TIPS ON BUYING SHOES FOR YOUR WEDDING

True or false: the first thing people notice about a blushing bride is the quality of her shoes. False, it's not the first thing. But it's still something they might sneak a peak at as she passes people down the aisle. Therefore when looking for the right wedding shoes, just like the right groom, your shoes must meet some requirements.

Comfortable Shoes
You're going to be on your feet for a long time. You will walk down the aisle, pose for photographs, meet and greet your guests, cut the cake, dance and then walk back to the car and home-all in your bridal shoes. Comfort is definitely the most important issue. In addition to comfortable high heels, also take a pair of sandals so all the running around before the wedding won't do a number on your feet. You might also want to try out platform heels or lower kitten heels; these shoes are high but less difficult to work than stilettos. Whatever shoe you choose, especially if its a stiletto high heel then practice walking in the shoes long before the wedding! You don't want to be tripping and cringing on that big walk down.





One More Option
You can also choose to have the best of both worlds the elegance of formal shoes and the comfort of sandals. Instead of going with high heels, you can always wear a pair of flat, satin ballet slippers. They are beautiful shoes-and even if guests are that unwholesomely concerned with checking out your shoes, they won't be disappointed.





Choosing The Right Fabric
Two popular choices for fabrics in wedding shoes are silk and satin. This is not a hard fashion rule; obviously your personal taste can play a factor here. The less traditionally white the wedding is going to be, the more freedom there is in shoe selection. There is room for personality, as the shoe, like the dress, should try and match the personality of the bride. Beyond all else, your shoes must match the entire setting and color theme of your wedding.

While a bride's shoes aren't the most important thing on the wedding day, some of all that love and attention should still be given to the feet.
