I'm having shoe issues. I can't seem to find shoes that go nicely with my dress. My colors are bright blue and light pink with hot pink accents. H will be wearing a bright blue tie with his suit and my boys will have matching ties. I bought these blue shoes to try to match the guys but I'm not sure they really go with my dress.

They are a little lighter and less aqua than they look in the picture.

Here they are with my dress:

Then I tried on these black shoes...

I sorta like them but my mom thinks I'm nuts to wear black shoes with my dress. But she also thinks hot pink is a good idea so go figure!

My other options are:

Here is a better shot of my dress and flowers to get an idea

Help fellow Disbrides! I'm shoe challenged, find me my shoes!
 
firstly, i LOVE that you have all these different pics around your home in your dress - at the foyer! in a room! otherside of the foyer! the world is your runway!!

i'm a fan of colored shoes myself. they all look fine - i would like the blue ones over the black ones, but nothing wrong with a black heel if you like it! the middle mule you have with the kitten heel and flowers is so affordable and does go well, i wouldn't be able to talk myself out of it! i would just make sure your heel heights are all the same - so you could change your shoes last minute and the dress would be fine. i wore one pair on the wedding day and had a second pair for our MK portraits the next day. but, it rained that night and was still sprinkling that morning AND there was a minor sore foot/teensy victoria & albert wine pairing head ache that convinced me to wear flip flops to the session. which thank you jesus they were sort of "nice" flip flops because, although i requested my feet not be hanging out in pics, they are front and center in many. :(

but at some point, you kind of have to start looking....... i'm STILL enjoying shoe shopping for my wedding. last january. :rotfl:
 
Just love the red pump. Think it would be very dramatic, more so then the black.
 

Im going to vote for the middle shoe that matches your flowers. But you should decide for yourself, if you want your shoes to match you or if youd prefer a flash of color at the base of your dress (If the shoes are shown in any picture) Im not brave enough to go with color, but maybe you are!
 
Thanks for the input! I'm so indecisive. I love people who do a bright shoe for a pop of color but I'm not sure my dress is the type that would look good with a bright shoe. I'm used to being a plane Jane so maybe a pop of color would be good for me.

Samby, I have my H to thank for the photo shoot. He had me all over the place because he kept saying the lighting is off.
 
I am a big shoe person too! I actually have the Katie+Kelly Dahlia shoes- wore them in a wedding I was just in last June- we had them in champagne. They looked super cute. I vote for them in a light pink to match your flowers, they aren't a bright-bright pop of color but just enough to be a little different. I think they will also play off the color of your dress very well! :goodvibes
 
You could also design your own shoes and colors with Nina shoes online, but they are more around $100 or so. Just a thought! ;)
