Your wedding shoes and wedding dress may both be perfect, but they still may not be perfect together. Here are some tips for insuring that your wedding shoes are a perfect match for the wedding dress you'll be wearing on the big day.

The Right Shoes for Your Wedding

Obviously, the type of wedding you're having will affect your wedding dress, and it should play a role in your wedding shoes as well. An evening wedding and a glamorous gown will open the door for strappy evening sandals, while a city hall or pantsuit wedding would be a fantastic excuse to break out beaded mules as your bridal shoes.

Styles That Will Complement Your Dress

Fancy shoes for a simple dress; or simple shoes with an elaborate gown. This rule of thumb can help take some of the confusion out of finding the right bridal shoes. By eliminating the need to match embellishments and detailing, the perfect match is more easily attained.

Details and Embellishments

If you do choose both shoes and a dress with embellishments, the details should coordinate. For example, rhinestone or crystals on your shoes will go well with bejeweled or shiny, sequined dresses; while beaded shoes will work nicely with pearled dresses.
