Planning to wear my Indochino Hedonist Navy to a wedding the end of this month, and I need some advice from the more well-informed about what tie, square and shirt to match with it. I have a decent array of options to choose from in all categories, but being new to the sartorial arts, don't really have a clue what goes with what (as well as being color-deficient)!

Help a guy out? Here's the suit page, and I can take pictures of my actual suit when I get home. Navy blue with very light blue pinstripes:

Classic white Ultimate Utility and the Spring Awakening shirts are two of my options coming in the mail as well:

For a wedding, do the white shirt and a white linen square. A patterned tie, perhaps with some red in it.

Thanks, I was leaning toward white/white because of the formality and near-limitless options.

Outside of a wedding, though, what would be some other nice pairings for a suit like this?
