Bridesmaid/Flower Girl shoe?s

Okay, a few random questions--sorry for my sudden post vomit. I know these are petty questions and I'm starting to sound like a spineless bridezilla who cannot make her own decisions, but I really do appreciate the input

--I have bridesmaids wearing all sorts of different style dresses in the same color. I was just going to tell them to wear what they want in white or silver (color is pale yellow)--do you think this would look alright, or should I tell them all to get a specific (cheap) pair or ask them if they want dyeables (ugh...so expensive for such an ugly shoe)

--For a June wedding would you have flower girls wear tights or socks? Same shoes, or let them pick? Ivory or white--will it really make a difference?

I have three of them, and here is the dress (it's going to be in ivory)

    For the bridesmaids, I did the same thing you did. I told them to get a white sandal, whatever kind they wanted. I just asked that it be open toe and look "summery." Most of their shoes looked almost identical. 

    Tights would look cute with the flowergirl dresses, but it is going to be PAINFULLY hot in June. Trust me, I did it last year. Have them wear socks with their dress shoes and bring sandals for the reception.  Unless of course you can find cute little girl sandals that work with the dress. Then do that and don't worry about the socks or tights.

    Also breathe. This is the point where I started freaking out a year ago :)

    I would have the FG wear tights, at least for the ceremony. You're having a formal mass, therefore I feel that it would be appropriate for the girls to match. They can change later. Just my opinion.

    And for the girst, I'd have them wear some cute peep toes. And I would find a pair I liked and have them pick them out. I"m picky about shoes, especially if they can be seen, so I would want to pick them. Again, you're having a formal wedding and reception; you want them to look put together. And white could be tricky; there are so many different shades; I would get the same kind and maybe not white. Tan would be cute and make their legs look like they go on forever.

    I had my girls all do the same color shoes and I sent them some samples via email of styles I liked- mostly peep toe- some had the same and most had similar and it looked good. My flower girl did socks with little lace around them and her own little white shoes. I think that would be good since it will be warm. You want her to be comfortable so she isn't too fidgety and fussy.
