I'm not a girly girl but I do have a very beautiful girly wedding dress. I live in Converse and was thinking about getting some wedding converse for the evening reception. Has anyone chose to wear them for the actual ceremony as well and do you have any photos please? Thanks in advance ?

I got married on Saturday, and initially bought converse to wear all day. I actually changed my mind and bought some sparkly trainers, with personalised ribbon for laces. I wore them for both the ceremony and reception. I was comfortable all day, and everyone loved them!!
I wore converse for the whole day
I'm actually considering this now! I've bought 2 pairs of shoes (so far) for our wedding (I'm not great in heels, get pain in my legs and sore feet within 5mins). I wear them around the house every few days trying to break them in lol
I'm scared about tripping over my dress tbh either that or not being able to walk in heels and the dress I'm pretty certain no one will see the shoes so I'm really thinking I'll get away with the converse now x
I had heels for during the day and these were my nighttime dancing shoes! Was so good to have comfy feet all night :)
I thought about this too! I'm definitely getting a pair for the evening but I know someone who did wear them all day. Check out custom wedding converse on FB.
I wore them for the entire day. Couldn't see them under my dress and were super comfy all day
My best friend had converse for her wedding day, I would but converse just don't agree with my feet at all, they'd hurt more than heels!
I got shoes off ebay & personalised with ribbons & love heart crystal. Mine where white & girls with the pink! Best idea coz it was so comfy we wore them all day & actually couldnt see them anyway but saved sore feet in heels. xx
I never wear heels so thought why make myself uncomfortable on our wedding day. I wore my converse for the whole day including ceremony x opted for blue 1s for my something blue And turned it into a theme for the bridal party so we all had them
I want to wear converse for the whole day, as I want to be comfortable and I know I will be in them, lots of sites do really glam ones now with crystals etc, I haven't got mine yet so I can't help you with that unfortunately x
My fiances sister and her whole wedding party wore converse - looked really pretty!
My husband and I had matching converse, we had 'Mrs Cook' and 'Mr Cook' on the back of them
My bridesmaids were in converse for my wedding which we got blinged up with diamantes and satin laces! Couldn't see them under the dress but they were comfortable and that's all that mattered to me
I wore converse all day with a beautiful lace traditional wedding dress.
My friend had white leather converse that she had someone jazz up with jewels and replace the laces with white satin ribbon all her bridesmaids had black converse to go with their dresses too. All the dresses were floor length x
I wore converse for the entire day. Unless i lifted my dress up you couldn't tell I had them on!

I'll be wearing my converse all day xx
Hi if that's what your comfortable with then wear them :)
Wouldn't have known without lifting up my dress.
I'm wearing converse all day. I'm going to be on my feet all day I need to be comfy! You can't see them under my dress anyway xx
I was 7.5 months pregnant when I got married, so flats were a must! I bought some very bridal looking ones for the ceremony but they weren't massively comfortable, so I bought trainers from primark and replaced the laces with our ribbons in our colour theme. It was the best thing I did!! So comfortable and you couldn't see them under my dress. I had my dress altered to the length of me wearing flats which helped Go for it!! X
I wore mines all day .... you didn't notice until I pulled my dress up. I got blue sparkly Kate Spade ones .... they were my something blue :), I'd suggest wear whatever you feel comfortable in it's your day :)
I bought the trainers from Primark and added the rest myself. Wore them for the evening, I got a cheap pair of flats and added pearls for the day x
I am thinking the same way, you can always change the laces for sime ribbon or lace to dress them up a bit
I'd love to wear converse on my big day but I'm 5ft1 and my other half is about 6ft2 so I'm wearing heels in the day then will probs get some converse for the night x
I had them for my wedding day!! So comfortable
I'm wearing ballet converse and putting ribbon that matches the bridesmaid dresses for the laces x

I wore blue converse (my something blue) and frilly ankle socks
This is my question - thanks so much for all the feedback and advice. I never wear heels and live in converse and flats. I've got some shoes for the wedding but still considering converse for all day. Its muxh more me than bling heels ❤
I'm wearing converse for mine getting married at Disney world and then going round magic kingdom c
Here are my converse I wore
I did x
These were mine.. They looked ace with my dress! (although I'm biased.. lol) Got them direct from Converse, they do personalised ones :) waited for their sale, and got them for like a third of the price xx
Im wearing my DC trainers for the whole day ive never been good with heels and am far from girlie. My dress hides my feet anyway xx
I'm wearing heels until after the 1st dance and then I have Skechers for the evening xxx
I wore heels for the service at church then as soon as we were back at the venue I changed into my converse :) love it!
I'm a wedding photographer, and have photographed lots of wedding where the bride wears converse! Super fashionable now, go for it!

Not converse but I got docs and my husband personalised them!
I changed into mine after the first dance x
My self and my bridesmaids all wore converse and I got them custom made from the converse website. Even some of my guest wore them. I live in my converse and wanted to be comfortable all day. Even my wee girl was in them.
My cousins wife got married in wedges that were also trainers ... to be honest if you have a long dress no one is going to see your shoes so I would just ware whatever your comfortable in haha x
I got married in some kitten heel shoes as I can't do big heels etc and then changed into converse for the evening. Me and my flower girl both had matching and my husband put my name on mine as a surprise x
Best decision ever. So comfy

I've got personalised converse for my day. They look fab and eill be super comfy
I'd always said I wanted to wear trainers, my mum was horrified when I first mentioned it but I was adamant. I tried to get some sparkly slip on 'vans' style trainers from Office but found them too narrow. In the end I went with proper converse in one of my colours and got white ribbon laces from amazon & some Mickey Mouse lace charms to personalise them. My dress was also very girly/princessy but you could only see them when I lifted my dress!
Got personalised once direct off converse. Bargain and still love them x
I wore black sequin converse for my wedding :-) so comfy! I know loads of other brides who have worn them and been thoroughly relieved at how little their feet hurt hehe!
I wore Nike trainers all day at my wedding in March. I was so comfortable and able to stay on my feet till after 3am dancing and speaking to all my guests. Can't recommend wearing trainers enough! Why bother wearing high heels which you will need to change out of and then wear flats which won't be tailored to your dress? It's the best day ever, why be in pain and uncomfortable?! And because I'm a PE teacher, I can wear my trainers to work so they work out very cost effective too! Wear what you want, it's your day and you should be true to your style and personality. xx
I'm wearing these for the full day under my dress , who says you have to wear heels and be in agony xz
