Re: What color should I dye them?

  • I would be careful with dyed shoes like that.  The colors rub off pretty easily and I wouldn't take that chance with a white, or light, wedding gown.

  • If you're going to dye them, I would go with hot pink. I think that would be a fun burst of color.

  • Are you going to have pink accents anywhere else, like in flowers? If not, it may look like the color idea came from out of left field.  If you could incorporate pink into any other detail, then I would go for it! It would definitely be a nice pop of color and really, not many people are going to see the shoes much anyways.  Otherwise, a fun shade of green (you could go lime if you want bright).  I definitely wouldnt dye them blue to match the garter because no one will see the garter unless you do a garter toss - and guys don't make those connections!

    I didn't even think about the dye rubbing off. I'd probably get feedback from other women who have done it and see what their experiences have been.
  • Freaquently whoever you have dye them can put a sealant on so that the dye doesn't rub or run.
  • I voted for green, but I see the benefits to all three.  Don't worry about your shoes being the only pink in the wedding, my shoes were the only blue in the wedding, and they were only really visible during the garter toss.

    My dyed shoes didn't rub off on my dress at all, but if you're having an outdoor wedding you may need to be a bit more careful.
