Your Bridal Shoes Possibly the MOST Important Choice You'll
Make!
"I could have danced all night ..."
You definitely won't be singing that tune if your feet hurt! Selecting
the shoes to wear on your wedding day may very well be the most
important choice you make.
Here are 5 great tips to help ease the pain!
1. If you are wearing a long gown, it's likely that
no one will ever see your feet. Some brides wear ballet slippers
or decorated tennis shoes under their gowns!
2. If you want the added height that a heel provides,
consider a platform style shoe.
3. Shop for your shoes in the Spring, especially around
Easter! There's a huge selection of white shoes at most shoe stores.
With larger selections, you aren't relegated to the "typical"
bridal shoe and you have a better chance of finding a comfortable
pair!
4. If you MUST have heels and you just can't stand
platform shoes, opt for a wider heel instead of a pointy one. Also,
go for an open-toe or square-toe shoe. The wider heel and squared-toe
will provide a better foundation for your foot. This is also where
a more expensive pair of shoes might pay off. Typically, designer
shoes are made with more padding and support for the foot than the
cheapies.
5. Break your shoes in! Wear them around the house and
practice dancing in them. Your bridal shoes are going to be like
any other new shoes you've bought during the course of your lifetime.
How many times have you gotten sore feet and blisters the first
time you wore a new pair of shoes? Trust us, your wedding shoes
are NO different!
One other quick tip --- try walking in your shoes on a surface
similar to the aisle you will be walking down. If the soles are
slick, you may want to apply some non-slip pads so you don't fall
on your caboose!
