BM dress...vent and advice needed!

So, my BM dresses came in and I am super excited. Howver, i showed them to a few of my friends not in the bridal party and they were making fun of them and joking around how it looked almost like an 80's prom dress and is borderline tacky if I do not get the right shoes for it. I was pissed but woke up this morning and began questioning my decsion.

So, my question is what do you think (honestly) and what color shoes? My bms said silver but my other 'friends' said dyeable pink. I need help! Here is the link. http://www.alfredangeloca.com/Collections/DisplaySeparates.aspx?categoryId=AC3489C0-7593-4015-B294-D62DB7E1EA00#

The colors are pistachio and tea rose for the midde. Moh will have an ivory middle. The skirt is MSKT-K and top is style number 6489. TIA girls!

Thanks. The top and skirt are pistachio but the middle part of the top (tht looks alittle like a sash thing) is tea rose with a silver broach on the side.

Ita or do a fun silver shoe, I think with the dyeable pink shoe it could be to matchy, matchy!! If you girls had some nice chanderlier earrings it come together very nicely

Who gives a $hit what anyone else thinks? If you like them then you should use them! Personally, I don't think they are tacky or '80s prom-like in the LEAST! I think they are very simple and elegant. And I think silver shoes would look very nice with a pistachio color. Maybe even gold.

Good luck!

Thank you guys so much! Feel free to send me pics of shoes you think will look nice! :)

I dont really care what everyone is saying, but it gets to me when EVERYONE has an opinion. If i dont ask for it, I dont want it!

Crashing!

I agree. Either the nude/camel color or a silver shoe. I think a strappy sandal would look adorable!

Seriously, I want to scream at everyone.. but im trying not to be bridezillaish. But for real, you see people's true colors when planning a wedding.

I love the shoes you guys are sending me...

ITA! You can do a silver or nude shoe with pistachio.

Ignore your 'friends.' I think it's rude, no matter what, for them to say those comments to you. Non-brides have no idea how much brides stress about every little detail.They probably just thought they were being funny…even though they obviously are not.

I think the dresses will look pretty – very summery. I’d pair the dress with silver shoes.
