Wedding shoes are just as crucial as the million other wardrobe considerations running through your mind on your big day. In the midst of the frenzy that is wedding planning, it might be easy to overlook the one thing you’re going to spend hours on end standing—and dancing—in.
As bridalwear continues to loosen its ties to tradition, comfortable options for wedding shoes are increasingly par for the course. If walkability is a key priority, look to pearl-embellished or embroidered low heels that promise elegance. For adventurers-at-heart, let festivity be your guide—feathers, diamond-encrusted, and sculptural heels are at your service. Or if you’re a sentimental soul looking to hand down your wedding shoes as a sartorial heirloom, consider more timeless styles that work with any silhouette. Metallic, barely-there strappies are a classic for a reason.
