I wore navy for my daughters weding, and chose a silver shoe. Since it was a fall wedding I didn't want bright blingy silver.  I went with a metaic grey/silver strappy sandle with a low heel (bad feet & walking issues).   

Choose whatever you love & enjoy the day!

I've tried having fabric shoes dyed navy.  They never got a match. (They dyed them 3 times)

 

I'd go with the metallic of the jewerly you are wearing.  Unlike when we dyed our shoes to match, metallic you will actually be able to wear again.

 

Congratulations and have fun.

Back in my day everyone that stood up to a wedding wore dyed to match shoes! Woman Surprised


@ID2 Back in my day too but not so much now.  I've seen weddings recently where all the bridesmaids wore different styles of dresses in the same color.  Matchy-match is out. 


I agree!  "Dyed to match" feels like something people did in 1982.

@Kachina624 here on the East coast it's not out, not for formal events anyway !  Ithink I would wear navy dyed to match shoes/sandals  and a navy beaded purse or silver shoes/sandals  and a silver beaded purse.  Of course it all depends on the style of your gown.

Yeah, I think it's back again. You know how these things go. They recycle back around.
