How to Find Your Perfect Bridal Shoes

For those who decide to get married, the walk down the aisle is a pivotal moment you’ll cherish for the rest of your life. Meaning, every detail matters. Beautiful bridal shoes won’t simply finish off your look, they’ll also empower you as you take this momentous step. But how do you select your perfect pair? We’ve hand-picked our top eight styles to help narrow your search.

Barely-there sandals

For many brides, strappy sandals are the go-to wedding shoe, and it’s not hard to see why. This elegant style is leg-lengthening and creates a feminine silhouette, making it the perfect complement to every bridal look. Our Azia 95 is a timeless choice, while our pearl-embellished Sacora 100 sandal promises to bring a touch of glamour to any wedding outfit. Alternatively, take your styling cues from Hailey Bieber and opt for our Aveline 100, a minimal sandal elevated with bold bows embellishments.

Timeless pumps

When it comes to the world of footwear, pointed pumps are truly iconic, making them a timeless choice when it comes to selecting bridal shoes. The Romy 85 is a modern take on the classic pump, with an easy-to-manage 3.3-inch heel and a crystal-embellished pointed toe. Elsewhere, our lace-detailed Love 85 pumps strike the balance between elegant and effortless whilst our signature Saeda pumps - available in a plus satin, sparkling glitter and high-octane crystal finish – make the perfect accompaniment to any bridal look.

Plush platforms

Creating an elegant silhouette that elongates the legs, it’s no surprise platforms prove popular with brides. Platforms provide height whilst also offering stability thanks to thick soles and slightly chunkier heels. Better yet, there’s a style to suit every bridal outfit. The pearl and crystal-adorned Socorie 120 and Mionne 120 are our party platforms, whilst the paired-back Rosie 120 is a minimalist’s dream heel.

Elevated wedges

Wedges are the perfect solution for brides on the hunt for a manageable yet high heel. A bold statement shoe, wedges will complement shorter wedding dresses and full-length gowns alike. For the ultimate bridal wedge, look no further than our Bing 120. This bridal-approved white leather wedge comes with dazzling crystal straps, a 4.7-inch heel and a 1.9-inch platform, giving you added height that’s easy to walk in.

Modern mules

Combining clean, contemporary design with a strong, feminine silhouette, mules pair perfectly with more modern wedding ensembles. Fans of classic styles will adore our iconic Bing 100 and Anise 95 styles, both of which come in a veritable rainbow of shades and finished, depending on your preference. Brides looking for elegance and comfort will adore our Amara 45 mules, which boast pearl embellishments and a block heels.

Luxe flats

Why struggle through your special day if you’re not a fan of walking in heels? Break with convention and opt for a pair of shoes that will ensure you not only look stylish but also feel comfortable. Take our extensive range of Love flats or our Crystal Chain, pointed-toe Genevi flat - these dialled-up flats promise just as much impact as any heel.

Bridal trainers

They may not be the obvious choice, but in recent years a growing number of brides have eschewed traditional wedding shoes in favour of trainers. They’re the final word when it comes to comfortable footwear and a practical choice for outdoor weddings too. Complete with pearl embellishment, our white Hawaii/F trainers make a contemporary bridal alternative.

Statement styles

We all know bridal shoes need to complement the look, but who said they have to be white? You can pick any colour that works with your wedding ensemble. Bright colours might seem daunting, but subtle metallics can make just as much of a statement. Our Anise 95 mules are crafted in luxurious liquid gold leather, adding a flash of colour under a full-length gown. Elsewhere, our Ari ‘Cinderella’ shoe is adorned with Swarovski crystals, a design as memorable as the day itself.

Bespoke designs

If you want a truly unique look, consider customising your wedding day footwear. At Jimmy Choo, we pride ourselves on providing a premium Made-To-Order service. Select your preferred silhouette, fabric and colour palette for a fully customised look. You can even engrave your initials or wedding date on the soles in gold or blue – of course - lettering, transforming your shoes into a beautiful keepsake.
