Hi girlies, a bit of advice please. My dream wedding shoes are on sale (£45 and they were £185 which i could never have justified) and i really want to go and get them. I've already got my dress but its still being fitted so i don't have it to look at the colour. Does it really matter if the dress and the shoes don't match perfectly? My mum seems to think so! The dress is a pinky champagne colour and the shoes are more oystery. Any adivce would be great, thanks xx

No one really sees the shoes anyway. If you love the shoes- go for them! Mine are darker than my dress.

CommentAuthorginge23
I would go for them. You could see my shoes in some of the pice when Im sitting but no one would ever think ohhhh her shoes are not exactly same as dress. x
Go for it, my shoes do not match my dress and they are definetely not visable under my dress;o)xxx

i had pink shoes for the service then changed in to my black pumps lol
CommentAuthorDrunchPunk
It sounds to me like no-one will notice the difference. If your mum says it's ok, then it's ok :)
CommentAuthorEriksfjord
I would just go for the shoes you want. I tried my dress on with my shoes yesterday and my shoes are more creamy than my dress (both are ivory) but they don't show anyway! The only pictures I have seen of shoes are where they are taken seperately - when they won't be next to the dress anyway or when they are worn with a short dress - when they are not next to the dress anyway! They sound like the bargin of the century - you have to get them if they are what you want - they are shoes! (I love shoes!!!) xxx
CommentAuthorlala "mod" bunni
ohhh where are these fab shoes ...i want to see then , just so i can be jealous
it does not matter if you dont care but i would be worried about them clashing x x x
CommentAuthorHoxxyhula
No one will notice if they are not exact match - that would be very hard to find any way.
Pretty shoes = exciting!!
CommentAuthorJane
Go for it! I dont think it matters too much! They will be hidden most of the time anyway. I'm looking for a pair of knee high ivory boots to wear under my dress with heels, I'm more likely to wear them again then with a pair of jeans or something!
CommentAuthorJane
ps. not wellington boots... leather boots!

Calla there's some "wedge wellies" online ... oops misread that. But I'm sure you can find boots if you know where to look ;)
CommentAuthorMrs Hacker to-be!
If your dress is full length you're not really going to see them that much.....too good a bargain to say know to, i would have them by now. I work as manger for a shoe company and have some gorgeous shoes which are dressy but brighter colours and i've had brides match them to their colour scheme, ie red shoes to match red scheme. Works well! x x x

CommentAuthorMelly
My shoes dont match my dress at all. In fact i'm wearing bright pink wellies, with an ivory and burgandy dress. xx
CommentAuthorgemma19
Go for the shoes, thats a bargain! I doubt ppl will even look at your shoes so they are mainly for you! :-) xx
CommentAuthorJoolsy
Go for the shoes your never going to get an exact match unless you get them dyed!! My shoes are white and my dress is white and even then their is a bit of difference in them but my dress covers them so no one will even notice xx

i dont think its matters at all.. my sister had blue satin shoes (to match colour theme) and her dress was ivory... i have a white dress but got silver satin shoes as i could find anthing i liked in white.... think about it.... when are prople going to see your shoes.... when your passed out on the dance floor at the end of the night lol.. you will look stunning in your dress, the last thing people will notice is what colour your shoes are x x
CommentAuthorshellay
sounds like they would go perfectly with the dress, i dont think they have to match exactly, you wont get to see them much anyway :)x
I have know my soulmate for 27 years and on the 6th August
I married him and became Mrs Garnham.
It was most definitely the happiest day of my life.
I love married life !!!!
CommentAuthorKerrylou
If your dress is full length then no-one's going to see your shoes anyway. Spent literally weeks looking for shoes when my Aunty got married, matched the dress perfectly, but no-one saw them. Tried my dress on (while I could still fit in it) and no-one's going to see my shoes, seriously considering wearing a pair of glittery ruby red heels :) xxx
It's right what they say
"The course of true love never runs smoothly"
But if it had been easy then we wouldn't love each other as
much as we do right now - 1 week to go :D
