Out of those options, I like the sky blue ones best.

I still prefer black shoes with the suit.

Black, it's a formal affair... I'd likely wear a mid grey sock, if that helps.

Yeah, for a wedding I'd wear black shoes and mid to dark grey socks.

Weddings are celebratory too- feel free to go with a little more whimsy. I wear brown shoes to weddings all the time, and unless it's a really conservative affair, you're fine with having a little more fun with things.

black shoes will do it.

the only option for a wedding.

The time was long overdue for a "What sock do I wear with a solid gray suit thread" on Styleforum.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

I'm hopeful that this issue can be explored in depth over the next few pages.

i recommend to have another hundred to receive a statistical valid result.

I'd go with black shoes but perhaps a more interesting tie than solid navy - read the wedding tie thread. Wear whatever socks you fancy.

YMMV, but for me, I'd wear black shoes.

I assume this wedding is morning/afternoon and/or not in a house of worship of some sort?

If not then your choice of suit is suspect, first and foremost.

Personally, I go with black. Or, if feeling like the wedding was informal enough that I should 'break the mold', oxblood or burgundy shoes. Lighter shades of brown I would not do with light gray, to me it looks odd regardless - not enough contrast.
