Bride's Shoes

Choosing the right shoe is almost as important as choosing the right dress. You will be standing, dancing, and walking in the choice pair of shoes for hours and hours and if you buy for looks and not comfort, you will be paying for it the entire day/night (and probably the next few days after). This problem is totally avoidable.

Don't go to the department stores.

Don't go to Payless Shoe Stores (they have a special bridal shoe collection).

Don't go to the designer shoe stores in the mall.

DO go to your local ballroom dancing studio or search the web for ballroom shoes.

These shoes are made for long hours, hard work and they are totally affordable. There are some with bling on the buckle or the toe. Some are plain, yet fashionable. If you can't find the color of your choice, take them to a shoe repair that dyes shoes. Bring in a sample of your dress and they will match it to the exact hue.

You will be so grateful for these shoes that you won't even think about them until the next day when you realize that your feet don't hurt!
