What color shoes??

Andama08

My wedding colors are midnight blue, grey, and yellow. I can't decide on what color heels to have my bridesmaids wear or shoes for my fiance's groomsman. Midnight blue dresses, grey suits, and yellow flowers.

Generally guys will always wear black shoes for a wedding regardless of the tux color (unless its a tan or white suite of course, then there are coordinating shoes for those colors). As for the girls, I would have them find some light silver heels like these:http://www.6pm.com/rsvp-sheryl-silver?zfcTest=mat%3A1

Are you paying for the shoes?

i'm a non matching type of person...so it it were me I'd pick yellow

but I think nude colored shoes would look amazing too,.

Those are actually pretty perfect. I'd never even thought about silver but its definitely in the same color family as that grey tux, and those shoes are exaclty in the price range. Thanks!

I definitely thought about yellow but it's doesn't match a wide variety of skin tones and can sometimes look cheap and tacky. One of my bridesmaids aked me about nude but I was trying my hardest not to add in any other colors besides the 3 but if I'm having too much trouble I might just have too. Thanks for the ideas though!

silver-- everyone can use silver heels again and most girls probably have some already; and guys can wer black with the grey suits; it will look fine.  And even if you went with nude (little too casual in my opinion) but anyway, a nude shoe wouldn't add to your color scheme.  No one is looking at their shoes I promise.

Another vote for silver. I wouldn't focus too much on the styles; just give them the color and let them wear whatever they have.

I bought these shoes and they're soo comfortable.

You can't require exact shoes unless you're paying for them, and even then it's not a good idea.  Just give them a color (e.g. silver) and maybe a general style (sandals v. pumps) and let them pick something that they find comfortable, attractive, and affordable.

I appreciate the posts about who is paying for what but my bridesmaids and I have already discussed and set a budget. No worries, just asking about shoe color. Thanks

I like the idea of nude shoes.  And it really wouldn't be adding another color since a nude pump/heel is a neutral color, just like the black shoes the guys will most likely wear.

Another vote for silver, for same reason, a color a women is more likely to be able to wear again in the future.

Thanks everyone! I decided to go with silver. I let my girls choose the style they wanted as long as fabric/color matched
