Please do not put him in ivory-it looks dingy and 80's. chelseamorning on "What does the groom wear if I wear ivory?" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/what-does-the-groom-wear-if-i-wear-ivory#post-89900 Fri, 10 Oct 2008 15:12:23 +0000 chelseamorning 89900@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ ErinMarieMack, you and I have similar taste in wedding attire!

You won't see james bond in ivory. You pretty much find ivory tux shirts at rent-a-tux stores and the semi-trained sales guys are the ones pushing that "dirty dress" myth.  I don't think ivory shirts look particularly bad when they are with an ivory vest, but if the vest isn't ivory I can't think of a good reason to not wear a white shirt.  Maude on "What does the groom wear if I wear ivory?" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/what-does-the-groom-wear-if-i-wear-ivory#post-89869 Fri, 10 Oct 2008 12:09:25 +0000 Maude 89869@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ I wore ivory and so did my groom.  He wore both an ivory vest and shirt.  We didn't try to match exactly, but i think we looked good:  <a href="http://flickr.com/photos/44501474@N00/2652658481/in/set-72157606069698718/">http://flickr.com/photos/44501474@N00/2652658481/in/set-72157606069698718/</a>  Soon2BeMrsC on "What does the groom wear if I wear ivory?" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/what-does-the-groom-wear-if-i-wear-ivory#post-89866 Fri, 10 Oct 2008 11:33:54 +0000 Soon2BeMrsC 89866@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ Thanks for all the help ladies!

Not so much the classic ivory I was thinking about. I had 3 ivory gowns, each a different "ivory" shade. We were caught up for a while trying to decide what looked best, but in the end we arranged to have DH in a white shirt and have an ivory vest. It looked great in pictures and in person. No regrets there! His jacket and pants were black.    In your case, I think a white shirt and a burgundy vest and tie are perfectly fine. No one will notice the difference at all.   loveatfirstsightlover on "What does the groom wear if I wear ivory?" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/what-does-the-groom-wear-if-i-wear-ivory#post-89689 Thu, 09 Oct 2008 09:54:07 +0000 loveatfirstsightlover 89689@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ My wedding colors are actually green and white because I like the clean, simple look to it. The girls have green dresses with white trim and the guys are wearing white shirts w/ green ties w/ their tan suits (the green is a yellow-green, so we thought the warmth of the color would look better with a tan suit). My ivory dress is nowhere near white, but the colors all seem to work together very well.

I took a picture with a manequin with a white shirt to make sure it didn't clash... I don't think it did... heres the link ot my wedding planning site, the pic is on there so you can judge for yourself. <a href="http://adaashley.googlepages.com/home">http://adaashley.googlepages.com/home</a> DrB on "What does the groom wear if I wear ivory?" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/what-does-the-groom-wear-if-i-wear-ivory#post-89674 Thu, 09 Oct 2008 08:58:11 +0000 DrB 89674@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ I am wearing ivory, and the groom is wearing a white shirt.  All our table linnens are white too, but I am not concerned.  Ivory does not look dirty just because it is not white, so you will be fine either way.
