This year’s brides are stepping away from traditional white or ivory heels, and stepping into brighter, more trendy shoes that let their personalities shine. Instead of buying a pair of boring heels they’ll never wear again, brides are purchasing shoes they’ll wear long after their wedding day.
Wedding Shoe Trend #1 :: Bright Heels
Brides have been wearing blue heels as their ’something blue’ for a few seasons now. Now, brides who are looking to add a fun pop of color to their ensemble are wearing shoes in a wide array of bright colors. Hot pink, yellow, purple, you name it… It’s a great way to add a surprising peek of color under your layers of tulle. And, it’s a great way to incorporate your wedding palette into your bridal attire.
Wedding Shoe Trend #2 :: Vintage Style
This wedding season many brides will walk down the aisle donning vintage dresses. In order to carry off this classy look, most modern styles just won’t work. This is why vintage styled wedding shoes have become very popular this season.
Wedding Shoe Trend #3 :: Sandals
As destination weddings become more popular, many brides will take their vows on a sandy beach. Have you ever tried wearing heels on the beach? Yeah, it’s pretty much impossible. For brides not wanting to walk barefoot, unique sandals make a great alternative and allow you to indulge in the perfect shoe.
Wedding Shoe Trend #4 :: Embellished Shoes
Another popular trend this season is embellished shoes. Shoes adorned with flowers, feathers, or jewels are spunky, sassy and still classy. These shoes are so fun, you’ll want to wear them even after your wedding day.
Wedding Shoe Trend #5 :: Designer
What better time to splurge on a pair of designer shoes than on the most memorable day of your life? Many brides are looking to top designers when shopping for their wedding shoes. Your shoes will be photographed so many times on your wedding day, it’s worth it to find a pair worth showing off. And, you’ll have a fantastic pair of shoes to wear after the wedding as well.
With these five trends, there’s something for everyone. Choosing a pair of shoes that matches your personality and the overall feel of your wedding can be one of the funnest tasks on your wedding to-do list.
