How To Find Your Perfect Wedding Shoes
3/25/2022
Roses are red, violets are blue, which shoe will you be wearing when you say I do?
We have curated our favourite bridal shoes to make your special day a little easier (and comfortable!).
Selecting your bridal shoes may be the biggest decision you will make in the lead-up to your big day. Finding the perfect wedding shoes that match your dress, make you feel confident walking down the aisle, and just straight-up love to wear over and over again, can be tricky. But that’s where we come in!
All our heels, high, low, and in-between, have in-built support and cushioning that has been designed by a podiatrist. Our (crazy comfy!) footbed provides maximum support while you feel like you're walking on a cloud. Each consciously-curved bump is designed to improve leg alignment and aid foot function, our bridal shoes will have you feeling supported all day and night long.
You may have noticed all our heels feature a delicate ankle strap, while it looks the part, it actually helps lock your feet in place and provide extra support. Your toes aren't designed to bear the weight of your shoes and that's where these leather ankle straps come in. By offloading forefoot pressure, you can dance the night away without overusing muscles and tendons in your feet. Safe to say, we’re not here for dreaded toe clawing on your special day!
So what’s the perfect style for you?
Decisions, decisions! Let’s consider a few options to start - low or high heel, closed or open toe, leather or satin, classic or trend-focused. We’re going to be honest, there are a lot of elements to consider. We suggest trying on a few styles to find the perfect shoe that matches your dress, style and most importantly, feels comfy on your feet.
Most of the time, it’s not the first shoe you fall in love with that ends up on your feet on your wedding day. If you’re buying online we can send you extra options to try, otherwise head in-store for a customised fitting experience with one of our amazing shoe experts.
