The five things every bride needs to consider before saying 'I do' to her wedding shoes

 
1. Be practical
 
Pick shoes that will complement your dress - bear in mind the colour and cut of your gown, as well as where you will be getting married. Also, bear in mind where you're getting married; if you're planning to exchange vows outside, you run the risk of sinking into the grass. Which, trust us, gets very annoying very quickly (buy some heel cups! These little fella's just clip to be bottom of any heel and provide a wider weight bearing surface to stop you sinking in!). Also, those beautiful but totally impractical shoes you've fallen head-over-heels in love with? Forget them. Hobbling up the aisle is not attractive.
 
2. Give yourself time
 
Don't leave buying your wedding shoes until the last minute. Instead, start browsing early so you have an idea of the kind of heels and flats that you like and keep your eyes peeled for relevant sample sales and offers. Some stores may even let you pay in installments upfront and so spread the cost (WE DO! - ask about PoppyBees Diamonds club).
 
3. Something blue?
 
White is an obvious shade for your wedding shoes - but if you haven't settled on your 'something blue' yet, why not make it your shoes?Often you can find a perfect style for your wedding but not a perfect fit, colour or materials. Dont settle for second best on your big day. Give yourself time to shop around for that elusive, "perfect shoe" (or come to us for the perfect style, colour, material and fitting experience - FIRST TIME!). 
 
4. Just dance
 
Assuming you can walk comfortably in your wedding shoes (always a bonus...), see if you can dance in them. Don't forget to break your shoes in before the big day, too; wear them around your house to get your feet comfortable and familiar with them.
 
5. Finally... Check with your venue
 
It might sound unlikely but seriously - do this! If you're tying the knot in a historic venue, stilettos may be banned in order to keep the ancient wooden floors protected. But that's fine, because there are endless gorgeous pairs of flats and wedges out there for you to get shopping instead!
