Picking out your wedding outfit and accessories can be extremely fun, but it can also be a little bit stressful during the planning process. If you haven’t picked out your wedding shoes yet, then this blog is for you! Let’s go over some of the most important things to think about when it comes to picking out your wedding shoes and making sure that they make sense for your big day.
Your Dress
Most people pick out their dress before they pick out their shoes and that’s totally okay! However, we recommend that you bring a pair of shoes with you to pick out and try on wedding dresses. Doing this can give you an idea of how the dress might look with the type of shoe that you’re planning to wear.
If you forget to bring shoes to pick out a dress, consider asking your bridal stylist if they have a pair of shoes that you can borrow. This can give you important insights into how the dress you pick will look on your big day, so it’s an important detail to take into account.
Comfortability
Some people care more about comfortability than others when it comes to their wedding shoes. However, you’re likely going to be wearing your shoes for an extended period of time, so it’s important to make sure that they’re comfortable.
If you find a pair of shoes that you love but aren’t very comfortable with, think about some ways that you may be able to modify the shoes to fit your feet. Nobody wants blisters on their wedding day, so make sure that you do everything you can to avoid this happening.
Multiple Options
It can be helpful to have multiple options for your wedding day when it comes to shoes. Having a backup pair of shoes can not only provide you with peace of mind, but it can also be helpful if something happens to the other pair of shoes. Consider finding a second pair of shoes that’s in a different style than your main pair of shoes, as that might be a way to help if your first pair is uncomfortable or rubs on your feet.
Breaking Them In
It’s really important that you break in your shoes before you wear them. Carving out some time to wear your shoes ahead of time is a good way to make sure that you’re prepared and that you’re ready to commit to that pair of shoes for your wedding day.
Your Venue
Taking your venue into account is essential when it comes to picking the right shoes. If you picked an indoor venue, then you’ll likely have a lot more options when it comes to shoes that are practical. With that being said, there are many different shoe options that work great for outdoor venues – don’t be afraid to try out multiple different types of shoes before you commit to the one that you want to wear on your big day.
