Ladies style: Shoes?
We know picking the perfect pair of shoes for a wedding can feel like finding Cinderella's glass slipper. As we’ll be moving across grass and gravel paths over the weekend, a sturdy block heel or chic wedge will be great.
May showers might pay us a visit, anticipate a sprinkle of dew and opt for leather/patent shoes if possible. If you prefer fabric, consider giving them a quick spray of shoe protector to keep them looking pristine. So, slip into your perfect pair and get ready to dance the night away! ✨ -
