I don't know about boots with a formal gown (I'm thinking satin with beading and maybe pickups kind of thing), but I think coloured shoes are great!
ETA: I went with a red sandal.
I voted definately a do!!!
I will be wearing blue shoes with my gown.
I think pink boots would be cute; depending on what your gown looks like. On one of the wedding shows, a girl wore cowboy boots and it was adorable.
i think they're so fun! a little bit of color can make a fabulous difference. excited to see what you choose!
I say a do (cause I did it) but it is really up to you and your personality.
I vote yes on colored shoes! I wore pink peep toes and they weren't very visible at all, but I asked our photographer to take some shots with the shoes in them, and those are some of my favorite pictures.
Colored shoes are so fun! They're definitely a 'do' in my book. I had lime green shoes and love the pics of them poking out under the dress!
I wore blue shoes, but they were formal shoes (satin with bling on them). I don't know about wearing boots or less formal shoes with a formal gown, no matter what color they are--but it really depends on what the boots look like.
colored shoes are very much a trend right now, and i love it! i'm not so sure about wearing boots though. can you post a pic?
If you love them, get them! It's your wedding, you get to be the kind of bride you want to be!
I'm going to be wearing blue shoes and decorate them with sparkles with my seven year old niece. It's going to be fun and cute, although not at the height of fine fashion (I'm not a fashionista in my real life, why try to be someone I'm not in my bride life!).
As a side note, my niece is really concerned that I'm going to wear blue shoes with a white dress. I've managed to convince her that this will be ok after explaining the whole "something blue".
I love colored shoes under a wedding dress. I say go for it.
Do you have a picture of the boots, I am sure everyone would love to see them.
I voted a definite do! I wore pink shoes under my formal gown, and I'm so glad I did. They made me feel special.
If you think about it, color is a part of the wedding. We choose our wedding colors and incorporate them in so many ways, the flowers, the napkins, bows, etc. Why not in our shoes?
I think if you love the boots and can imagine them with your dress, then go for it! It's your wedding, not ours.
I'm looking for pink shoes myself, maybe Mary Janes for their support.
I think boots and a January wedding fit perfectly! And you won't freeze your toes off when you go outside :)
My dress is short, and I'm wearing blue shoes to add a bit of personality. I say go for the pink boots!
I'm definitely going for a coloured shoe when it comes time to choose 'em! I just haven't picked which colour - sparkly silver that glitters (aka whats hot right now in holiday fashion) deep, rich blue (for my 'something blue) or even a pair in bright burnt orange! (if that makes any sense whatsoever....?)
Go for the pink boots! Alternatively, if you're really torn between the two, have both! You could walk down the aisle in the white slingbacks and then change into the boots for photos & reception! Best of both worlds, really!
@MzMarzipan: I just have to say that I LOVE your shoes! The colour! The style! The obvious gorgeousness of the bride rocking em! So beautiful! <3
(woah, that was a lot of exclamation marks. sorry. eep.)
I wore pink shoes that I got from Zappos (ordered 6 pairs and tried them on and sent back the ones I didn't like). I put blue inserts into the bottom to cover the 'something blue'.
They were a huge hit!! They just barely peeked out from the bottom of my dress. I'm not a shoe person, but I love, love these shoes. I still put them on to walk around my house just for fun.
Even better when I wore a shorter white dress in Vegas to get legally married. It's hard to get people's attention in Vegas, but I was turning head (and had people shouting how much they loved my shoes), but these shoes (with the white dress) did it.
FYI-- For any shoes, don't just walk around in them to break them in. Try standing for 15-20 mins in one place. My shoes were totally broken in for walking, but standing at the alter in one place, my feet started to kill me, something about the blood pooling. Ouch!!

Although I will be wearing ivory shoes, I think it's a definite do if that's what you want. Some of the colored shoes look beautiful!
i'm with SapphireSun-- def yes to the colors, but not so sure about the boots part...
Colored shoes!!!
I actually ordered the shoes Ms. Marzipan suggested and they are really cute AND comfortable. I sent them back only because they weren't "pink" enough for me and I thought the ruffles in the shoe would be ruffle overkill since my dress has ruffles.
I think colored shoes are a fun idea with a dress. At my sisters wedding we all wore red shoes, including the bride. I am thinking about doing colored shoes as well. It's a fun little pop.
I loved colored shoes with white wedding dresses!!
I have a pair of purple satin shoes to wear with my champagne lace wedding dress. I will be going up for my first fitting at the end of January, and I hope they go together! *crosses fingers*
I think I will be really sad if I can't ever wear my wedding shoes again, i.e., they probably can't be white!
Colored shoes with formal wedding gowns actually seem to be something of a fad right now. So if that's what you want, go ahead--you'll be in style.
Hi I have a solution to protecting your beautiful white wedding shoes. Try Heels Above, they are shoe protectors that protect them from the dirt, and sinking anywhere outdoors or getting caught between cracks. They come in clear, so they hardly show when you wear them. They also come in black. I found them on the internet, and if you want them for your bridesmaids they are great, and your friends will be very happy to have them. Dena

I know my date is right around the corner and I'd completely forgotten about shoes. :( So now I'm scrambling to find some. I found a cute pair of hot pink boots on Ebay that are pretty much love, however I also found a pair of white sling backs that are beautiful. I can't decide white or color.
