Bridemaids Shoes
I am having trouble finding shoes for my bridesmaids. We went to davids bridal today and they didnt have a good selection. I would like my girls shoes to match their dresses which is clover green, and have a little bit of a heal. The girls in my wedding don't wear heals so I need a shoe with a smaller heal. Does anyone know if I can get shoes dyed anywhere other than davids bridal that could match my girls dresses.
Re: Bridemaids Shoes
I know payless sells dye-able shoes. Other than that, ordering online may be your best bet. Or maybe try a gold or silver shoe?
ETA: http://www.unforgettablemoments.com has a ton of options and one of their colors is "clover". They have 64 dye colours, and reasonable prices IMO. Hope this helps!
How firm are you on that matching clover green shoe? I'd do a metallic over a matching shoe any day. The selection is better, they'd be way more likely to wear the shoe, and matching shoes are a really dated look, IMO.
It's "heel", unless you meant to make them "all better".
Most communitities have a shoe store that sells and dyes these sorts of shoes. But I agree, nothing says bridesmaid or old lady quite like a dyed-to-match shoe. Metallics are the usual go-to, but a nude pump or a snappy contrasty color like hot pink would be cute too. I wouldn't dictate heel height or style unless they're wearing a tea length dress.
I dont even remember what my girls wore..lol. I just told them to wear whatever. We had long gowns so it didn't really matter.
My BMs also got to choose their own shoe and they had short dresses. I just asked that they wore some type of gold shoe. Some already owned some, some bought nice heels they could rewear and others went to Payless and spent $10. That way it fit in their own budgets and were comfortable for them.
Unless you're paying for the shoes; I'd suggest choosing a color and letting them pick out what they like. And if you are paying for their shoes, I would reconsider and save your money. It's really not that big of a deal. You can barely tell:

i'm still slightly bitter about having to buy a pair of horribly uncomfortable shoes to wear under a floor-length gown for a friend's wedding. they were ugly, they were awful on, and NO ONE COULD SEE THEM.
let your girls pick their own shoes...or buy the ones you want for them. i had my BMs wear lime green pumps, and i knew they might not wear them again...so i bought them. plus flip-flops for the reception.
