Once upon a time a bride emails all her
bridesmaids with a vague email about a cute pair of yellow flats, comfy and
classy, with a touch of hip sprinkled on top. A couple months later the wedding day is upon
us. Bride with little yellow flats and a bridesmaid with little yellow flats.
Bridesmaid mortified "On no! I didn't understand your email, I bought the
shoes, I thought that you wanted us to buy them!" Bride "Yeah,
I did, I really liked them, I thought you guys would too." This little
scenario isn't bad…only the one bridesmaid who actually bought them felt bad,
but she was soon over it because the shoes were so perfect for the beautiful rolling
hills of Riverside Farm in Vermont.
To match or not to match is a big
question. Fully loaded like a baked potato. As a bride you can let your girls
choose their own footwear (they might do this anyway, there is always one
bridesmaid rebel without a cause) or you can request they all wear the same
shoes. All I ask is that the shoes are cute! It is so much fun when all the
girls come matching, dressed to the 9's with their different personalities
shining through their well planned shoe decisions.
But, here's a little food for
thought and this is all hypothetical and as far as I can remember this has not
happened, yet. What if the bridesmaids all bring their own unique shoes and one
upstages the brides shoes!?? Maybe the bride should just see all of the shoes,
just in case…
