Whether you are opting for a traditional or a less formal event then most important components of your wedding day wardrobe will be the footwear you choose to wear.
It’s worth taking some time over selecting your wedding shoes as not only must they compliment your chosen outfit and look spectacular, they must also be functional and, above all, comfortable! You will be on your feet for much of the day and it’s therefore very important that you find a shoe with a good fit.
Once you find the perfect pair of shoes you will probably want to keep them in pristine condition for the big day. Whilst this is understandable it’s also a good idea to wear your shoes as often as possible before the wedding to ensure you get the most comfort on the day itself.
To stop your shoes becoming scuffed while you ‘break them in’ ensure that you only wear them indoors and use an old sock as an outer covering (it may look a bit odd but will stop them from getting marked). For leather shoes, apply a little neutral colour shoe cream as soon as you get them. This will help to soften the leather and it’s a good idea to repeat a couple of times before the day.
