Can I Wear Ivory Shoes?

I am wearing a white wedding dress and am just wondering...is it a "no no" to wear any other colour shoe other than white? Or would ivory be an acceptable colour to wear?

Of course you can wear ivory. Your wedding style should be your own - it should reflect your personality and who you are as a bride.

However, if you are hesitant mixing the two shades of white, I suggest you compliment the ivory shoes with one or a combination of the following:

  • Wear pearls...they instantly add classic glamour, and their ivory tone will work well with your shoes.
  • Carry ivory flowers...whether roses, lilies, ranunculus or tulips, ivory blooms will balance out the top with the bottom.
  • Wear an ivory wrap or an ivory headpiece...

I always think it's creative when people wear fun shoes. My soon-to-be-sister-in-law is wearing canary yellow shoes with her gown...it's that extra, tiny piece of flare!
