{Wedding Shoes}

Alright girls, I am in need of your assistance. As I mentioned before, a very lovely friend of mine is getting married. There will be 6 bridesmaids in all, & she'd really like if we could all wear a different color pump. The dress color is still up in the air {either white or navy...more of that later} but accents will be fuchsia, lime green, & orange...your basic Springy, bright colors.

We decided we would do 2 girls in each color. 2 green, 2 pink, etc. Have any of you worn bright pumps for weddings or other parties? I'm having trouble finding choices. Especially G R E E N shoes. They seem to be nonexistent, & one bridesmaid is really jonesing for green.

These 2 are just an example of what we've liked so far. I think I may have to break the news to her that pink may be the only way to go. I love the red ones though {perhaps they will have to be a separate purchase?}

I also found these, which go perfectly with her idea of wanting navy shoes for herself...

So, what do you think?

love this idea - sounds like a pretty wedding!

Meghan sure has a lot of wedding ideas, and they all sound fun. As for the green shoe situation (this is totally going to make you freak) you could buy white shoes and have them dyed the shade of green to match the wedding. Its a thought. Those navy shoes are amazingly beautiful.

The pop of color is fabulous! My sister wore fuchsia shoes with her wedding dress that matched the ladies bridesmaids dresses.

Those shoes are all fabulous! The first pink ones are my favorite! Unfortunately, I haven't seen any green shoes this season - dying may be the only way to go.

I am so so so in love with that first pink pair. Are they Kate Spade?

Like the pink/navy pairs as well, but that heel scares me!

Love the colorful shoes idea! I adore the pink shoes and the red shoes. If you are having trouble finding exactly what you want you can always go with a dyeable shoe. They make pretty cute dyeable shoes now.

Sadly, I haven't encountered a fun green shoe in a while. But I absolutely adore the pink and red shoes you found on Zappos...you should definitely get them both!

I was once in a wedding and we all wore a different colour and we all wore the same shoe dyed to match our dress colour.
I like all of those shoes... too hard to choose... I would wear them all... sorry... I guess I'm no help afterall... maybe I should've said nothing... hmmm
ENJOY your day!

I think that sounds awesome. I love non traditional. Check piperlime.com . . . they usually have some different shoes.

Lindsay said...

I love the first pink shoe. Love the two at the bottom but big stiletto heels scare me. But the style is very classy :)

J Crew has pretty shoes in a lot of colors, but they're pricey so it depends what the bridesmaids' budgets are.

One Bite At A Time said...

Buy a pair of white ones that you love and have them dyed! I always do that!

Posh Peach said...

I love the idea of colorful shoes! J. Crew probably has some that would work.

Wow, it is almost unbelievable we both did wedding shoe posts on the same day!

Our only input: we're guessing it will be darn near impossible to find orange shoes. (As it should be.) Pink on the other hand, offers lots of possibilities.

I wore fuscha pink shoes for a friends wedding and she had us wearing light butter yellow dresses. It was actually quite pretty.
go for the pink!

Courtney said...

Fun idea. Green shoes, eh?
I have seen some cute pairs made by Jessica Simpson, actually. [If you do an amazon search you'll prob. be able to find them]. Good luck!!

Ashley Brooke Designs said...

Oh I am so in lOVE with those fushia shoes!!!!!!

I'll keep my eyes open for green shoes!

Daisy, Just Daisy said...

Thanks for your help on *my* shoe dilemma (wedding related no less!)

JCrew often does a few pairs of green heels and with spring coming you might just find a pair. That said, I recently went to a wedding that did this with the bridesmaids shoes and it was just way too adorable.

I really like that idea :) It sounds like a lovely wedding. I honestly prefer the navy pump, but both are great for her and out of the red and pink, both are so cute too! The pink seem more suited for a wedding though.

I am so in love with the first pink pair that I went on Zappos to get them! they dont come in my size but i got a pair that is similar. i plan to wear them with my new black dress, so that I officially have a cocktail outfit that i dont have to think about. you are so inspirational! xo

I love those first pumps!

Christina said...

Cute idea! If you need more options, try DSW, if you don't have a store near you, then try the website. I always find what I'm looking for there!

Actually, now that I think about it...I've been to the DSW in Omaha! It's in the same shopping center as Z. Gallerie and either Pier One or World Imports.

I hope you post the final choice & the dress!

I hope this doesn't get lost with all the shoe comments ;) I left you an award on my blog, I hope that you have a great day!

I love the pink Nina shoes! Think I may go for those for my wedding shoes since my girls are wearing that color! DSW is a great idea too! Will look there first!
