Selecting Bridal Shoes

Bridal shoes can be detailed to match your wedding gown with pearls, beading, embroidery, etc. or simply styled to complement an elaborately detailed dress. Very detailed shoes work best with a simple dress, with minimal or no detailing. When selecting a heel height, choose a style that is similar to what you normally wear to ensure you'll be comfortable throughout your wedding day.

Bridal Shoe Fabric Guide

Satin, crepe, and silk are popular fabrics used for bridal shoes. Your bridal shoe fabric should complement the color and material of the lower part of your wedding dress. Satin and crepe shoes work well with most fabrics that have either a matte or shiney sheen. For outdoor weddings, choose fabrics that do not tear or stain easily. Ask a bridal shop or shoe repair store if they can tone down a stark white shoe to match a diamond white or off white gown.

Bridal Shoe Heel Height

It's important to decide on the heel height of your wedding shoes before having any alterations done to your wedding gown's length. Take your bridal shoes with you for any dress fittings to ensure the hem length of your gown is measured correctly. If you do not have your wedding shoes ready by the time you go for your dress fitting, wear any pair of shoes that have the same heel height as your bridal shoes will have. Any last minute changes in bridal shoes that have lower or higher heels than your dress was measured with, will leave you with a gown that is either too short or too long.
