POLL: Ivory Shirt or White Shirt? (Girls with Ivory Gowns, or Girls with White Gowns and an Opinion)

POLL: Ivory Shirt or White Shirt? (Girls with Ivory Gowns, or Girls with White Gowns and an Opinion)

Ok. My dress is ivory (and a definite ivory - not diamond white, but not champagne or spun gold). My BM dresses are navy with an ivory sash and the FGs are wearing all ivory.

What do the boys wear? FH will be going shortly (hopefully ) to look at tuxes and I'd like to set this for him since he'll be picking everything else. They will be looking at black tuxes with either

pewter ascot and vests (for all)
OR
all black for the GM and I guess all ivory for FH

What color shirt do they wear? I don't want them to look dirty in an ivory shirt when standing by themselves but I don't want my dress, the girls sash and the FG dresses to look dirty standing next to their crisp white shirts.

Help!!!

I voted Ivory, so they all match.

Ivory would look great to match the girls sashes.

I'm having the same dilemma--my dress is definitely ivory. So I thought ivory shirts, so that my dress doesn't look 'off.' But I wasn't too happy with that decision. My mom made an excellent point--ivory shirts only became an option very recently! So, before that everyone wore white shirts anyway, and people never even thought about it. So, I'm going with white.

Go with ivory.

Ok, then what does FH wear if they're wearing white shirts? To match me he'd technically have to wear an ivory vest and tie - would that look dumb over a white shirt? Should he be in all black too with the rest of them?

Re: POLL: Ivory Shirt or White Shirt? (Girls with Ivory Gowns, or Girls with White Gowns and an Opinion)

I had an ivory dress and also had the same poll before making my decision.

We went with ivory shirts and it didn't look dirty at all.

Re: POLL: Ivory Shirt or White Shirt? (Girls with Ivory Gowns, or Girls with White Gowns and an Opinion)

Definitely ivory. My gown is silk and even I need the boys in ivory shirts or else I'll look dirty

You definitely need to match your dress with the grooms shirt. He needs to wear ivory. Since the girls have ivory on their dresses also I would definitely go with ivory on the groomsmen...

Re: POLL: Ivory Shirt or White Shirt? (Girls with Ivory Gowns, or Girls with White Gowns and an Opinion)

I have the same issue. I'm leaning toward ivory, but he's got a tux already and I'm not sure where to buy ivory accessories. I've only seen white. If anyone knows, please share. I don't want to rent just a shirt.

Re: POLL: Ivory Shirt or White Shirt? (Girls with Ivory Gowns, or Girls with White Gowns and an Opinion)

Does anyone have pictures of an ivory shirt? I don't think I've ever seen one! My gut would say for the men to wear ivory, but again, I have no idea what it looks like....Good Luck!

i have an ivory dress too, i think we'll go with ivory shirts but i'm going to bring in a swatch of material from my dress to see how it looks with white.

Re: POLL: Ivory Shirt or White Shirt? (Girls with Ivory Gowns, or Girls with White Gowns and an Opinion)

Definitely go with ivory! I brought a swatch of my dress with me, and the ivory shirts matched perfectly. I have a pic. in my avatar where you can kind of see, but so glad we went with the ivory and not white.
