Day of shoes?
Ok so I love the look of different color shoes for the day of and since my girls dresses are Navy blue I thought it would be a great Idea to wear Navy blue shoes since it would match the colors of the wedding and also it can be y something blue ... however some of the people I am telling this too are saying 'well if you want to go against tradition, then go ahead' .. or 'What?? blue shoes??? for our wedding day???' ... obviously they have never seen how cool it looks! so now I am torn because I have White shoes already but i really want the blue!! what should I do ..

Re: Day of shoes?
i originally wanted a different colored shoe also... but with my color dress, i felt that nothing would have looked very good with it.... so i stuck with the ivory shoesalso, yeah we think the colored shoes look awesome now but what about in 20 yrs?

Re: Day of shoes?
Here is a suggestion I am doing this too . I am wearing silver shoes for the ceremony and most of the reception. I am going to change into teal blue shoes when we do the garter toss because by then it's already the end of the night who cares.

I say do what you want and don't care what others think. I totally wanted to do silver shoes but I found a pair of ivory that I liked so that's what I went with. It's your wedding and you have to be the one that is happy so don't let what others say stop or influence you

Re: Day of shoes?
i like the idea of colored shoes, mine are hot pink, i think its just my personality, and IM the one thats wearing them... plus the shoes are really only for the pictures, no ones really going to them anyway... i wouldnt let others sway your decision cuz you might end up wishing you wore colored ones....

ITA....do what makes you happy...people get crazy about tradition and cannot imagine doing anything else...
I have electric blue shoes and they are totally my personality...and in 20 years I am sure we are all gonna look back at what everyone wore during this point in time and be like what were we thinking!!!! So do as many things as you like to personalize!!!

Details are where its at girls!! You want the crazy colored shoe... as long as it fits your personlaity then do it! I think that if you are a teal shoe now and are tru to yourself.. then it will still be in your personality years down the line!I wanted the blue shoe, but mom vitoed it... so I compromised when I found the same fab shoe in silver... and shhhhh dont tell mom but I like the silver version more in the end hehehe

Re: Day of shoes?
I just like the traditional look better, so I voted for the white option. I'd rather save the fun shoes for a fun night out...in a short dress so people can actually appreciate the shoes.

Re: Day of shoes?
i voted for navy. i wanted to wear a blue shoe myself but my mom almost fell on the floor when i mentioned it. so just not to cause too much of an argument i will give in & waste money on a pair of white shoes i will never wear again.sorry theres a little vent in there. lol.

Re: Day of shoes?
I am doing different color shoes and I got ALOT of feedback when I texted my bridal party and my mom a pick of my purple shoes. Only one BM liked them lol. Oh the things they said lol. I dont even care because for the first time I am doing what I want for the wedding and blocking out everyone's opinions because they are driving me crazy.Do what you want and what makes you happy and block everyone else out! Did you find navy shoes or are you dying shoes to match the same color navy as your BM?
