Help with an Ivory Dress

So I think I found my dream dress - - - but it's a deep ivory color and now I have no idea what color scheme my wedding should be. What color flowers....bridesmaid Dresses.....etc.

Any responses and/or pics greatly appreciated

I had an ivory dress...but I guess it was a lighter ivory...your dress doesn't have to match everything

Here is my dress and my bok

I think you can use whatever colors you want/like. I dont' think an ivory wedding dress should stop you from choosing the colors you would pick if the dress was white.

My dress was ivory and my bouquet was black magic roses. The girls' dresses were chocolate and they had a mix of fall flowers.

My dress is ivory and champagne colored and my bridesmaids are wearing copper. I did not take notice when you are getting married, I am getting married in late September and my girls will be using fall colored roses. I will be using cream colored roses and mini calla lillies. My colors are not set in stone so they could change.

You can also do any color brown for bridesmaid dresses. I would not do champagne though b/c it may be too close to your color.

Good luck.

Don't stress over it! I had an ivory dress and at first, I was really worried about it. You're dress will look good with any colors. Most people probably won't even know its ivory unless you are standing right next to something that is pure white. One suggestions....My husband and groomsmen wore ivory shirts so that it matched my dress.
