Bridesmaids shoes

adurant8

Ideally, I would like all my girls to wear the same shoes. Unfortunately, it's not in my budget to purchase the shoes for them. So now I'm thinking I'll just give them the general color I'd like and allow them to choose their own shoes. I guess I just need a little confirmation that mis-matched shoes will look fine! They all have matching dresses and I bought them matching jewelry to wear on the wedding day, so I don't think that slighty different shoes would be a huge deal.

Thanks for your help!

No one will even notice their shoes. You will be fine. The matchy matchy look isn't as 'in' anymore

Yeah I think requiring your brides to buy shoes on top of the dress would be a bit much. I don't think anyone will even bat an eye if they even notice at all. I also think you could get a fun picture with all the different types of shoes!

Letting them pick their own shoes is a necessity, IMO. Shoes and what is comfortable is so particular to each person, and there's not much worse than having your feet killing you all day long because the shoes are so uncomfortable. Nobody will notice the shoes. Truly. I think telling them a color or two and letting them go from there is fine.

No one will notice their shoes, seriously.  Heck, I don't even remember what shoes my BMs wore unless I go back and look at pictures...which BTW, I have exactly THREE pictures, out of over 1,000 that show their shoes (I only know that because I looked when trying to demonstrate this exact question to another poster).

Thank you ladies! I'm feeling much better about this now.

Much of them won't look the same - hair, face, coloring, etc.  No one will notice or care that the shoes are different
