Shoe help please

msdrdg

Admittedly I am severely fashion challenged. 
We have 2 weddings in the next 2 months and I actually went out and bought a new dress, but I have no idea what to wear on my feet.
Incase it matters, I am 5'2", DH is 6'.  I am a clutz so I can't really do too high of a heel.  Both weddings are in Catholic churches (side note, do I need a sweater or something to cover my shoulders?) on Friday evenings.  Budget is LOW.  If there is something I could wear again, with jeans would be awesome.

I am assuming the recpetion isn't super dressy, right?

If you want something you will get a lot of use out of-- I reccomend either a metallic or nude shoe.  I could see you weaing a wedge with jeans- maybe something like this?

Also, I think you are fine to go sleveless in the Catholic church, unless it's a super traditional congregation.  You could always keep a cardigan or blazer in your car and check out what everyone else is wearing.

I would go with something very simple, black, and strappy because of the bold but neat print of the dress. You could find success at stores like Payless and JC Penney, especially with all of the back to school sales going on!

These are cute, too:

I like these shoes with that dress.

And sleeveless is fine. It's not Sunday mass, it's a wedding with people of all denominations.

I think these would look great with the dress.

Edited to add:  In black.  It linked to the taupe ones but I like them in black.
