Basics

Tie The Knot

Tie The Knot was founded to combine all of our favorite things: humor, style, individuality, fashion, art, and equality. Founded by Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Justin Mikita, the goal of Tie the Knot is clear: to advocate for the civil rights of gay and lesbian Americans throughout the United States and to look damn good while doing it.

It’s simple: We will release a collection of neckwear seasonally, inspired by our favorite art, fashion, things we see on the street, and things in our living room. Each bow tie will be produced in limited quantity to inspire and promote uniqueness & individuality. All proceeds from the sale of the bow ties will go to various organizations that are in the trenches fighting for the civil rights of gay and lesbian Americans every single day.

We will keep an active blog on our website which will keep you up to date on relevant news and marriage equality developments throughout the country.
Millions of Americans are denied the basic civil right to marry the person that they love.

So come on, suit up, and Tie The Knot—so that someday, we can too.

Why The Owl?

Everyone knows that Owls symbolize Wisdom but they are also a symbol of foresight, perspective and patience which is something people fighting for marriage equality must possess. Also, we think Owls are cute.
