How To Choose The Best Shoes For Your Wedding Dress

So, you like to keep things classic. Consider a pair of timeless white pumps or a nude strappy heel that won’t distract from the main event – your dress. If you’re feeling game, a stiletto looks sleek against any dress style (and works just as well with skirts and bridal separates, too). For more stability underfoot, choose a block heel that’ll keep you comfortable all day – and night – long. Can’t decide? Look to Novo, whose collection ticks all the boxes.

Still searching for your ‘something blue’? Blue wedding heels are a fun way to nod to the tradition while also making your bridal look feel fresh. Shades of ice and sky blue are a pretty choice for warm weather weddings, while deep navy satin is an opulent choice for evening and winter nuptials. Labels like Billini and Senso have us seriously convinced that blue is just as good (if not better) than neutral.

If there’s any day to stand out, today’s the day. A statement heel is the perfect partner to a mini or midi wedding dress. Make the most of that shorter hemline with a pair of high-octane gold heels (perfect for Studio 54 vibes), or embellished rhinestone heels for an extra shot of sparkle. More of a minimalist? Take a leaf out of Nicola Peltz-Beckham’s bridal playbook with a pair of white platform heels.

While you might not wear your wedding dress again, thoughtfully chosen wedding shoes will serve you well for countless occasions to come. Beloved by brides everywhere, Loeffler Randall combines meticulous attention to detail (think walkable block heels, buttery leather for comfort…) with the effortless elegance of metallic plisse and pleated chiffon. Feeling extra? A pair of feathered or embellished Kate Spade heels will bring a playful yet polished twist to any outfit – both bridal and beyond.

If you’re not comfortable on your wedding day, it shows – so don’t let your shoes get in the way of a good time. When it comes to flat wedding shoes, the options are endless, so you’re bound to find a style you love. A pair of embellished ballet flats, metallic strappy sandals or box-fresh white sneakers will keep your feet happy, while kitten heels or low mules are perfect if you still want a little height.
