UNCOMFORTABLE BRIDAL SHOES CAN RUIN YOUR BIG DAY





Some brides are not aware that there is a factor more important than style when it comes to choosing bridal shoes. They do not realize this until their big day comes and they can hardly walk because of the pain their uncomfortable shoes are giving them.

It is true that comfort is not something that many brides consider when shopping for a pair of bridal shoes but this is definitely important and should never be overlooked. After all, if a bride is going to wear a long gown, nobody will see how beautiful or stunning her shoes are but the comfort it will give her is priceless.

These bits and pieces of information will help you have a comfortable pair to wear during your special day.

Comfort is King.

Make sure you keep this in mind when shopping for shoes. This means that you should never buy shoes without fitting them. Try on different pairs and try walking while wearing each pair. If you feel a pair is making it hard for you to walk in a gracious manner, skip this, and go on to the next one. Never buy bridal shoes without fitting them even though the shoes are the same size as your feet.

To Heel or Not to Heel

When picking a heel height, choose the one that you typically wear on a daily basis. Going for a higher heel may mean discomfort during your special day. Now, if you are not a high heels girl, ditch the heels, go for flats or lower heels that can look just as elegant. You can also opt to wear shoes with wide, broad, or wedge heels that are more comfortable than stiletto heels. Just make sure that your wedding gown complements your choice of pair.

Comfort = Confidence

Being comfortable is also about being confident. If you are not confident about your shoe choice, you would probably not feel comfortable either. For example, if you dislike showing off your toes, then stay away from open-toe shoes.

High Quality: Always a Priority

If you are looking for comfort, your best bet is to rely on high quality brands made of top quality materials such as silk, satin, or leather which are usually easy on the feet. Just do not forget that the fabric and texture of your shoes should match or complement that of your wedding gown.


Break them in!

No matter how busy you are, never wait until the big day before you wear the shoes. Wear them a couple of weeks before the wedding. Strut them around the house everyday for one to two hours to break them in.

If you want to ruin your big special day, the best way to do is to don a pair of uncomfortable bridal shoes that will give you sore toes, painful soles and make you unable to walk graciously down the aisle. Otherwise, make sure you exert extra time and effort in finding shoes that are not only beautiful and stylish but also comfortable.
