What should I know before choosing my bridal shoes? Should I look for comfort or just beauty? These might be just a couple of questions that come to your mind when looking for the best outfit for your wedding day. Furthermore, after the dress, bridal footwear is the most critical decision. You shouldn’t take it lightly!
That said, there are some basic unwritten rules every bride should keep in consideration in choosing the best shoes for her marriage. Please see below a few tips to look stylish and fashionable on your big day!
Buy brand shoes
The great masters of style are never wrong. Rely on the best brands that care the bridal look. Oscar Della Renta, Carolina Herrera and Jenny Packham for the most classical for romantic brides; Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blahnik and Louboutin for fashionistas; Valentino, Gucci and Sergio Rossi for lovers of Made in Italy.

Go High!
High-heeled shoes will make you feel more confident and attractive. Heels will make your silhouette more slender, and your beauty will benefit from it, as well as your dress.
Heels are the most appreciated help for wedding photographers; your femininity will be enhanced in your pictures. Whether you choose a short or long gown, heels are always very recommended, especially for the photo album.
Don’t take them white!
Rarely shoes are made of same fabric of the wedding dress. If not, the colours might look different. Opt for another tone to avoid any problem.
Match them with your wedding’s palette
Choose a sober tone that recalls the bouquet or bridesmaids’ dresses. Keep in consideration the location as well. A sandal with jewels is perfect for a beach wedding, while the one in the picture is ideal for a wedding in a castle. Getting married in winter with stockings? Choose a classic, elegant, closed shoes.
Don’t go cheap!
Don’t let the budget affect the choice. There won’t be any backup plan after the wedding, and you might regret a wrong decision for the rest of your life. Moreover, shoes are one of the few things you can reuse next. Hopefully, you can wear them again for a party – or maybe for your friends’ weddings. Great shoes are always a good investment!
