Is there such a thing as an ivory, or cream lily?

I am in the midst of planning my wedding and trying to deside on flowers. I am planning from 2 hours away, and its hard to tell the colors of things on the internet.

My dress is ivory and I want to find a flower that won't make my dress look dingy in comparrison.

I like lilys, are there any varieties that are cream, or maybe just off-white? Also, what is the variety called that is white with the red tiger stripes?

i know exactly what you mean
contact your local florist,
and ask about the particular shade of Lilly you want

Or contact a Lilly specialist and ask for descriptions of the various named strains in your prefer ed color

Here are a couple of sites worth looking at

I am sure all will be splendid for your special day
good luck
