Bridal Wedding Shoes Buying Guide & FAQ
How We Chose Our Selection Of Bridal Wedding Shoes
We used the following criteria to help you put your best bridal foot forward:
Brand - Nothing but the best for the bride on her big day so we’ve picked the brands that will give real style to the proceedings.
Price - With shoes to fit all budgets, only the wedding footwear that offers great value when it comes to design, and wear-ability made the guest list.
Reviews - There’s nothing like the first-hand experience so you can be sure that your dream pair of bridal shoes have passed the wedding day test.
Features To Look For In Bridal Wedding Shoes
Before you start some serious bridal shoe shopping, the following are key features to consider:
Style - Flat, slip-on, sky-high heel, pump or strappy, the style of shoe you choose is a personal choice, you’re the bride after all! But when picking the style of bridal shoe, make sure it also works with your dress as well as the location and type of wedding you’re having.
Design - Although you may think your bridal wedding shoes will not be on the show, they will be seen and so the design you choose needs to complement or enhance your dress and accessories. Go low key and sleek so your shoes are the finishing touch or look for bling, sparkle or a pop of color to make a real statement.
Comfort - As you’ll be spending most of your Big Day on your feet, you need to ensure your bridal wedding shoes max out on the comfort factor. Choose your heel height carefully and ensure that they not only work with your dress, but you can walk in them. Also look for comfort fabrics, insoles, and always get the right fit.
Types Of Wedding Shoes For The Bride
There are several main bridal wedding shoe styles that can help you decide which one is for you:
Flats & Wedges - An outdoor summer or beach wedding cries out for the right bridal wedding shoes; to keep you cool and elegant and to also take the terrain (hmmm, sand) in their stride. A wedge heel gives you the elevation to create a gorgeous silhouette, yet they are stable enough to ensure you glide over soft or sandy ground. Flats are also a good option – and for any wedding are a godsend as an emergency back-up if your high-heeled wedding party feet are starting to feel the strain!
Open Toe Shoes - An elegant option for a warm spring or summer wedding as you can pick the height of your heels and the open toe will help to keep you cool. They can either be super-cute or full-on glam and give you the chance to show off that immaculate pedi!
Close Toe Shoes - Perfect for a cooler season wedding or a more formal affair, close toe shoes go with most dresses and add a sophisticated touch to your once-in-a-lifetime dress. Go sky-high or mid-heel, pointed-toe or round. Close toe shoes also look stunning with embellishment or sparkle to create an extra special look.
High Sandals - For sheer gorgeousness that will see you from altar to reception, high sandals are a good choice for the modern bride. Open toe, high heel, ankle straps, or sling-back, high sandals look stunning with silhouette and mermaid dresses as well as a contemporary mid-length dress or trouser suit.
Bridal Wedding Shoes FAQ
Q: What kind of shoes should I wear to my wedding?
A: As the bride, this is your day and you get to choose your dream wedding outfit. But when deciding on your bridal wedding shoes, here are just a few things to consider: the venue, the time of year, the location (indoor or out), your wedding dress style, the height of heel you can comfortably walk in and how much dancing you plan to do!
Q: How do I choose wedding shoes?
A: The universal piece of advice is – choose your shoes AFTER you’ve picked your wedding dress. This way you’ll have good idea as to the type of shoe that will work with your outfit, the best color options and the height of heel you need.
One final tip… always choose your bridal shoes before your dress fittings as the dressmaker will need to know the heel height of the shoes to ensure your wedding dress is the perfect length.
Q: How do you match shoes with a dress?
A: Once you’ve chosen your dress, you’ll have a good idea as to the wish-list for your shoes. Matching your shoes will then depend on the style of dress, the color, any distinct features, and dress length. You can then decide whether to go for a total match (eg, color, lace), opt for a theme (eg, if your dress has a vintage vibe or go for shoes with embellishments or details that will complement your dream wedding dress.
