Ivory Wedding Dress

Hi,
Just wondering if there are any brides out there that are wearing an ivory colored dress. If so, what color shirts are the guys in your bridal party (including hubby) wearing? Also, do you know how this color dress will show up in photographs? Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Liz

Re: Ivory Wedding Dress

Ivory is my favorite color, I am not a big fan of white. My FI will wear ivory/off white vest and my groomsmen will wear peri winkle blue vests.

It should photograph beautifully.

Groom ivory shirt
Groomsmen white shirts

My dress was actually ivory and so was my veil. The guys all wore ivory shirts (I debated this too). I just posted my review recently.

Re: Ivory Wedding Dress

I wore an ivory dress and all the guys wore white shirts. No problem at all. Mind you my dress was a very pale shade of ivory.

Re: Ivory Wedding Dress

My dress was Ivory. My husband wore an ivory vest and white shirt. Everyone was in white shirts. Contrary to what I was told by tux places - it didn't make my dress look dirty.

And I preferred the white shirts to ivory.

there's another pic in my profile that shows more of my dress, if you want to see another example of how the color photographs.

Re: Ivory Wedding Dress

I am wearing ivory (see pic in profile) and I am going to have the guys shirt in white. However, it was a change from white and I already have FG dresses I love picked out...do you think it would be weird to have her in white if I am in ivory (it is a light ivory)

Re: Ivory Wedding Dress

I'm wearing an ivory dress and truthfully, never gave it any thought as to what color shirts the guys wear. I have to write this information down!

Daisy - was that question for me? If so, thanks for the compliments.

The pictures were taken at Lands End.

Re: Ivory Wedding Dress

I wore an ivory gown and I was very particular about everything being coordinated...so, my DH wore an ivory shirt, tie and vest, and the guys wore ivory shirts too. But, my girls wore a mocha/taupe-type color, so it worked well that way.

But, judging from what everyone else is saying, it sounds like pure white on the guys wouldn't be much of an issue either.
