Is this going to look stupid?

I have four BMs. 2 have pink dresses and 2 have yellow dresses. Is it going to look stupid if they all wear pink shoes? I wanted to get them nude shoes, but then some of them don't like the shoes I picked out and blah blah blah...

Re: Is this going to look stupid?

  • Nobody will notice what color shoes they wear.   Except I think nude shoes pretty much always look weird.

    <div>Whaaaat, why?? I LOVE nude shoes! I think they're so classy!</div>
  • I think nude shoes always look good with a dress.  I have at least four pairs in differing levels of dressy-ness and heel height.  I'd tell the BM's to wear whatever nude shoes they like- especially since different skin tones need different shades of nude shoes.
  • I would just pick a colour and have them choose their own shoes, tbh. They can wear a pair they already own or buy some - their choice  -and much less stress for you.
  • i have noticed that
  • I guess when I think of nude-colored shoes, I think of these weird orthopedic pumps my old-lady violin teacher used to wear.

  • I don't think it would look bad, but in the end it's your wedding. So if you want them to wear nude shoes, then they just have to deal with it! Wink

  • I think silver would be pretty. But, I'm sure no one will notice so pink will be just fine.

  • I don't know pink shoes + pink dress = too much pink for my liking.  Pink shoes + yellow dress = may be too much color depending on how vibrant the colors are.

    I agree, I LOVE nude heels and think they look so classy.  If they don't like nude, what about giving them another option (like silver?) and then letting them each pick our their own shoes in the same color family.

  • Nude, black or silver.  Typically any woman has atleast one pair of dressy heels in one of these colors.  Honestly I hate when the shoe color matches the dress color...it is too matchy matchy.

  • I love nude! maybe if you tell them the color but the specific shoe they will be more open to the idea?

    And I agree with PP that pink and pink may be to much pink! That is just my opinion though, maybe if nude is not an option you can choose a different color that is not the same as either dress but matches both?
    I've loved you since I was 8 years old...

  • I love nude heels as well & like the idea of letting them all pick out their own nude heels! But, if you do decide to go with the pink, I think it will look fine & no one will notice (just like PPs said).

  • Another vote for nude here.

    I wouldn't specify heels though - many people won't be comfortable in heels for the duration of a wedding.
  • I love nude heels!  I have short little midget legs and a long waist, and they make me look more proportionate.  I also would encourage you to specify nude shoes of their choice.

    And Duds those shoes are such classics!
  • It's their money you're asking them to spend. At least let them get what they want (to a point).

    This. I also am not a fan of nude shoes. My BMs are getting white or silver shoes. They get to pick. Maybe just let them find their own and everyone will get what they want and you don't have to stress about finding shoes that all of them like?
