Shoes matching my bridesmaid?

I'm getting married outisde so I've been looking for some cute wedges that I can die aqua (wedding color).  While shopping for Bride's Maid dressing at Davids, one of my bride's maid found some really cute wedges there that can be died as well. 

So do you think it would be ok if I wore the same shoes (same color) as my bride's Maid.  I could always bling up the wedge of the heel.

What are you opinions?

  • Wear whatever you are comfortable in, it doesn't matter if you match your BM's. I think the "bling" idea sounds really cute.
  • Yes!  I think it would be cute!  I'll likely be doing that too since I bought purple heels.

  • Personally I think it's ok.  That is if you were matching all of the BM's.  If you were matching just one, I would probably ask her to pick a different pair.  (But that's me being a selfish bride.)

    The bling sounds like a good idea to set your shoes apart from theirs too.

  • oh, totally misread the question.  Matching shoes all around.  I think it would be okay.  Bling it up to make yours special.

  • i agree with the bling idea, maybe make them blue? :) if you need something blue and if the shoe color would look ok with it
  • It's bridesmaids not Bride's Maid.  

    Sure, wearing all the same shoes is fine as long as your bridesmaids are comfortable in the same shoe.  A lot of people are uncomfortable in heels, including wedges.

  • I think it's fine for you to wear the same color shoes that your bridesmaids are, but I would really caution against trying to force them all into the same shoe.  It's a minor visual detail that is probably the single most important contributing factor to the person's comfort, so you're looking at potentially a whole lot of trouble and pain for very little benefit.  If they're all okay with buying new shoes, you could tell them to get something aqua, but just say no to the same style.

    All of the girls in my sister's wedding, including my sister, wore pink shoes in different styles, and it looked fine.

    Sometimes I feel like people think that brides are delicate little flower princesses who get all dressed up and pretty for one special moment of their dreams, when really they're just normal people who just happen to be getting married. Things shouldn't have to be sugar-coated for grown-ass women. -mstar284
  • To put in my 2 cents, I wouldn't be comfortable wearing dyed shoes outdoors. If they get wet, the color could bleed.

  • I think the same color shoe is fine if that's what everyone wants.  Like PP said, I wouldn't force it on them.  My ladies are allowed to wear whatever shoe makes them comfortable as long as they are all the same color.  (I say I'm trying to accomodate them, which is true, but it also makes it easier on me)
