Hi ladies.... first time I've used this so it could be a bit ropey! I got engaged in September and the wedding is booked for June 2014 so i'm sorted for venue etc my main issue at this moment is finding my shoes! I am having a rainbow wedding and I really have no idea where I would find the same shoe in 5 different colours for myself and bridesmaids- does anyone have any idea where I should look?? I'm hopeless with google so some straightforward advice would be FANTASTIC! Please and thank-you! :)

You could get plain ones and then dye them different colours?
It depends what your price range it, style you want and actual colours. Something cheaper would be prim@rk - they have lots of the same styles in different colours - I'm afraid I cannot help with 'designer' shoes as I am a very tight bride!

if it was me i would use one of the bridal shoe sites that offer a dyeing services. That way i could pick the same shoe and have different colours they will either match them to your colour swatch or use one of there standard colours. you could even buy the shoes from the sales and they will still dye them for you. Do you have a style of shoe in mind i think i have just about serched all the shoe sites so i dont mind looking for a few pictures for you if you know what sort you want x

Oh i never thought of that! thanks, yeh i'm not interested in designer at all! i'd wear my converses if i was allowed! thank- you :)
i think i would like peep-toe with not a huge heel lol that's as far as i have got! by chance do you have know the site addresses that offer dyeing services?? i've never heard of this being such a non-girlie newbie!
CommentAuthorkrissy905
well why can't you? you could get a pair and bling them up if you have a long dress know one will see your shoes anyway x

I've put a link on your wall of colour block shoes that come with loads of different options, they are lovely x

Get plain ones and dye them yourself hun. x
CommentAuthorSianyCaitlin
I'm having the same trouble Rachael! We're having a mad hatter theme so everything is going to be bright colours & my BMs are going to have bright coloured flowers & their shoes will match, but I can't find one pair of shoes in lots of different bright colours! Never thought of dying them though, I wouldn't dare in case it went wrong! .. I would suggest Prim@rk too as I got some lovely, glittery shoes from there for £15!! xx

You could buy the same shoes and then stick gems on in different colours x x
CommentAuthorLlosa
hello, I saw shoes and just had to comment :D There is a sight that you can custom make your own shoes, I shall post a link on your wall when I get a chance. You can also get shoe clips so get a plain pair and jazz it up that way Or like everyone suggests dying your shoes, although this can be quite tricky so you may want to have a few practice runs first
CommentAuthorSianyCaitlin

CommentAuthorRachaelB61
However big it needs to be for 5 pairs of shoes...... within reason though, i havent really worked out a budget for anything! just taking things as they come too be honest!x
CommentAuthorLlosa
Siany I have posted on your wall, Rachael I'm afraid your page is restricted and I can't post, unless you unrestricted your page
CommentAuthorChanelP
I used to work in a wedding shop and know that the brand 'rainbow' will dye shoes to match swatches so if you have different coloured bridesmais dresses you can send off a swatch of each and get the shoes dyed the same colour. I hope that this helps :)

Etsy is great.... You can search for shoes, and choose your style heel height, appliqué detail and colour, and they dye them, they offer a service where they will send you an undyed pair to try you send them back and they dye them of you want. Parisxox is what to look for on etsy

you can always custom make a pair of converse, this is what i am doing i think (depends on the dress)
