As above. Brown shoes for the country, black for anything else.

Black shoes. You'll look like Gene Hunt or Arthur Daley in brown

Deffo. black shoes.

With a light grey suit a plain white shirt and pink tie would go well for a wedding.

The colour doesn’t make much difference to me. I was wearing black shoes about a couple of weeks back and I still couldn’t see that they were shit on my shoe. I only realised when I walked into my mates flat on the fourth floor and he complained that I put shit on his carpet. I’m going to buy brown shoes next so I have a better excuse. I couldn’t see because of the disguise!

I have no sense of smell either..

Dearie me, you're all so dull ... it all depends on what shade of grey the suit is .... but as it's a formal occasion, I guess it's not the time to experiment so I'll say nice, safe and boring black too.

But not those bloody awful "bank clerk" black brogues from Clarks.

White loafers would look cool, especially if worn with pastel socks

Should go for the full Miami Vice. White linen suit, bright shirt, canvas shoes.
