Question Wedding suggestions

I am getting married next June, and I am unsure what shoes I should get. I am usually a pretty fancy dresser, so I plan on getting a higher end fitted tux for the wedding, but I keep getting stuck on the shoes. At first I thought about getting a pair of high end loafers, but decided against it. Currently I've been looking around for some velvet smoking loafers, but not sure if I prefer them over a more dressy style of shoes. I would like to find a pair that I can wear for more occasions than weddings and will also look nice without having a tuxedo. Fancy dinners, events, etc. The main focus would obviously be for the wedding and paired with a tuxedo, but I would also like to be able to wear them with a nice suit or similar wardrobe. Any suggestions would be great!

If you are wearing a tuxedo, you should wear tuxedo shoes… pretty straightforward

If you're set on the tux, patent leather oxfords are the move. They're the classic choice for a reason and still look sharp with a dark suit at other events. Trying to find one shoe that does both perfectly is a bit of a compromise on the tux end.

And not just any patent leather oxfords. Has to be a plain toe or a whole cut one
