Wedding shoes need to look photo-ready and hold up through hours of standing, walking, and dancing. The Shoe Co.'s bridal shoes collection covers block heels, flats, and pearl-embellished styles for the ceremony and the reception. Classic white bridal shoes pair well with a simple A-line gown, while a textured statement heel suits a bridal looking for a statement moment or dresses with intricate detailing. Browse by heel height, colour, and detail, from ivory satin pumps to embellished flats, and be sure to shop the formal accessories to finish off your wedding attire.
Block Heels, Lace, and Pearl Details: The Styles Brides Are Choosing
Bridal shoes with pearls are having a moment, showing up on strappy sandals, pointed-toe pumps, and ankle straps alike. Badgley Mischka, Kelly and Katie, Steve Madden are just some of the brands you know and love that make detailed bridal shoes as well as simple white pumps to walk you down the aisle on your big day. Bridal shoes with a block heel add height without the wobble of a stiletto on grass, cobblestone, or a slick dance floor. You can shop block heel options in ivory, champagne, and blush. Platform and strappy heels are also popular choices for wedding day shoes as they add height and dimension to any dress choice.
Since white bridal shoes in satin and lace often run narrow, be sure to check width options before the final fitting. We carry a collection of bridal flats as a low or no-heel alternative for brides who want comfort over height, or want a shoe change for the reception.
Choosing the Perfect Bridal Shoes
Canadian weddings span from early spring and fall outdoor ceremonies to a winter ballroom reception, and the shoe should match the season. A garden ceremony calls for a stable base, a hotel ballroom allows for a higher heel, and warmer months will allow for open toe silhouettes, while fall and winter might call for a closed toe pump. Outdoor summer weddings favour a bridal shoe with a block heel and a wider base that won't sink into soft ground. Indoor winter weddings allow brides to wear more intricate detailing like white lace or fabric that can easily stain since there's no grass or gravel underfoot. Many brides pick their top bridal shoes based on the reception floor, since hardwood and tile call for a different heel than grass. The Shoe Co.

FAQs
What's the best type of wedding shoe for dancing all night? A block heel or wedge holds up best over hours on the dance floor, since it distributes weight more evenly than a stiletto.
Should bridal shoes match the exact shade of my dress? It depends on your preference. But, ivory, off-white, and true white all work as long as the shoe tone complements the gown fabric.
Are white lace bridal shoes true to size? Lace and satin styles tend to run narrow. Check the width chart and size up if you're wearing tights or inserts.
