Don\u2019t go shopping for your wedding shoes without reading this post first! In this post I will share with you tips on buying the perfect wedding shoes. The first tip is regarding timing. In other words where it should appear on your wedding checklist. You should purchase your wedding shoes after you purchased your dress. Even if you think you found the shoes of your dreams\u2014wait. Or, at least make sure that they are returnable and that you keep the receipt with the shoes.<\/h3>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/jeffkolodny.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/02Shoe.jpg\")

A made-to-order wedding dresses typically take about 6-9 months to create. Don\u2019t forget that it may take some time to find the One. Plus you\u2019ll will need three perfectly timed fittings.

Jeff, Often I find myself laying flat on the floor to get the perfect shoe shot!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nWhy?<\/h2>\nOnce you have selected the dress, you\u2019ll know the characteristics your shoes should have in order to complement the dress. Plus the length of the dress will also determine the role of the shoes. If you chose a shorter dress, then your shoes can serve as a statement accessory. They could add color, glitz, glam, or whatever you feel would help complete the look. If you chose a dress that is on the longer side, then your shoes can serve as a supporting role. You might opt for a more comfortable shoes or you might decide how perfectly they match to be less important.<\/h3>\nTip three is make sure to bring a picture of the dress and a fabric swatch when you go shopping. This will help speed up the selection process. It will also make it easier for the salesperson to bring out shoes that suit your style.<\/h3>\nAllowing enough time to test shoe comfort is tip four.<\/strong>On your wedding day you\u2019ll be on your feet for a long time. This is why it is important to allow time to pursue options if you found the shoes uncomfortable. Option one is experimenting with inserts to see if they will remedy the issue.
