The right wedding shoes are just as essential as the dress and in many families, they become heirlooms. Wedding shoe trends should be followed in accordance with your personality and what makes you tick, and the shoe should still hold its own 20 years down the line.
According to The Aisle, the following are the top 2022 wedding shoe trends to choose from:
Lace never goes out of style In the spirit of a more timeless option, you cannot go wrong with a classic, lace shoe. Strap pump heels or lace cross heels are the epitome of sophistication and grace and will complement any dress. If you want to keep these forever as a memento, they will be fashionable years from now too.
Block it out A block sandal may not be your first choice as a wedding shoe but think about it – what is better than comfort and elegance rolled into one? A mule block sandal complete with stunning fabric and bridal bows is a shoe of dreams. If you are a tall bride or one that cannot bear high heels for long but still want that extra height to complement the flow of your dress, this type of shoe is the style to go for.
Jewel embellishments and fairy-tale bedazzlement In the spirit of royalty, an encrusted heel is the perfect way to upgrade a simpler wedding dress or if you do not want to wear too much jewellery. The jewels can be anything – from crystals to other gems, but the most elegant combination is to stick with white, gold, or champagne-coloured gems.
White leather pump/peep toe heels Sometimes the best shoe to pair with an elaborate dress is a plain, fine finish white leather pump heel or peep-toe heel. As any self-professed wedding expert will tell you, always shop for the dress first but if you are in a bit of a time crunch or are looking to revamp your mum’s vintage wedding dress, a plain chic leather heel might just be the right fit.
