Perfect wedding heels for each bride really depend on many factors. Before you buy your wedding shoes, think through the following things so that you are ready to find your perfect shoes.

1. Your height and your fiance’s height: First and foremost, how tall are you? Are you a smaller, more petite girl that wants to be taller on her wedding day? Or are you quite tall and don’t need the extra height? The other consideration is your fiance’s height relative to yours. Is he much taller than you or is he shorter than you or are you and him around the same height? Depending on how you want the photos to look, you could buy heels that adjust for this. It doesn’t matter what the height difference is, just what you prefer it to be.

2. How comfortable you are in heels: Heels have gotten higher and higher these days, but as women get older, they tend to go higher and then lower. It doesn’t matter what heel height you choose, but you have to make sure you are comfortable in those heels. Can you walk around in them? Can you dance your first dance and the father/daughter dance in them? Can you wear them all day? Your feet are one of the most important things to safeguard since you will be on them all day. Make sure you buy them shoes that they will be happy in.

3. How stable you are in your heels: One of the most important things to know ahead of time is how stable you are in the heel height you choose. Think through what you normally wear and how you feel when you walk around in shoes of different heights. You definitely do not want to trip down the aisle when you first make your beautiful entrance in the gorgeous wedding dress that you’ve chosen. Nor do you want to wobble all the way down the aisle or wobble around on the dance floor. Therefore, unless you are planning to practice a lot in those shoes, make sure you choose heels that you know you can comfortably walk around in. The other option is to look for a thicker heel instead of a stiletto or a wedge heel that provides a very good solid base.

The height of your heels will determine many things on your big day. Most importantly, they will determine the comfort of your feet and therefore of you. Make sure you think through the 3 criteria above before purchasing your wedding heels.
