Wedding Day Shoes


I've not given a whole lot of thought to wedding shoes until recently. My bridesmaids will be wearing long dresses, so I'm not worried about their shoes matching. I say, let them wear what they like that's comfortable, no one will really see them anyway!

Thanks to Pinterest, I came to a decision about the shoes I'll be wearing on my wedding day. I'd been playing around with idea of wearing plum shoes to match the color of my bridesmaids' dresses. I came across some photos that I just LOVED and knew, I HAVE to wear plum shoes!






Now I'm on the hunt for plum (or dyeable) peep-toe pumps!

Pinterest

If you're like me, you may have been hearing a lot about something called Pinterest. For months I've been hearing about it, I was being told I HAD to get on it.

I finally got on Pinterest and immediately became obsessed. Pinterest is a virtual pinboard where you can find ideas and "pin" them to your boards. You can organize and share all the beautiful things you find on the web. It's full of recipes, crafts, ideas for decorating your home, and best of all, wedding ideas. You can browse pinboards created by other people which lets you discover new things and get inspiration from people who share your interests. To get started, request an invite.

I've started several different wedding boards to pin things I like. I have one for Wedding Ideas (everything from reception decor, to escort cards and cake stands) another for Wedding Day Style (Hairstyles, shoes, makeup) and another with wedding photography of shots that I like - good thing my photographer is on Pinterest!

It's like having an inspiration board for my wedding day! I love that all my wedding ideas are all in one place for my friends and family to see. I've already found a lot of great ideas I want to incorporate!  This is a must-have tool for any bride-to-be!

Happy pinning!
