Luckily, nowadays you have the chance to choose from a large selection of shoes which will help you not to have sore feet.

Improved Comfort

First things first, wedding block heels are comfortable, trendy and stylish. Thanks to the thick heel, they can provide you with the needed support as they can evenly distribute your body mass through both your feet and ankles. That way they reduce any muscle tension and strain, which you cannot obtain from stilettos and other shoes with thinner heels. Thinner heels put way much pressure and stress on your feet, making you uncomfortable and hard to walk, and given the fact that this is your big day and you're supposed to stand all day, you should certainly pick comfort over everything else.

Appealing Models

Even though the heel of these shoes is thicker, it doesn't mean that this compromises their look. They are available not only in different styles, sizes, materials and looks but also in different types. That being said, you can choose form a large selection of wedding shoes with block heels like mules, sandals, sling-back shoes and pumps. Furthermore, they are available in a large selection of styles which makes it extremely easy for you to find the ones that will provide you with all the needed comfort, but also a pair that will meet your dress.

So whether you're planning on having a summer wedding in a restaurant or on the beach, or you want to hold one when the weather is a bit cooler, you should simply browse through the wide range of wedding block shoes and pick the model that will best meet your taste and needs.

Define Your Wedding Gown Style

The first thing you should do as a future bride is to define the style of your wedding dress. For instance, in case your wedding dress has some embellishments with retro vibes, then you can easily pick some retro-style shoes for your wedding.

In case you want to break the chain and choose a shorter dress than the usual long and heavy gowns, you can always make the shoes more statement and eye-catching. Sticking to the white and ivory colour is always a better option, however, to make them more dazzling, you should choose ones that come with some sparkling stones or something similar for added glamour. The one thing to do is to pay more attention to the details of both the shoes and dress to find the perfect match.

Style is important for sure, however, you really shouldn't compromise on comfort. Even though block heels are comfortable in general, still, not all sizes and types of shoes can suit you. Trying different models is paramount to finding the ones that will provide you with the needed comfort to be able to stand the whole day. Otherwise, you risk investing in shoes that you'll need to take off and change them for something comfier.

Try Them at Home

Whether buying them online or offline, trying your bridal shoes at home and walking in them is essential for understanding whether they'll be comfortable enough to help you spend the day in them. So, once you have made your choice and have them at home, try them and walk with them around your home. Check for any faults and if having any, replace them with a new pair. Speaking of which, buying them on time is paramount so you'll have enough time to change and replace them. Unfortunately, sometimes, you may need to buy a completely new pair of shoes, so make sure to buy them on time.

Ideally, it would be best if you shop for such shoes from specialised stores for wedding shoes. Aside from the large selection of shoes in different types, models, designs and accessories, these stores usually have a plethora of many other accessories that you can complement your dress.
