anybody wearing a Ivory dress?

Im wearing my mother's ivory dress/vintage looking. I went picked up my flowers and just realized my bouquet and the girls bouquet have white roses in them. Should I worry about this not matching? I didint think to ask for ivory flowers. If your wearing an Ivory dress what color are your flowers?

Re: anybody wearing a Ivory dress?

  • My dress is ivory but I did ask for all cream/ivory flowers. 

    Honestly, I don't think it will be a big deal, but if you're concerned about it then call your florist and see if she can get it changed.

  • Ditto Achiduck. I made sure the florist knew my dress was ivory and that flowers for my bouquet were cream/ ivory. I'm pretty sure that still have plenty of time to contact your florist to make that change if you really need it. The only problem I forsee would be if you have a ton of flowers ordered with white and you changed all of them over to ivory. Depending on the breed of flower, it may not be that easy. When in doubt, call and check. Good luck!

  • my dress is ivory and my florist told me to stay away from white roses so I have red. My other flowers are reds and purples.

  • I am! I love the color of my dress. Ivory flatters everyone, especially fair women of all ethnicities! :)
  • My dress is ivory, I don't know if I'll have any white flowers in my bouquet though. FI picked out the flowers for my bouquet, I told him I want it to be colorful but that's all I know. I never would have though of making sure the flowers match the dress. I would think you'd be fine with some white roses even though your dress is ivory.
  • My dress is somewhere between off white and ivory, but my flowers are quite colorful,pink/purple/yellow & green, so thankfully I don't have to worry about that matching.  Unfortunately my veil that I ordered that's off white, is still too white, but I figure it won't be that noticable.  Maybe add a pop of color in there might help?

  • Don't worry about it!  You have more than enough things to think about.

  • My dress is ivory, and my flowers are mostly shades of orange, but there are some that are ivory. My florist and I looked at using white, and really, I could barely tell the difference. If you're concerned give him/her a call and swap out the white for ivory.

  • I would call and see if they can change it, if they can't then don't worry about it, hopefully people will be looking at you and not the flowers!
