Everyone wants to look their best at a wedding. Whether you are the bride, part of the wedding party, family or a guest, you don’t want to sacrifice comfort for the perfect look. Follow the five steps below to be sure you have style and comfort:
1) Break ‘Em In: You should start wearing your wedding shoes at least two weeks before the big day. Get comfortable in them by walking around the house for several minutes a day and increasing the time you wear them each day. You’ll want to be comfortable in your wedding shoes for 4-5 hours.
2) Scuff ‘Em up: New shoes and dance floors floors don’t mix! Many ceremony locations can have slick floors and/or stairs as well. Save yourself the embarrassment of a fall by scraping the bottoms on a curb or by using a piece of steel wool.
3) Add Comfort: Protect against blisters with inserts from Dr. Scholl’s or Superfeet. Guys — this could be as simple as wearing thicker socks for you. Tuxedo socks are often very thin and rental shoes can be brutal on your feet.
4) Add Function: Ladies, modify your heels with SoleMates for an outdoor wedding. They even offer discounts to wedding parties!
5) Have a Backup: Bring a pair of comfortable flats or flip flops if you need a change during the reception.
