Best wedding dance shoes for the bride

Last updated June 14, 2021

Wedding is one of the best moments in life. We buy the most beautiful dress, shoes, jewelries and everything else. We plan and practice the wedding dance many month ahead. But what about shoes?

The most beautiful shoes have typically high heels. Not all of us can wear them without pain for hours and least of it dance through the night. Bridal dancing shoes should be both beautiful and comfortable.

We have made the research for you and have chosen the best dance shoes for the wedding this year. There are both flats, heels and professional dance shoes included for you to consider.

Professional dance shoes

Many dance shoes look very pretty and it can be tempting to wear them for the wedding. In this case take a closer look at the sole of the shoe you choose. Professional dance shoes have often suede soles that are very soft and smooth and let you spin easy on the ballroom floor. They are not suitable to wear outside and will be damaged quickly. If you are choosing dance shoes either change them inside just before the dance or buy the shoes with rubber or hard leather soles.

These two pairs of professional dance shoes with suede soles in our table:

Shoe inserts

If you are not wearing heels often, the ball joints of your feet may get hurt eventually. There are some inserts that are suitable even for sandals that will make the toe part of a shoe more padded and the shoe more comfortable.

  • Heel grips or shoe pads. They are good if you have too narrow heels or the shoe is flipping off your foot when you walk.
    Amazon
  • Forfoot cushion pads. These are good for close-toe pumps if the shoe is a little bit large. They give some extra cushion to the ball of the foot and lift the foot up such that the heel feels lower.

Shoes rubbing or too small

If you bought a shoe and it is a little bit too tight or rubbing on the back of your ankles, try stretching them so that they fit better. The most gentle way of stretching is the sock trick where you roll up socks and shove them into a shoe for a night. This will stretch the shoes a little bit and make it more smooth and comfortable.

Wedding shoes for wide feet

Not many beautiful wedding footwear is available in wide sizes. We found Touch Ups sandals which have a very low heel and are suitable for large women. Although according to the reviews many wedding shoes are flexible and are worn by people with wide feet without problems.
