How Much Did You Spend on Your Shoes?

Alicia, on June 16, 2019 at 7:48 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 3 218
If you're comfortable sharing, how much did you spend on your shoes for the big day? I found a pair that I am absolutely in love with, but they are way more expensive than I even considered spending on shoes. Do I splurge on the pair I love or compromise because they're just shows for just one day? Which was more important to you? Help!

    How long is your dress? If it’s floor length, I wouldn’t splurge on shoes... no one will see them! If you have a shorter dress then splurge away Smiley smile

    Oh and I spent $40 on mine, and literally no one saw them except for my friend who is 7 months pregnant and was rocking 4 inch heels like a freaking pro, and so I showed her my 2 inch ones 😂

    My dress was long so nobody even knew what my shoes looked liked. 😊

    I only spent $30, I think. I just wanted something to give me a bit of height, while still allowing me to walk gracefully and be bridal looking. With a long dress, they won’t be seen much anyways. Maybe a pic or two while getting ready.

    I think I spent maybe $20-$25 at the most from Davids Bridal. I got these because I can wear them again

    Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. They would look amazing in the accessories photo, but with a floor-length dress, they really aren't gonna be seen.

    I spend $100 on my shoes. For me it was about comfort but of course looks. I bought A LOT of shoes and tested them at home after work, before work, during my period to see if I could handle them. Our feet tend to swell up and handle shoes differently. I returned all of them expect this one and I have no regrets mostly because I’ll use it again. For me comfort was the most important aspect so I would have gone higher on the price if need it. It looks is more important to you and you can pay for it then go for it. You’ll reuse the shoes after all.

    Mine were $35 wedge sandals. No one saw them in my wedding dress and I can wear them again.

    I had a floor length dress as well and in some candid pictures you’re able to see my shoes when walking specially if holding the train for pictures.

    It was important for me to pick shoes I’m gonna wear again. So I say go for it especially if you are going to wear them again. I spent $50 on mines.

    I spent $800 on a pair of Christian Louboutins and I do regret it. They are uncomfortable and I couldn’t wear them all night. They did look nice in the pictures but no one else saw them! Because Wedding dresses are usually floor length

    I spent $130 on my Badgley Mischkas on clearance. My dress is long and full so no one is, but I still wanted something special and they’ll be in detail shots. I was originally going to splurge on Louboutin’s, but I compromised since they won't really be seen.

    The ones I'm looking at are $300, but they're flats, so I know comfort won't be an issue. Thanks for sharing your regret, I appreciate the honesty!!

    I was looking at Badgley Mischkas, as well, but the ones that really caught my eye are $300 Bella Belle shoes. I know they won't be seen much, so I can't decide if I want to splurge just as a treat for my sake or be more practical about it. Thanks for sharing!

    I’m spent $175 for my Tieks. I didn’t want to spend a whole lot of money for shoes to wear one day. Plus I can wear them on both of our honeymoons. And everyday wear.

    I originally spent $37 on mine because I couldn’t bring myself to spend $225 on the ones I really wanted. But then I found the ones I really wanted on sale for $90. So I returned the $37 pair and bought the $90 pair. The second pair is much more in line with what I wanted. Plus, the heel is much lower too, so I won’t kill my feet.
