Choose a Special Pair of Shoes
Award wining shoe designer Rachel Simpson says " choose shoes that makes you feel amazing ! Even if your dress is floor length, giving your guests the occasional peek of an exquisite pair of shoes will make you feel like a true princess. Wedding shoes don't have to be boring, combine classic style with fashionable detailing and you'll love them for years."
You need to Find Comfortable Wedding Shoes
Remember, you will be wearing your shoes from early in the morning until the last thing at night.
Proper wedding shoes are specially designed with comfort in mind and have additional padding exactly for this purpose. Don't make the mistake of buying cheap shoes that lack this padding and the extra support that makes wearing them not just tolerable, but comfortable, on your big day.
Thus is why we always suggest that you order your shoes with plenty of time, particularly if you are having them customized. This will take a lot of the pressure off you, and ensure that when the time of your big day comes around, everything is perfect.
How should your bridal shoes fit with your dress ?
It's really important that you have your shoes for your dress fittings. This mean that your dressmaker can tailor the hem of your wedding dress to the perfect length.

Heel height, sexy heels or versatile flats ?
Our suggestion to brides is that they sticks what they are used to and comfortable with on their wedding day. So, if you normally wear 4 inch heels and you choose this heel height for your wedding shoes, then you know that you'll be comfortable.
Ultimately, if you're not used to wearing sky high heels, then why take the chance on your big day ? It's probably not the time to experiment, and comfort is probably the most important factor for brides.
However,if you do want some height then great alternatives are available like platform heels or lower kitten heels, while satin ballet slippers make beautiful bridal shies for those of us that prefer flats.
Wear them in
New shoes can pinch and cause soreness from rubbing. Pop your new wedding shoes on with clean feet a few weeks before your wedding day ad walk around on a carpet floor ( You'll look like a superstar in your slobs and wedding shoes whilst cooking your dinner). By doing this, you will feel where the shoes is causing any rubbing and give you time to make any adjustments and stretch them out some more.
Put a strap on it
Pick wedding shoes that will allow flexibility, wear ability and most importantly stability. The last thing anyone wants is a black eye from our shoe flying off mid-way through the ketchup song. The best thing you can do is pick a shoe with a secure heel hold or a strap that will help it stay on your foot ( may sound obvious but it's so important you don't injure anyone around you). If you have chosen to wear heeled shoes higher than you normally would, then we would highly recommend purchasing a strap shoe for comfort.
Wedding Shoe Mistakes to Avoid
There are plenty of to-do's on your wedding list, but your wedding shoes can make or break your day If you pick a pair of wedding shoes that's uncomfortable, unflattering, or downright painful, you'll be sorry you did. But, if you take a few of these wedding shoe tips to heart you'll keep you feet happy, accentuate your style and you'll be able to dance the night away.
Forgetting to break in your shoes before the wedding
The last thing you want is the wobble down the aisle or deal with blisters on the best day of your life. Once you buy your wedding shoes under your desk at work to break them in.
Wearing the wrong wedding shoes for you
White wedding shoes are not a requirement. Bright pops of colour are in, and we give them bonus points for being re-wearable after the wedding day. Also, heels aren't your only option. If you don't like heels or never wear them, skip them first you don't want to trip in them. Second, you won't feel comfortable in them if you're not used to the added height. And third, you should stay true to your own personal style. A certain style of shoe isn't set in stone. it's more important to be yourself abd feel comfortable in what you're wearing. Would you rather wear sandals, cowboy boots, sneakers, or go barefoot ? Do it !Forgetting a spare pair
Stuff happens, heels break, your shoe can make your feet hurt, or you may want heels for photos but sandals for dancing. In a case, bring a spare pair of shies just in case.
Wearing the wrong wedding shoes for your dress.
It is best to buy your wedding shoes before your dress fittings. The shoes you choose will play a large part in your overall look. If you want to wear flip flops or go barefoot, you'll want your dress to be long enough to cover your feet. If you want to wear heels, you'll want to make sure your dress is lengthened to allow for the extra height so it's not too short and the same goes for wearing flats. You don't want your dress to drag on the floor.
