Finally… the Shoes!

June 2nd, 2008 @ 3:03 pm by Mrs. Tiramisu

UPDATE!
Thanks for all the entries! The winner of the blue shoes is….

Finally... the Shoes! :  wedding maine shoes Picture0112Commenter #39, laurag!

Looks like between all of us bees, we’ve now sold that website out of those blue shoes! If you’re still looking for some, there are tons of great suggestions in the comments of this post. Good luck!

~~~

I cannot thank you guys enough. When I first posted about my trouble finding blue shoes, I received a TON of comments with awesome suggestions. I checked out all of your suggestions, and I’ve finally chosen the one! Thank you, thank you, to weddingbee reader Kalen, who suggested these:
Finally... the Shoes! :  wedding maine shoes Fargo HThey are perfect, and here they are (even better in person):

Blue, peep-toe, not too high, and the bow detail even almost-matches the shoes my bridesmaids will be wearing. I’ve worn them around the house a little, and get this- they are even comfortable!

I did also purchase a pair of flat shoes to wear at the reception since it will be on a lawn and I don’t want to be sinking into the grass all night.
Finally... the Shoes! :  wedding maine shoes Picture0108I’m not sure how to hem my dress though- for the taller shoes or the flat shoes? Did anyone else run into a problem with changing into flat shoes later on?

Thank you all once again for all of your blue shoe suggestions!

PS. I ordered the blue shoes in both an 8 and an 8.5 (because my feet are an annoying 8.25), and I’ve passed the deadline to return the 8.5s. Anybody want them?

Tiramisu, consider getting a chunky pair of white flip flops, like from Rocket Dog or Reef…no sinking, and no dress-dragging issues! (Though I have to say, the flatties you found are way cute.) :-)

i already know that i’ll be doing the heels for the ceremony and then flats for the reception so i plan on hemming the dress for the flats [i'll be doing a low heel so it won't be too much of a difference]. that way, i wouldn’t have to worry about stepping on my dress plus my ceremony shoes will be seen. a definite plus since i plan on getting blue shoes as well.

They are adorable! Curse my average-height fiance! If I get them though, I’ll just make him wear heels too :D.

I love those shoes! but your blog does’nt say where they are from. Where did you get them? I also love those cute flats. Where are they from?

I wore flat shoes for the ceremony and heels for the reception. We hemmed for the flat shoes. I think it made sense because I didn’t ruin the bottom of my dress. If the heels are too high though, it might look funny. Mine we just a couple inches.

They are very cute and a great color!!! I would love to win them….

Do you want them to show underneath the dress? That would be a nice eye catcher.

Oooh, I am an 8.5! Please include me!

I would adjust the hem so that it doesn’t drag on the ground for your flats. It’s OK if your hem doesn’t completely cover your cute blue shoes!

Alternately, you might consider changing into a reception dress and avoid the hem dilemma altogether.
