Bridesmaid shoes--same shoe, different height

lulurosso

I am a bridesmaid in a wedding where the bridesmaids range in height from 5'2" to 5'11". I am looking for shoes that are the same but available in different heel heights. 
Thank you!

Don't make your BMs wear the same shoes. No one is gong to notice what's on their feet anyway and they'll feel a lot more comfortable in something they picked out and have possibly worn before. If you really want to, set a color, but again, no one is going to notice.

I agree with Liz--I'd be incredibly uncomfortable in most bridal shoes, and no one will notice the difference.

Besides, I assume that you're trying to even out some of the height differences. Even if you put a four-inch heel on that poor 5'2" bridesmaid and flats on your tallest girl, there's still a five inch difference. It's not worth fiddling with. This is one of those little details you should just let go.

I feel your pain! I'm 5'11 and I was a bridesmaid in a wedding where the bride was 4'11 and the BM's varied from 5'1 - 5'11. She wanted us ALL to wear the same shoes. The girl next tallest was 5'7 so I just went to the bride and said there was no way. We were wearing long dresses and no one could tell I wasn't wearing the 3.5" heels everyone else was in. Just talk to her and show her the logistics of the situation. She might have no even realized the issue she's presenting.

There's more to fit than just the heel height, so even if they get to choose a height they're comfortable with, the shoes might still be painful.  Besides, the only shoes I know of where you can choose different heights for the same style are stupidly expensive.

Just give them some basic guidelines (silver strappy, black closed toe, etc.) and let them choose their own.  It's not remotely necessary for their shoes to match, no one is looking at their feet.

I'd talk to her.  I went to a wedding just this weekend with 7 BM's all wearing different heights of shoes and styles.  They all wore the same dress while one girl wore ballet flats, another cowboy boots, strappy sandals.  It was actually a great site that each girl had herself showing through.  Some of the pictures were great too, a great twist on all the girls wearing the same shoes but all different.  Hopefully your bride will realize that same shoes and different heights isn't  a good idea
