1. Buy Wedding dress
   
   Buy your wedding dress before you go out to shop for wedding shoes as your wedding shoes must compliment your bridal dress.

2. Search the net
   
   Do some research on the net to know what is in vogue nowadays. Get familiar with the style and design of the shoes which will go best with your bridal dress.

3. Know where to search
   
   Now check out where you can get the shoes you are looking for. If you want designer shoes, then there are various designer bridal shops which apart from storing designer wedding dresses also store designer bridal shoes. At all these bridal shops you can find wedding shoes of different brands such as Dyeables, Colorful Creations, Coloriffics, Saugus Shoe, etc.

4. Fix a day
   
   Note down the addresses properly and fix a day with plenty of time in hand to go shopping for your shoes.

5. Take a companion
   
   Ask any of your friend or family members to go along with you on your shoe buying trip.

6. Look for comfort
   
   First thing that you need to keep in mind while buying your wedding shoes is the comfort level. You would be walking down the aisle, posing for photographs, dancing, and so on. Hence, buy comfortable shoes so that you can perform all these activities without your new shoes pinching or hurting you.

7. Heels of Wedding Shoes
   
   Choosing the right heels for the occasion is very important. If you are not comfortable in high heels then don’t experiment with it them on your wedding day. Instead you can go for a lovely pair of flat, satin ballet slippers.

8. Color
   
   Take a swatch of your wedding dress along when you go out to buy shoes. Wedding shoes come in different shades of white, so match it with your dress color. In case the shoes don’t match with your dress, you can even get them dyed.

9. Wedding Shoe Fabric
   
   Some of the most preferred fabrics are silk, velvet, lace and satin as they look more feminine. Other most used styles include crepe and raw silk shoes.

10. Wedding Shoes to Suit Your Style
    
    Your wedding shoes should match your dress and at the same time they should reflect your own personal style. A trendy bride can go for sexy, sleek stilettos whereas brides preferring the traditional touch can opt for low or flat heeled shoes.

Tips & Warnings

• 1. Buy your shoes well before your first wedding dress fitting. This would ensure that your bridal dress is altered for length according to the heel of the shoes. 2. If your height is close to your groom, then stick to low or flat heeled shoes. 3. Make sure that the wedding shoes match with the style and color of your wedding dress. 4. Take the swatch of your wedding dress when shopping for the wedding dress. 5. Buy from the reputed bridal shops which store wedding shoes by different brands.
