If I am wearing Champagne, what color should the groom wear? The guys are not wearing jackets, so the color is more important since there is nothing covering it up. I have searched high and low for an answer online. Maybe ya'll can help me out...
- White
- Ecru
- Ivory
- Champagne
What do you think?

Actually, I *just* posted about this: http://practicallymarried.wordpress.com/2009/05/09/white-vs-ivory/
Here's what I think it comes down to. It's like shades of brown: if you try to match two shades of brown, they almost never match. However, if you wear brown and beige, no problem. Go with the white shirts -- they're much easier to find, and they'll be different enough from your dress that they won't compete.
I vote for Ivory.
What about black, with a tie that compliments your dress instead? ;) Black on black on black...
Otherwise, can I ask where you got your dress from? I'm sorry, I forget my dear! If it's from a place like David's Bridal, then Men's Warehouse has the same colors they do - to perfectly match.
One thing to be careful of - my sister (last weekend!) wore an ivory gown, her husband wore an ivory shirt. The ivory shirt ended up looking yellow. So if you're going to pick one, I'd say black or white - keep it safe. ;)
Best of luck, hope I didn't confuse you more! lol I'm excited for you, dear!!!

P.S. For some reason - I can read your feed blog post (most recent), however your most recent post from the feed isn't showing on your blog? Wasn't sure if you knew or not...have a lovely day! ;)

I'll be in ivory and my finace will use an ivory shirt and tie. The rest will be in chocolate...
my blog is all about wedding color! Come stop by sometime!
I like that you're wearing Champagne. I think a nice shade of ecru would compliment the champagne nicely. A nice matte version of your shimmery dress.
Hey Jaime!
I had to temp. delete the post due to snooping family members. I got scared! I will repost after the wedding is over in 28 days!!!
