Wedge Sandals are the Best Shoes for Outdoor Weddings!

If you are having an outdoor wedding -- where you will be walking on grass or otherwise porous material -- if your wedding dance floor in an outdoor tent has little mesh drainage holes in it, if you are at all uncomfortable or wobbly in a stiletto heel, or if you want to get through the day without aching feet - a wedge wedding shoe might be the perfect choice for you!

Why Wear Wedge Sandals for Your Wedding?

For my own wedding, I decided on the wedge sandal pretty early on in the shoe purchasing process.

I'll be honest, at first I wasn't thrilled with wearing a wedge, since aesthetically I love the lean look of a thin strappy heel.

However, I was supposed to be getting married outside (It rained, so I didn't, but I was in a tent with a rubber mesh floor so the wedges were still a lifesaver!) and I knew I didn't want to contend with heels into the grass. I'm also not always sure-footed in heels, and I could imagine that wear a big dress, veil, and other moving parts, a thing heel would be just one more thing to worry about. It was also before theses little wonders - Solemates High Heelers - were invented, which are a great product that I wear now, and a great alternative if you need to wear heels in firm grass. I have worn them several times with no issues, but if the grass is really, really soft and wet, your heels will still sink. That happened at my last wedding and I lost the High Heeler, but I'll definitely be re-purchasing! They are just great for a little more stability even on dry land!

Wedges Are Comfortable Wedding Shoes!

So, back to wedges! As I was trying on heels and wedges, it also became really clear that wedges were just so much more comfortable, supportive, and stable than other heels. Aesthetically, I soon grew to love them as well. My gown was floor-length, and so if my shoes peeked out at all, they just looked like regular ivory satin wedding shoes, no one was the wiser that I was wearing comfortable wedges! They also actually made my size 10 feet look smaller somehow, because of the high angle of the wedge.

Picking the Perfect Wedge Sandal

If you're nodding your head in sympathy or agreement to any of these shoe comfort condundrums I'm mentioning, definitely give a wedge a try!

If you are still sure you don't want to wear wedges, there is another option; I've got my eye on some block heels for weddings like these for an upcoming post!
