I'm part of another site and there is a HUGE debate over how many brides and grooms wear tennis shoes, like Converse on their wedding day these days. So ladies I thought i would ask the same question on here and get the uk's brides opinion on the subject....
Converse shoes on your wedding day..... Yea or nay? and why?

im not having them no but my kids live in hope they can wear them lol (which is a no ) but they never have them off their feet so i guess if you like them ware them xxx
CommentAuthorHoxxyhula
I like the idea - a bit 'David Tenant' for the groom with a suit and you can't see the bride's feet anyway :)
CommentAuthorNerdette
I'm sorely tempted to get a pair, simply because, while I'll be wearing gorgeous shoes throughout the ceremony and the first dance, my tolerance for heels is extremely limited and I'll need a second pair of shoes to spend the evening in. Might as well get a nice white pair!
Nay for me, even though I have to wear flats I think there are much prettier options but it is horses for courses!

Personally Im not but I do think its a cool idea for a casual wedding and ive seen some fab pics with the girls in cream ones and the men in black :-) or similar colours.
Im not a huge fan of stilleto (sp?) heels myself as i cant walk in them lol I have got a pair of little heels that im going to dye red but because im always in trainers or boots i am on the look out for a pair of low heel boots that i will dye red or blue?, as i think that would be more ME!

I would say wear what you want but personally would not wear converse to my wedding, both I and h2b live in pumps and so I feel we should make some effort for the big day! But I agree with Hails in that I have also seen some great wedding photos where the bride and groom have been wearing them, makes for very quirky photos!

I'm thinking of getting some for the evening. I've seen some really nice white ones with diamontes all over them. xx
CommentAuthorjoey86
I would love to wear converse to my wedding!! I'm planning on having a knee-length dress, so would be able to show them off. Actually it would be quite fitting - when me and h2b met, it was because I was wearing converse and him and his mate took pics of them (long story...) lol x
