If the brides dress is white, can the groom wear ivory bow tie?

My bridal dress is white (not ivory) and i’m considering whether the groom should be wearing white or ivory bow tie. I’m afraid he would look washed out wearing white bow tie on top of white shirt or it would blend in too much.

What colour suits for the boys in the bridal party?

We have 2 bridesmaids wearing pale ‘cornflower’ blue for a modern boho beach wedding, we have 4 groomsmen and the groom wants a blue suit but I don’t know what kind of blue, and if it will clash with the girls dressed.. I think a clean white shirt would be best, but don’t know what colour ties. The flowers r natives pinks grey and green.
