  3. avatar Kristyn M reply

    Seersucker in any color!

  4. avatar Megan reply

    I love the Mint Julep bowtie! I am getting married the weekend after the Kentucky Derby and mint juleps are the drink of choice!

  5. avatar Elizabeth @ HobbyLobbyist reply

    I am a sucker for a southern guy in a bow tie! My guy would be happy with any of these options, but I am drawn to the second one from the bottom in the left column– the purplish/blue plaid. Thanks for sharing these with your readers!

  6. avatar emily reply

    I like the 14th one in the left column.

  7. avatar Anna reply

    I love the red and navy with polka dots!!

  9. avatar Jenna reply

    I think he would love them all. :)

    But since he is quite the bow tie man I would say second from the bottom right or any of the yellows.

  10. avatar amanda reply

    Being from the south you definitely have to represent your Alma Mater and my fiance would look totally dapper in the red gingham or polka dot bow tie to represent NC State!!! (How bout that win Saturday?!) I love those two the most!! SO cute! I also think the red and white floral is so sweet!!

  11. avatar Ashleigh reply

    LOVING the gingham bow tie or the blue/green checked one (5th from the top)! We just got engaged (eeek! I’m getting MARRIED!) and are trying to decide on our colors and ties vs. bow ties so this would certainly help with the decision making as well as making my groom-to-be look handsome while we decide!

  12. avatar Shelby reply

    So many daper bow ties! Although, I must say my eyes are drawn to that blue gingham beauty. What a more southern way to bring out my beau’s blue eyes than with gingham!?

    congrats on V5 ladies! can’t wait to add the fifth to my collection!

  13. avatar Damaris Mia reply

    Oooo! I love both of the skinny ties! (the light blue and peach one). Can’t wait for the magazine!

  15. avatar Larissa reply

    The Mint Julep bowtie is just adorable!

  17. avatar Carrie M reply

    They are all so beautiful, but I do love those bright red ones!

  18. avatar Allison reply

    My man has been wanting a diamond tipped bow tie for a while now! The green stripped one would look wonderful on him! The bottom right bow tie also has his name written all over it.

  19. avatar Meredith @ Map & Menu reply

    What fun! I love the any of the blue or navy ties with stripes!

  20. avatar Kelsey reply

    I would love to win the light blue seersucker bow tie! It’s is one of his favorite colors, brings out his eyes, and works perfectly for Tarheel football games!!

  21. avatar Julie reply

    Carolina Blue- can’t get better than that!

  22. avatar Kelsey Lou reply

    These ties are DIVINE! I married my sweet hubs Evan in June and we are set to attend a bunch more weddings for our sweet friends this Fall! I am dying over the red/orange & blue medallion beau second from the bottom right! He would look oh so dapper in it!

  23. avatar Sydney H reply

    I love the tiny plaid green and white bow tie, for my boyfriend!

  24. avatar Kelly reply

    My Southern gent loves all things houndstooth (to my UTK-loving chagrin, roll tide…) — so that first one on the top left corner would make him swoon!!

  25. avatar Rachel reply

    I’m an artist, and any of the peachy pinks or yellows are lovely…they’re such fresh, bright hues. Any of the peaches would be really pretty paired with cobalt blue bridesmaid dresses.

  26. avatar Kelly reply

    I absolutely love the pink and green striped one! My Fiance would love this!

  27. avatar Taylor reply

    THIS IS SO HARD! I love all the plaids…ginghams….seersucker…ahh the bright yellows the mellow blues! But I do have to say…. the fiance would probably love the houndstooth bow-tie the best!!

  28. avatar Anna reply

    LOVE, love, love those teal blue striped ties, and the yellow gingham of course! Early Christmas gift for the boy? I think so!! –can’t wait for V5 :)

  32. avatar Katie reply

    The red plaid pattern would be perfect for my hub’s black tie Christmas party…and I love the blue/green checked print right across the “aisle” from it….I could definitely plan my Easter dress around that beauty!!!

  33. avatar Lindy reply

    I love them all! I think my husbands favorite would be that teal gingham tie though! So fun! he would be thrilled with such a fun and southern prize!

  34. avatar Elise reply

  39. avatar Jenna Lea reply

    love the navy diagonal stripe, simple and versatile

  40. avatar Natalie reply

    So hard to pick, they are all so fun! My fiancé would most likely wear the blue seersucker stripe one but is that a purple one with penguins that I see?! LOVE.

  41. avatar sarah der reply

    omg I love them all!!!!! But maybe number 9 from the top, that lovely aqua one!

  42. avatar Christina Setser reply

    The green with the cotton on it. I will be using cotton in my flower arrangements. My wedding is in Charleston, South Carolina on March, 16, 2013. I went to College of Charleston and loved all the southern charm and can not wait to have my southern wedding there. Christina Setser

  43. avatar Emily reply

    Either the lime green with navy stripes or the orange and white seersucker – both would compliment our wedding colors perfectly!

  44. avatar Laura reply

    I would love to get my hubby into the blue madras tie! I’d have a harder time with a bowtie unless it was orange.

  45. avatar Courtney Porter {Dogwood Events} reply

    I love all of the orange and red shades!

  46. avatar Courtney reply

    I love them all! If I had to pick I’d pick the madras bright color one!

  49. avatar Emily reply

    Oh man, all of them? But I think my man, a soon to be UNC alum, would look quite dapper in the Tarheel blue. :o)

  50. avatar Katie reply

    I am OBSESSED with the bowtie 7th from the top in the first column. My bridesmaids are wearing J Crew “Dusty Shale” dresses for my April wedding and I have been having the toughest time finding the perfect bow tie that matches the girls dresses. This one looks PERFECT and adds in another pop of color which I love!!

    Even if I wasn’t selected as a winner…could someone kindly tell me who makes this bow tie? It is amazing!!!

    Love Love Love!

    • avatar Nicole reply

      Hey Katie! The bow tie 7th from the top on the right column is made by Mr. Mustache Bow Tie Co!

  52. avatar Erika reply

    I’m a sucker for anything polka dot, especially a bow tie!!

  53. avatar Kristy reply

    Any of the blue ones :)

  54. avatar Danielle reply

    I love the mint julep bowtie! We are getting married the day of the Kentucky Derby, and it would be so handsome for my groom! Any of the green shades are great though!

  55. avatar Jillian Babbel reply

    i LOVE the cream and green bowtie and would have my groomsmen wear it!

  56. avatar Christina Setser reply

    I am planning on using cotton stems in my floral arrangements and the green bow ties with cotton would be great. My wedding is in Charleston,South Carolina on March 16,2013. I graduated from College of Charleston and love the southern charm of the city. Me and my mom thought the green cotton bow ties would be great. I can not wait for my southern wedding. Thank you so much. Christina Setser

  57. avatar Sue Hawks reply

    I like that snappy lime green tie with the stripe. It would look fabulous on my new son-in-law, (Kyle, a Southern Monogram Wedding Blog from May 5 2012 wedding). He is a lawyer in Elizabethtown, NC and all Southern gentlemen lawyers need to make a fashion statement!

  58. avatar Adam Gilbert reply

    I’m partial to that purple plaid number :-)

  59. avatar ashley valis reply

    The gray with white dots is to die for! I am getting married out side in may, and this will blend in with our blue/gray/green theme perfectly!

  63. avatar Sarah H reply

    I love bowties! If I had to pick just one, it has to be the orange plaid.

  64. avatar Christina Setser reply

    I will be getting married on March 16,2013 in Charleston,South Carolina. I graduated from College of Charleston and love the southern charm of the city. I will be using cotton in my floral arrangements and I love the green cotton bow tie and that is one of the colors I will be using. It would be great for the wedding. I love your web site with so many cool ideas. Thank you very much. Christina Setser

  65. avatar Zachry reply

    My fiance is in love with this blog, and she directed me to this contest! My favorite bowtie is 18 down from the left. I would really like it – thanks for doing this!

  66. avatar Tonda reply

    I am loving all of them, so bright and fun! My favorite is the 5th one down the blue and green one!

  67. avatar JOANNA GOULAH reply

    I absolutley love the light green stripe bow tie (1st column 2nd row). It is very versatile with different colored suits, very simple but elegant

  68. avatar Jenny reply

    So hard to choose….I think the one that best embodies our wedding theme is the bow tie 2nd from the bottom on the right, a combination of southern sophistication for Charleston where my fiance is a chef and English hunt country for Charlottesville where I am in school at UVA.

  69. avatar Kelly reply

    Either the solid yellow or yellow diagonal stripe tie would be a wonderful surprise for my groom for our yellow and gray oceanfront wedding in May! Something about a pop of yellow against a gray suit will add a little spring sunshine to my groomsmen!

  70. avatar Jeanie reply

    They’re all amazing! The green bow tie with the thin blue diagonal stripes would be perfect for our garden themed wedding next year.

  71. avatar Eric Harris reply

    the green and salmon bow tie is swaggarific. love it.

Fireflies, lake weekends, frozen lemon pie, bright (neon) clothes, watermelon, grilling, roasting s’mores at night, freshly cut grass, the smell of sun tan lotion, pistachio ice cream, spending time with family outside and never needing a sweater! Thanks for doing this giveaway – I love Amy Atlas.

    My favorite thing about summer is the way it brings Southern families together. Whether we’re attending concerts in our small town, hanging out at my aunt’s pool, or just sitting on the porch making homemade ice cream, my huge Southern family always spends the summer together and I wouldn’t have it any other way!

    Picnics…fireflies…homemade ice cream…the warmth of the sun and the comfort of spending time with family and friends!

    Oooh, sitting in the backyard under the trees with a sweet breeze cooling the end of the day at sunset, while sipping a glass of wine. It’s so peaceful and quiet!

    What isn’t there to love about summer?! I would have to say my favorite thing about summer are the lazy days spent on the beach that turn into lazy nights grilling out. Oh and of course homemade Cheerwine icecream!

    My favorite part of summer is there’s always a reason for good food and yummy desserts! Whether it’s grilling hamburgers on the porch with friends, or trying a new Popsicle recipe by the pool.

    What’s not to love about summer? Any Southern girl knows that summer is a time to break out cute sundresses and heels (or wedges!), fun jewelry, and spend time outdoors with loved ones. My personal favorite is to a host a family BBQ with home cooking and drinks in mason jars.

    My favorite thing about summer is 4th of July! I always spend the day with my family and friends soaking up the sunshine and cooling off in the pool then eating lots of delicious food (and drinking ice cold sweet tea, of course!) and lighting fireworks.

    Summer reminds me of good times with friends near the water. The breeze off the water and the hot sun are an invigorating combination and give a great tan. Outdoor weddings are lovely and we recently enjoyed our daughters at a historic barn, tented tables and a rented dance floor and band. The patio lights around the dance floor were so romantic when the sun went low…tuxes, frills, and sweet memories with loved ones. The deserts were arranged for a southern belle at teatime.

    Traveling, going to the beach, and enjoying foods fresh from the garden.

    My favorite thing about summer is summer dresses. They are so cool, pretty, and easy.

    Also, the all white display is gorge.

    Summer in Australia means Christmas for us ! Christmas, and BBQ’s, beaches and holidays! Summer in Australia signals the end of one year and the beginning of another – how can we not love summer (our biggest celebration period of the year) !

    I love walks on the beach with the dog, ice-cream, sunglasses and margarita cookouts :)

    Summer means baseball games (Go STLCards!), hanging out on our back deck, and working in the garden!

    Chicago comes alive in the summer. Late night dinners outside, running along Lake Michigan and sundresses.
