We love this story so much (and have no idea why we didn’t know about it sooner): Modern Family’s Jesse Tyler Ferguson and his husband, Justin Mikita, are designing a colorful line of limited-edition bow ties in support of marriage equality.

Their organization, Tie the Knot, actually launched in 2012 as a partnership with The Tie Bar, but it recently popped onto our radar with the launch of their 2015 summer collection—which your groom will totally want to check out.

With 15 designs to choose from, the latest collection is bright and festive (it was inspired by the duo’s favorite board shorts) with patterns to suit (see what we did there?) every guy in your bridal party.

Each bow tie retails for $25, with 80 percent of the proceeds going to foundations that support marriage equality and LGBT equality around the world—Freedom to Marry, American Civil Liberties Union and Human Rights Campaign are just a few of the beneficiaries.

Take a look at the entire collection, and order a bunch for your Big Day, here.
