What shoes with this suit?

Hey all... I was trying to figure out what shoes to wear with a suit I will
be wearing to get married in and I kept finding my way back to this forum.

There seems to be a lot of great opinions here, so I wanted to see what
you thought about what shoes would look best with my suit.

It's a khaki colored with white pin stripes, linen suit (beach wedding). I can't find
a pic online, but it's Ralph Lauren if that helps anyone.

In my head I kept picturing white shoes looking good with it, but now that I
bought a pair, I just don't know if I'm feeling it.

Here's the shoes I got: http://www.journeys.com/product.aspx?id=208122

If you need to see a picture of the suit, let me know and I can upload one.

Thanks!

I was thinking about that. My bride doesn't really want me to go barefoot,
plus we are having a reception back home a few weeks later so I
will be wearing the suit again.

These should tidy up that suit of yours.

How about a pair of Grey distressed Jack Purcel with no socks and the cuffs rolled up?

Then at home, wear a pair of suede buck?

I think the suede buck idea is great - but wear them for your wedding too, looks sharper than the loafers you posted and is sure as hell a better alternative to those Lobb-Aston monstrosities.

Yeah, I love the suede buck idea, too.

What color do you think would look the best? My biggest
trouble has been with color.
