So, I love the shoes I got for the wedding, but my FI said they are weird. I generally like funky shoes, and I usually pay more attention to what shoes I'm wearing than the clothes I'm wearing. FI's mom was shocked to find out I wasn't wearing white shoes to the wedding....
So I'm just curious, are my shoes ugly? Because I really thought they were cute.

Sorry about my foot being on the counter, the kitchen has the best lighting.
And I'm curious how many people wear colored wedding shoes as opposed to white/ivory shoes, since his family looks at me like I'm from another planet when they find out my shoes aren't white.
Re: Colored or White wedding shoes
I wore black, but no one on his side even knew what shoes I was wearing until they were on my feet, so if they had an opinion I didn't hear it. I wouldn't worry about what anyone else thinks about your shoes. If you love them, wear them!
Here's my honest take on the colored shoes thing (and this is coming from someone who wore orange shoes).
It's a trend and it "dates" our wedding. Personally I don't care. It's hard to not wear anything that dates your wedding, and I think colored shoes are cool.
People who aren't on TK or other wedding forums think it's weird. And as a fellow NCer, you know trends are like, 5 years late getting to our state, so it's not surprising when everyone gives you a raised eyebrow for something cool or different you're doing at your wedding. People were all stink eye when they heard I was wearing orange shoes, then I got a bajillion compliments on them at the wedding and afterwards.

Your shoes are NMS, but if you love shoes, and you love those, then I say go for it!
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?

I've got purple heels to wear down the aisle, and then for the reception I will be wearing purple Chuck Taylor's. Anyone I have mentioned this to thinks that it is a great idea and ends up wanting to do the same thing (I work in a wedding gown shop)

I'm wearing silver shoes!!!!!!! ALL FOR IT!
Golden, I love your shoes!
Sarah, I looked at some similar shoes but they were the wrong color pink and waay out of my price range. I was lucky and found those for $40.
Pale gold were the closest we could find to coordinate.
Do not mess in the affairs of dinosaurs because you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
I love you Missy. Even though you are not smart enough to take online quizzes to find out really important information. ~cew
Most of the "bridal" shoes I've found look pretty matronly to me.

As seen in this picture, my shoes were purple. And they didn't last long, but while they did I loved them and so did everyone else. I find it strange when people "haven't" heard of this trend. If you need more evidence visit 'The Brides Cafe" they have plenty of pictures there.
ETA: Love your shoes BTW.
I'm probably going to wear colored shoes. With my miserable feet, I'll be lucky if I can find ANY pair of shoes, and I'll just buy whatever I can get them into!
RAWR!
