How can I style trainers for wedding?

Ds is getting married in August, it is a registry office wedding. I'm disabled & unable to wear normal shoes due to arthritis & neuropathy. I have found a dress but I can't work out to style it with trainers, I intend to buy a new pair so they are spotless for the day.

Beautiful dress. I'd definitely go for brightly coloured trainers over white ones. You'll look amazing

I quite like these Skechers, I need footwear with support

The sketchers would look great with your dress and would be supportive and light for August
I just wanted to reassure you
I'm disabled with Cerebral Palsy and for my wedding I wore pale pink converse with my pink Laura Ashley dress. No one even noticed what I had on my feet, so you'll be fine

I find air force 1s super comfortable and they have ones like these as well as plainer colours. https://www.nike.com/gb/t/air-force-1-07-shoes-XFPRQc/FD0801-100

I wore Pastrys to my own wedding but they can come up small. They have some great designs though if you can get hold of them on this country.

Lovely dress. It will look perfect with box fresh white trainers, maybe with a bit of silver trim.

No. Gleaming white trainers will stick out like a sore thumb against that beautiful riot of colours and draw attention to the OP's feet and away from the dress. The shoes should pick a colour from the dress.

The Australian site has beautiful shoes in a whole range of colours.

nc13467 · 28/03/2023 21:49

Absolutely lovely the dress.

I agree bright pink or orange trainers would look fab, but I also think white could work too. Personally I think chunky soled trainers look best with dresses

sevenbyseven · 28/03/2023 21:51

That dress is a great choice and will go well with trainers. I'd wear white but I agree with others bright colours would go well too.

SageRosemary · 28/03/2023 21:59

I am seeing some red in that dress - https://www.qvcuk.com/Skechers-Uno-Goldcrown-Trainer.product.196204.html
Multicoloured but neutral too - https://www.qvcuk.com/Rieker-Multicoloured-Floral-Print-Trainer.product.196546.html
A couple of neutral colours including silver here, handy zip too, wedge style - https://www.qvcuk.com/Moda-in-Pelle-Avery-Wedge-Trainer.product.191954.html
Taupe slip on - https://www.qvcuk.com/Skechers-Flex-Renew-Shimmer-Show-Slip-On-Shoe.product.189570.html
A little dressier, to pick up on blue or aqua in the dress, these have a zip too which would make opening them whilst seated at the table easy enough to manage - https://www.qvcuk.com/Adesso-Faye-Zip-Trainer.product.192777.html

I think a bright pair of trainers will work well with that dress, it’s just a souped up version of the standard issue midi with white trainers.

Agree. You have go bright.

CrotchetyQuaver · 28/03/2023 22:48

I agree with matching the trainer colour to one of the dress colours rather than plain white ones. That's a lovely dress!

OneFrenchEgg · 28/03/2023 22:52

I'd go leather rather than the forested type fabric if you can.

Try fitflops, all their footware have memory foam insoles and arch support. I have issues with my feet and need arch support and can only wear fitflops. I have loads of different styles.

What about converse or birkenstock clogs?

Partyandbullshit · 28/03/2023 23:17

Gold sparkly trainers?

Calmontheoutsider · 28/03/2023 23:21

These are pretty but wouldn’t detract from the beautiful dress:

They look like sports shoes.

WomanFromTheNorth · 28/03/2023 23:28

The dress is gorgeous!

jackstini · 28/03/2023 23:33

Dress is fab!!

Do you like a bit of sparkle? These could work

I wore these for my wedding! I LOVE them and still wear them a lot now! Kate Spade shoes

Those are really nice. The gold would work brilliantly.

VaggieMight · 29/03/2023 00:53

Not hot pink shoes/trainers. Visualise it on the model. It's too much. Go for orange like the model or turquoise, or a contrast colour like gold.
