Shoes glorious shoes

Get in step when buying your bridal shoes!





♥   Aim to choose your shoes around the same time as your dress, remember you will need to have them for future fittings in determining the length of your wedding dress.

♥    When your in store shopping, a good indicator of a must have shoe is “on shelf appeal” where you just have to try them on!. This will quickly help refine your choice in style. However if ordering bridal shoes online, the best thing to do is order early in order to leave lots of time to return or exchange.

♥   Wear within your comfort zone of heel size. If you’re not used to wearing skyscraper heels, don’t worry there is a great selection of platform or classic lower heel alternatives nowadays to suit.

♥   Follow fit or size guides but remember each designer shoe size may fit very differently, which can be a difficulty if buying online.

♥   Remember to wear them about the house on carpet a good 6 times to make sure you have mastered them and reached your comfort level. This may highlight a place where you may need extra cushioning.  There is great gel cushions on the market now to see you right.

♥   White/Cream shoes are the traditional colour but there are so many other romantic styles and soft shades, times are changing and there is an explosion of choice for statement shoes.

♥   Match your shoe style to your theme, country garden wedding, vintage style, Boho or Ethereal neutrals.

♥   If you have a preloved pair, you could always have them customised to make them into that something special for your day. Plus you can match a shade in dying your shoes your perfect shade.

♥   Remember if your wedding reception is outdoors, you could have heel protectors on standby, they keep your heels clean in case you need to walk on grass to obtain those all too important wedding shots.

♥   Don’t panic over shoe comfort for entire day – you can always have another pair of shoes for the early hours dancing!.

♥   Don’t forget Pamper your feet – get a pedicure treat and you’ll have your glam toes for your honeymoon too.

♥   Are wedding shoes just for one day? Dye them, shoe clip them or plain wear them on honeymoon. I bet when you wear them a second time memories will surface from that fantastic wedding day!
