emerald green bow tie in a plain fabric can work at a relaxed black-tie event. For a strict dress code, black is the safe choice.
