Once you say "yes," the flurry of wedding planning begins. The dress, the florals, the décor... But what about the bridal shoes? They deserve just as much attention as your gown! Before you settle on a heel, color, or style, remember this: start with yourself. Your personal style should be the foundation of this crucial choice.
Shoes or dress first? Making the decision
If you’ve already secured your dream dress, your shoes should act as the perfect complement, balancing the overall silhouette. If, however, you’re still browsing gown designs, start with the shoes that best represent your personality. Believe it or not, the right pair can inspire the entire vision for your wedding day.

The ultimate question: heels or flats?
The simple answer is comfort and confidence. Think about your venue and how long you’ll be on your feet. Indoor, evening ceremonies are perfect for sleek stilettos or classic block heels. For daytime or destination weddings (like a beach or countryside setting), stable platform heels or wide block heels are a smarter choice. If heels aren't your thing, a stylish flat sandal or chic Mary-Jane can be equally stunning.
Beyond white: a pop of color
While ivory and white are staples, feel free to play with rich gold, subtle silver, or soft pastels. And don't forget a touch of blue in your shoes for that classic "something blue" tradition!
