Can You Wear Flats on Your Wedding Day? Here's What the Expert Says

Just because a shoe is flat doesn't mean it's not worthy of being worn for your walk down the aisle. In fact, there are plenty of heel-free formal shoes that do just as good of a job completing your big-day look as their towering counterparts. So, whether you loathe discomfort of high heels, don't want to look any taller, or simply want to make sure you're comfortably able to spend the night on the dance floor, we've found some stunning wedding-worthy flats that will make you look like a bride, and feel great from morning to night.

Flats are versatile, comfortable, and allow you to make the most of your big day—and there are plenty of ways to wear them with your wedding dress. You can go full glam with a glittery design like Christian Louboutin's gem-dotted ballerinas or Jimmy Choo's pointy-toe ombré glitter flat. Crystals, too, are a stunning embellishment, and several designers have that look on lock. But there are more classic options out there as well: You can opt for a ladylike slingback—try Aquazzura's or Dior's—or feminine ballerina (Roger Vivier has a gorgeous blush option!). You're not limited to white either—a pop of color on the shoe is a great way to up your accessories game, with colorful and metallic options from designers like Manolo Blahnik, Balenciaga, and Chloé. And one final PSA: Flat doesn't necessarily translate to a one-shape-fits all philosophy. Try an on-trend mule, a strappy sandal, or even a loafer if you so desire.
