Bridesmaids shoes?

kal0824

My bridesmaids are wearing a dress from Davids Bridal in the color watermelon. I tried to post a link in here like 6 times but it wont work for some reason. It is a short strapless dress. I thought maybe watermelon dyeable shoes to match the dress color but they probably wont ever wear those again. I thought about silver but they are wearing pearl necklaces/earrings. Would that go? What are yalls opinions?

I vote gold strappy sandals.  I wouldn't do the dyeables.  I would wear gold sandals again.  Not watermelon (although I have a pair of pink/green plaid platforms that I wear, but that's just me ).Carrie

Pearl and silver I think are fine.  Silver is a neutral and it's not like their feet will be near their faces....at least not at your reception!!Chocolate brown could also be a great color.

Silver shoes will be great with the dresses.  Everything goes with pearls because they're classic.  People wear them with everything from jeans to gowns.

Silver will match because it's a neutral. You don't need to match every little thing. Pearl jewelry coordinates with silver shoes. Gold would work as well. Pick a color and then let them find their own shoes. Watermelon shoes would just be wasteful and call a ton of negative attention to their feet. Blech.

No one, and I mean NO ONE, is going to compare their jewelry to their shoes.  NO ONE.Give them a neutral color and let them pick their own shoes.

Gold shoes would be pretty too. And they won't clash with pearls. (I don't think anyone would notice anyway though)

Champagne shoes would go well. Or you could do dyeables and they can re-dye them black after the wedding. I've got two pairs like that, and I use them ALL. THE. TIME. In fact, one pair just died recently, and I'm planning to replace it with another pair of black satin shoes.

Silver shoes (although gold would work too). Some of them may even already own silver ones. On behalf of your BMs, please don't go with the watermelon dyeables.

I agree, gold and silver would be fine but ABSOLUTELY no dyeables. I didn't know those still existed.

Dyeable shoe = giant waste of money.  And speaking from very recent experience, David's doesn't always do it well.  Anything neutral will go... depending on if you have another color in the wedding, I think navy would also look great with watermelon and the pearls.

Dyeable shoe = staple in my closet. Gold or silver = doesn't exist in my closet and never will. Ask your bridesmaids what they'd prefer. If it was me, I'd go with the dyeables. I hate gold or silver sandals. HATE.

I would do Silver, but I would buy them or make all your b.m.'s wear the same style.  I saw wedding photos once and some of the girls were wearing closed toe granny shoes and some of them were wearing nice open toe and they just didn't go together.  I am buying my b.m.'s shoes and jewelry for gifts.
