    A favorite online shoe store for wedding shoes is myglassslipper.com. Here you will find shoes for the bride, bridesmaid and mother of the bride within every budget.

  3. Step 3

    After you’ve done your online shopping for bridal shoes, its time to move on to the retail stores.

    Saks Fifth Avenue has an extensive designer shoe department and they have a gorgeous clearance shoe department. While shoe sizes and selections will be limited in the clearance department, this author found her Vera Wang shoes at 50% off!

    Nordstrom, Bloomingdales and Macys are also very good places to shop for bridal shoes.

Tips & Warnings
  • Consider buying two pairs of shoes. One pair you absolutely love to wear down the isle and for for pictures. The other pair for dancing when you feet are tired. Some women choose fancy tennis shoes or flip flops and other women just chose a more comfortable plain shoe. If your feet swell during a long day on your feet, you may find more comfort in a shoe that is 1/2 a size bigger or a wider width.
