Custom Converse? UPDATED! Ours arrived *Flash*

I think they're ace ... going to see if I can get a jade green pair for the evening.

Love the idea of the FG wearing them ... my two little ones would love them and I have chosen the same dress for them ... is that from Monsoon? xx

Yes it was from Monsoon. I let her choose it herself (I had gone in there previously, and she could have chosen any dress in there and she would have looked gorgeous). It's a really nice dress, and very soft and flowy, perfect for little people to wear.

Off the top of my head I don't know what shoe size she is. I don't know what size feet 2-3 year olds have, or what size converse go down to, I'll have to text her mum to find out!

*Mini* - I am not clever enough to multi-quote yet, but I'm really pleased to hear another Groom wore them all day. This has now become H2Bs plan!

I'm also pleased everyone seems to think they are ok. I thought I have loads of 'Nooooooooooooooooooo it'll be terrrible' comments. Although I would have probably got them anyway!

I think these are great, funnily enough I was looking at some the other day (think it was a blog). Apparently Schuh do sparkly ones but they're not personalised. I am very tempted to get a white pair for myself and a black pair for OH with the Mr & Mrs personalisation.

We've got quite a size gap too - I'm 5'2" and OH is 6'3"! Nice to know I'm not alone and we have the benefit of being able to wear any size heels we like ? for height and comfort I always go platform sandal style. Dune shoes are usually quite comfy I find. I want to be able to dance like a lunatic at the reception though so I'll be kicking off my heels.

Thought I would pop back and show MrMini in his converse

And yes...that is a brown cordroy suit!

When I saw this thread yesterday, I thought of you Mini. I was positive your H wore custom Converse. They look brill. I would love OH to wear some too, but I doubt he will. Would be awesome if we both had some!

I wore custom converse under my dress for our evening reception. I made a point of showing all my guests as i did them myself, everyone loved them. I found it a relief to get my wedding heels off tbh.

I had our initals C K added onto the outer side of my boots in swarovski crystals and ivory ribon as the laces. I still wear them now (obviously with the proper laces in them) and i get loads of comments asking where i got them from. Iv actually started to personalise friends converse now as i really enjoyed mine!

Ill try and dig out a pic, if not ill take one of them how they look now.

Not the clearest pics So when i have a mo ill take another of the detail on them. my guests took these pics. (sorry about the last pic, i was talking about the twinkling lights on the ceiling above me. haha)

We love this site and wanted to have custom converse for the kids in our bridal party however, uk site doesnt do it for kids yet and usa site wont allow them to be posted to uk!! really annoying!! so we are now on the look out for ways to customise plain converse!

Canvas warriors and punk my chucks do custom converse. all hand painted to anything you want. they are pricey though x

Our very own Ozzy converse. Excuse the cat and the millions of wine glass charms in progress!

These are awesome!

I got my OH some for Christmas and he loved them... we both wear cons a lot (I can't walk in heels so 75% of my time is spent in various shades of converse) so I'll be getting some and wearing them all day (my dress covers them and to be honest, i don't think our guest will think anything less of me!)

I'm still not sure about gettin all white or seeking our the silver glitter ones they did a few years back!

So cool. I'm still trying to convince myself that they'll be ok to wear with my knee length dress...don't think it'll happen somehow ☹️ x

I love them! They look awesome!

I wear converse with dresses all the time (I never wear jeans or trousers or shorts!)

This makes me sad. I can't wear Converse as they're too 'flat' for me. Nothing would give me greater pleasure than stomping around in a pair of Kurt Cobain blacks. [:'(]

I think you should definitely wear them, they'll look amazing.

I got my daughter some personalised Converse for her birthday, her and my H2B LIVE in them, refuse to wear anything else, so ofcourse he is wearing some for our wedding day.

He'll be wearing them all day though as he *hates* dress shoes (he hand cuts them for a living!). He's having the usual hi top boots but he's undecided on whether to have the date on the outer or the heel strip

Here is a pic of the ones Charlotte, my daughter chose, her nickname 'Charbear' is on the heel strip

Amazing!!

I'm the groom and my oh hates high heels and we have both ordered ourselves a pair to wear all day plus ushers and bm are wearing just black converse

These are awesome! I 'need' some now!

They are great ... definitely going to design some green ones now!

I ❤️ them!

Thanks guys! I'm a little bit in love with them too!

Oh I like DB! Very nice ?

I LOVE these! I was after some regular Converse trainers to wear in the evening under my dress, but am definitely going to have a look at custom ones. Bet they're expensive though!

Mine are the normal all-stars, and were £54.99. The un-personalised ones from somewhere like Schuh are around the £40 mark. So they are more expensive, but I think it's because there is so much choice and you can change the colour of every section, they need to be hand-made because no two pairs are going to be the same.

Mr (or should I say Dr!) DB got the leather version rather than canvas and I have no idea how much men's shoes are supposed to be!

Not as bad as I thought. Now, what colours should I get?!

Does the flash keep crashing for anyone else?

The website doesn't work at work for me...

I take it back, its working again!!!

Now I can't decide on colours!!!!

Tell me about it! I want something I'll wear after the wedding as well.

I so far have a dark grey and pink pair, a white and purple pair... trying to picture my wardrobe and work out which ones would go with most!

I was leaning towards light or dark grey, as I think I'll get the most use out of those afterwards (I don't own any Converse yet, but have always wanted a pair). Not sure what colour accents I'd go for though. Hmmmm...

I don't have any yet either but want these!!

I want something funky but not too restrictive!

Most of my wardrobe is black, grey, pink or yellow!
