Shoes!!

[SHeeMz]

Hi BDW brides,

 

This might sound like a stupid question, but what kind of shoes are you supposed to wear to a beach wedding? I'm guessing the heals would just sink right in. So, any suggestions? For brides and bridesmaids..

 

Pictures would really be helpful, if possible.

I was going to wear flats and my MIL custom made me a gorgeous pair. However, at the last minute (literally about 30 mins. before I walked down the aisle) us gals decided to go barefoot. Personally, I think it was so cute to have everyones toes bare and it was exceptionally comfortable. It's the quintessential beach wedding that way too, you know what I mean? 

 

The shoes I didn't wear: 

 

Here is a picture of my piggies:

What cute shoes!! Barefoot, huh? I've read that on a few sites, but find it a bit odd to not wear shoes to my own wedding.. but hey, that's one cost that we could save on! Barefoot sandals look pretty cute, too..

My girls and I actually felt pretty unstable (even though we had flats) on the sand- so it just made sense for us. I'm actually more comfortable in bare feet anyway. It really felt great though- and many our our guests took our lead and kicked off their shoes too- many of which made specific comments to me that it was fabulous that they didn't have to wear their shoes! 

 

If I were to do it again, I'd go the foot jewelery (aka bare foot sandals) as I think it's such a cute way to dress up your feet for a beach wedding They are surprisingly expensive. I guess it's not worse than a pair of shoes though.

I'm definitely going barefoot for the ceremony...toes in the sand is part of the fun of beach wedding!  I've heard horror stories about heels on the beach, so if you feel like you want to wear shoes, i'd definitely recommend flats.

barefoot or flats are prob best, and then nice shoes for the reception.

This may be a silly question... Wouldn't your wedding dress be too short if you changed into heels for the reception? or too long during the ceremony?
