Comfortable Wedding Shoes: Tips for Finding the Perfect Pair
Your wedding day is one of the most special and memorable days of your life, so you want to be comfortable and feel your best from start to finish. One way to ensure your comfort on the big day is by choosing the right wedding shoes.
When it comes to bridal shoes, it's important to find a pair that not only looks beautiful, but also feels comfortable and fits well. After all, you'll be wearing them for hours on end, so you want to make sure they won't give you blisters or cause any discomfort.
Here are some tips for finding the perfect pair of comfortable wedding shoes:
----------------------------------------------
Start your search early:
Don't wait until the last minute to start looking for your wedding shoes.
Give yourself plenty of time to try on different styles and find the perfect pair.
You should always have your shoes ready at your dress fitting so then it can be altered accordingly, you would not want to get your shoes last minute and be tripping on the hem of your dress!
Consider the length of your dress when choosing your shoes as well.
For example, if you are wearing a very long gown, lots of sparkles on your heel may cause snagging and damage to your dress.
----------------------------------------------
Consider the venue:
The type of shoes you choose should depend on the location of your wedding.
If you're getting married outdoors, for example, you might want to opt for a pair of flat sandals or wedges for a venue with alternative terrain.
A popular style for alternative terrain if you are a bride who wants some added height, our Hira sandals sit on a comfortable block heel for added comfort and stability.
If you're getting married in a formal venue, a pair of pumps or heels might be more appropriate.
The Brittney is an ideal choice for adding a little extra height with a smaller heel, with an elegant ivory satin finish.
----------------------------------------------
Choose the right fit:
Make sure your wedding shoes fit well and are comfortable.
If you have wide feet, consider looking for wide fit shoes to ensure a comfortable fit.
You might also want to try on shoes in half sizes to get the best fit.
We have a large selection of wide fit shoes for any bride to chose from.
We recommend going for a wider fit style if you usually wear a wider fit, or if you are aware that your feet tend to swell when being stood all day or in hotter weather.
The Holden is a perfect choice for a summer bride, with a lower block heel for stability, it still has a little bit of sparkle for an extra special touch!
If you choose a pair of shoes with a heel or a new pair of flats, be sure to break them in before the big day.
Wear them around the house or take them for a spin at your dress fitting or engagement shoot to make sure they're comfortable and won't cause any blisters.
----------------------------------------------
Opt for comfort, but don't sacrifice style:
While you want your wedding shoes to be beautiful, comfort should be your top priority.
Look for shoes with padded insoles, cushioning, or other comfort features to help keep your feet happy all day long.
But just because you want comfortable shoes doesn't mean you have to sacrifice style.
There are plenty of beautiful and comfortable wedding shoe options to choose from, so you can have the best of both worlds.
We have our Idina flats which are available in a champagne or silver glitter.
Both styles are made with glitter mesh and scattered with crystals, ensuring you feel like the princess you are.
The comfort padding in the soles will make you feel like you're walking on air.

Bring a pair of backup shoes:
Even if you choose the most comfortable wedding shoes, it's a good idea to bring a pair of backup shoes just in case.
These can be a pair of flip flops or ballet flats that you can slip into if your feet start to feel sore.
A perfect pair of flats are our Xeelia ballet flats.
Made in an ivory lace, these foldable flats are a cute alternative to heels and can be re worn again and again.
