Wedding Shoes: What Will You Wear?

When it comes to your wedding shoes the usual choice is a pair of light coloured heels, but who is to say that is your only option? Many brides are now deciding to wear different style wedding shoes. While a lot of brides are still choosing the traditional light coloured heel, heel heights have become higher and jewels and adornments more stylish then ever! Do you hate wearing heels? Then forget them! Other brides could not bear the thought of walking down the aisle without their 5 inch show stoppers. Go with whatever makes you feel best in!

I have noticed in many real weddings both brides and grooms choosing Converse and Toms as their wedding shows. Some even have them customised to include their initials and their wedding date, how cool is that! A great choice if you are looking for something a little more quirky and personalised. Your wedding theme could also determine your choice of wedding shoe. Are you hosting a rustic ranch wedding? Then get out your cowboy boots! Yes I am serious. I’ve seen many real weddings in which the brides and bridesmaids have chosen to wear cowboy boots with their gowns. Even if just for the camera, do this and you will create some fantastic wedding photos! If you are celebrating your wedding abroad you might even decide to go barefoot to the ceremony on the beach.

One of the most popular wedding shoe trend at the moment is a bright coloured shoe, like red, hot pink or blue! A coloured shoe looks fabulous worn with a tea length wedding dress as you really get a chance to show them off! You then have the choice whether you want to wear heels, ballet flats or even those customised Toms! Just one tip, if you do wear the 5inch heels make sure you bring some kind of flats to the reception. A quick change later on in the night will ensure you can keep dancing all night long!
