    Highly recommend my ivory irregular choice wedding shoe boots. So so comfortable and looked fabulous! Bought them in schuh for around 100 euro. Will definitely wear them again!

    I wish I'd known about Irregular Choice before I got married. I've bought 4 pairs of shoes and boots since. I would have loved to have worn their wedding Meeow boots, but I've bought them in black since. So unusual but so comfy!

    I'm planning on getting the Kiara ones. :)
    I've read that they can run a bit small though so I think I'm going to order a half size up (I have slightly broad feet).

    How are you ladies ordering shoes from Badgley Mischka? I prefer Kiara and have my eye on Thora - http://www.badgleymischka.com/THORA/

    Pink/navy

    They have the option of international shipping on their website but shipping and taxes came to about €150 when I checked. However one of my bridesmaids lives in Boston so I'm getting them delivered to her, and she's kindly bringing them over when she's home for Christmas 😊

    ^Mine were lk bennett gold sandals. I wore them lots on the honeymoon.
    After extensive shopping I got these:
    http://www.lkbennett.com/Collections/Shoes/Court-Shoes/Minu-Glitter-Knit-Court/p/SCMINUGLITTERKNITGoldSoft%20Gold?show=All

    Not cheap but not 350 either. I've even worn them a few times since. They work well as a neutral going out shoe and the kitten heel made them very comfy. There are variations too - higher heels and rounder toes.


    I wore a pair of LK Bennett patent nude heels. I think they were the Shiloh ones. They were a great purchase and were great to wear for the day. My feet didn't give up until 5am on the night/morning of my wedding.
    I've since purchased them in navy and black too.

    I wore Starry Eyed from Rainbow Club, I adore them!!

    7ebee96d254b282b0dbc2b7f6798dedc.jpg

    I had a tea length dress so I knew I wanted something flashy and relatively high. I had wedding converse to change into for dancing but I lasted longer in the heels than I anticipated. They were surprisingly comfortable for their height and I'm definitely going to wear them again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 902 ✭✭✭lainey316


    Planning to wear LKB Shilos also, ones I already have (a neutral snakeskin) since the Shilo is discontinued and the Stila (replacement) is only about 5% differnet but does not suit me at all. Annoying. Some of the wedding shoes are so pretty tho! I am tempted...


  • Registered Users Posts: 89 ✭✭SecretBride


    Mine arrived today.....I totally LOVE them!! Not great pics but here they are :-)

    Anyone have a recommendation for comfortable wedges? They have to be high as i dont want my dress dragging on the dance floor.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,000 ✭✭✭andreac


    Loving the rainbow club website. I've seen a few pairs that could be runners for me. Does anyone know if house of fraser has them in Dundrum? Would love to try a few on.


  • Registered Users Posts: 89 ✭✭SecretBride


    If anyone is ordering online, can I recommend Next!

    They were fab with my wedding shoes....ordered a pair on Sunday night, got them Monday lunchtime but got a 7 that were too big so I double checked and Next do half sizes (I'm a 6.5!) Went back online and ordered a 6.5 and 18 hours later I have them on my feet!!

    I can return the 7 to a store in the next couple of weeks. Fab service and free delivery too!!

    I got shoes from the Pink Paradox range. Very weddingy but they suited my dress very well and as I have dodgy feet I needed comfortable shoes that wouldn't fall off. (I can't wear slip on high heels - my shoes need to have a strap or laces!) This is one of the ranges that can be dyed to suit a dress. Kind of like the Rainbow Club ones. I found them very comfortable. The Rainbow Club ones weren't bad either. Think my shoes were around €100. Maybe a bit more.

    As regards the wedding shoe ranges I found that most shops in Dublin either don't stock them at all or stock a very limited range. So they might have the shoe you like but not your size. So it's hard to make a decision. Debenhams was probably the shop with the best range in the shop itself, rather than having to try on shoes that were two sizes too big and trying to imagine what they would be like if they were the correct size. Cinders also had a decent range. Most shops I visited seemed to have given up on stocking wedding shoes as they weren't selling for them.

    I ended up buying mine online. They weren't perfect, but with an insole or two they were really comfy on the day.

    Good luck to all with the shoe shopping!

    Not sure if these are high enough for you (8.5 cm) but they are the shoes I wore and were pretty comfortable

    I wore a pair od Dune wedges for dancind. THey were half an inch higher than my wedding shoes so the dress was off the floor for dancing. i wore these http://www.lyst.com/shoes/dune-giddy-d-slingback-wedge-sandals-nude-2/

    Dune have a good range of neutral wedges http://www.dunelondon.com/en-ie/ladies-wedge-sandals-dept3004/#filterkey=colour&colour=neutral

    I haven't seen them in there. I had rainbow club also for my wedding, but they were bought from the store where I got my dress, I saw my shoe in the display cabinet, and knew it was for me (a converse style with ribbons for laces) the dying service is great, they matched my dress exactly, and same with the bridesmaids :)

    Here's their stockist map for Ireland http://www.rainbowclub.co.uk/stockists

    Thanks for your input :) I like the Pia alot too! I will try them on. I am in two minds actually about them or Jimmy Choos! I love them.. and I tried on a few pairs but I was worried about the sole being suede.. & them getting ruined easily.. How did you find they wore?? Which ones did you buy? :D

    I ended up getting some on asos that were Steve Madden. Painful but very pretty. I bought a pair of ruby shoo for my hen and I wear them constantly. So comfortable


  • Registered Users Posts: 794 ✭✭✭Lima Golf


    I ordered these from Amazon. £27 quality is good and they're comfortable

    Hope I'm not too late to get in on the "voting" action here, but Shoe 3 (PIA) all the way in my opinion!

    They're so classic and the strap on the ankle will give a bit of stability. I think some of the platforms might date, bit the stiletto options are more timeless.

    No. 2 for me


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 99 ✭✭ThatGeekGirl


    I am a bit lost when it comes to my wedding shoes, maybe some of you could give me your thoughts;
    I am a size 10 (ugh I know) so usually I wear runners/cons on a daily basis. I am planning on wearing flats for my wedding day because I want to be comfy and I am having a full length dress so chances are the shoes wont be seen all that much. The dress will be ivory so my thoughts so far have been a) somehow track down ivory flats in my size b) wear white/ivory runner like shoes with ribbons for laces or c) wear very obvious statement shoes in a design such as batman comic fabric or green (to match the bridesmaids' dresses). Btw, very envious of all your choices so far haha :P


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,609 ✭✭✭irishgirl19


    Thatgeekgirl I have seen size 10 wedding shoes on debenhams online. Pink by paradox do them I think.
    Good sale on bridal shoes at the moment.

    What about TOMS? some of their styles are quite nice e.g. http://www.toms.co.uk/women/natural-woven-rope-sole-womens-classics

    Does nobody get shoes covered anymore? Use shoes that you already own and are broken in. Have them covered professionally in the dress material or whatever takes your fancy. End result: comfy shoes exactly matching your dress.

    I did that. I'd a pair I loved that I wore to weddings. I could easily last the night in them and they were comfy. There about 8 years old, worn on my wedding day four years ago and to every wedding I've been too in the last eight years. I go to about four weddings a year and they've been recovered or dyed numerous times for a tenner each time.
