Our Favorite Pairs of Wedding Shoes for Summer Brides

Getting married this summer? Then congratulations are in order—not only are you marrying the love of your life, but you're nearing the finish line in terms of wedding planning. By now you've selected your wedding dress, so it's time to find the accessories that will tie your entire look together. Our favorite place to start? With your shoes. The summer calls for fun, lightweight styles in whites, metallics, or pale colors that will complement your gown and add the perfect summery touch to your entire look. While you can choose just about anything you like, we suggest looking out for some seasonal staples: chic gold T-strap sandals, pale blue mules, pink strappy heels, silver slides—and, of course, the ever-classic white stilettos. 

If your wedding will take place outside, you'll want to think about your footwear a little differently. When it's not a black-tie wedding, and especially when your celebration is taking place in the grass or sand, sturdy, comfortable shoes are a better fit. Go with something quintessentially associated with the season—linen covered ankle-strap sandals, mules with crochet or woven cut-out details (which will also keep your feet cool), or shoes with wooden heels, which will add a natural, outdoorsy element to your day-of look. Of course, you can always wear a simple pair of classic ballet flats that will look chic and be comfortable through hours of dancing.

Whatever you choose, the options are plentiful. Here, we've rounded up some of our favorite wedding shoes that would be perfect to wear for summer nuptials.
