Summer brings a lot of wonderful thoughts to mind – a beautiful vineyard bursting with luscious grapes, and a cozy chapel that awaits you and the love of your life to walk down its aisle. It could also conjure up a wedding by the beach-side with the breeze blowing the soft curls of your hair astray, and a slow dance in the moonlight at night.

There are a couple of shoe styles that are available for celebrating a summer wedding, and these include heels, wedges and even bridal flip flops. The makeover you need for your summer wedding calls for extra care and attention, and these are a couple of good pointers to work with: -

Have Fun with Colors

Ever noticed how there seems to be a burst of color when summer comes around? Why not add the same flash of color to your wedding wardrobe? A beautiful shade of turquoise or sea green, for example, would definitely enhance the elements of your beach wedding. If you are having a rustic wedding by the countryside, go for a choice of floral fabric on your wedding shoes, and it is bound to work like a charm on your wedding day. Polka dots are also worth a second look, and never fail to impress!

Flaunt the Shoe Details

A beachside wedding is best matched with a pair of sandals, as having shoes with height on them usually causes more harm than style, especially when it involves walking on the sandy beach itself. This does not mean that the wedding shoes have to be plain old brown leather with some straps on it; think about metal mesh details, appliqués, and stonework on the shoes. You could also get wedding shoes in beautiful jeweled or metallic tones, which are bound to steal the show if the wedding is in the evening. If the function is set for the morning, go for a sandal with a little bit of wedge on it, and block colors.

Try Out Peep Toes

A couple of cobblestones can handle a few heels on them, and peep toes are coming up as a new trend in summer wedding shoes. These cute shoes come in many different designs, and the colors are vividly beautiful ranging from nudes to corals and deep burgundy. Peep toes will give you a look that is elegant and composed at the same time, which is exactly the kind of look you would want for your summer wedding.

Mix and Matched Shoe Designs

Why not give life to a pair of shoes that contradicts the usual notion of a summer wedding shoe, and try out a peep toe pair that has a wedge on it, or sandals that have studs covering your heels? The look might just evoke a new trend, and you were the one to start it out.

With a good fashion sense and the right effect, any pair of shoe can be made to be the star of your wardrobe. Be sure to get one that brings out your stature and is kind to your feet, and waltz the night away in your summer wedding shoes.
