{1} “I ended up buying this pair of shoes because they were unique and the heels were pretty high, which worked well with my long dress.”

{2} “I did a search online and I saw this pair on piperlime.com. I immediately loved them, and so did my family and friends—many of them took close-up pictures of my shoes.”

{3} “Unlike many other brides, I didn’t care a lot about my shoes. I knew they would be hidden underneath the dress, so I was looking for something inexpensive.”

{4} “I wanted to wear something a little less traditional and more fun; something not many people would wear at their wedding. I love the fact that I can wear them again, with a black cocktail dress, for example.”

{5} “I was looking for something really feminine, and I tried on probably 10 other pairs before finding this one at DSW. I actually wear them with jeans sometimes.”

{6} “I love tropical colors—ocean blue in particular. After searching online for a while, I found this pair on zappos.com, and
I loved it.”

{7} “I was shopping for silver shoes, and one day I ran into a pair that was a cheap version of Manolo Blahnik. The original costs over $700, and I paid only $100.”
{8} “I liked pairs by Christian Louboutin and other designers, but they were too expensive. I started looking in stores and saw this pair that was just perfect. They looked like they should be expensive, but weren’t.”

{9} “I saw a picture of a bride in the same dress I’d picked for myself, with pretty shoes on. They were this nice salmon color. I already had a white pair of shoes from Priscilla of Boston, so I had them dyed at Kenny’s Shoe & Leather Repair in Bloomington.”

{10} “I actually chose my shoes first, before choosing the dress. I’m a shoe person, and when I saw them in Neiman Marcus, I immediately loved them. I planned my entire outfit around this pair.”

{11} “When I saw these shoes in DSW, I knew they were the one. They tied into my vintage look and made me different than the ‘cookie-cutter’ bride.’”
- Stephanie Mullery, shoes from DSW (Photography by Red Ribbon Studio)
{12} “When I saw them, I went, ‘Oh my God.’ I loved the heel, the open toe, and the color. But I didn’t buy them because I’d already chosen another pair. I kept thinking about them though, and a week later I went back and bought them. I still wear them once a week to work.”

{13} “I wanted to wear something different so I chose orange, my favorite color. I went to Bridal Accents Couture, tried this pair on and immediately loved it.”
