On their wedding day, it is common for brides to spend hour after hour on their feet. From the aisle to the altar to the dance floor, the wedding day can take quite a toll on the tootsies. Brides must be confident that their shoes are broken in adequately before the big day. By following these simple steps, brides can avoid those dreaded honeymoon blisters.
Instructions
1. Start wearing your wedding shoes on different surfaces around the house several weeks before the wedding. Don#x2019;t wait until the last minute. Breaking in shoes takes time.
2. Stand in your shoes in one place, as you would at the ceremony, and check your level of comfort. If you are not comfortable, you will need to continue wearing the shoes around the house.
3. If you plan to wear stockings on your wedding day, try on a similar pair with your wedding shoes and wear them around the house.
4. Wear your wedding shoes on slippery surfaces to check if the bottoms are slick. If you are enrolled in a dance class, wear your wedding shoes to class. If not, do some dancing in your wedding shoes. Make sure they fit properly and don't fly off your feet.
5. Place no-slip stickers on the bottoms of your wedding shoes to avoid taking a spill during the ceremony or reception. Another option is to scuff the bottoms with sandpaper to add traction. Remember that an unexpected fall might make for a humorous anecdote on your 10-year anniversary, but it certainly won#x2019;t be funny on the big day.
