Our Tips to Choose Mother of the Bride Shoes:
Now that we have shown you a few of our favorite styles (view the full Mother of the Bride Collection here), we want to give you some more general advice for selecting the perfect shoes.
These are the key factors to consider when making your choice for mother of the bride or mother of the groom shoes.
1. Make sure your shoes are elegant
If you are the mother of the bride or mother of the groom, you need to look the part! This is the time to wear pretty, elegant and feminine shoes which will make you look and feel a million dollars.
Your mother of the bride shoes should be heels. They don’t have to be high heels, but a refined shoe with a slim heel or a chic block heel is your best bet for this event.
You can choose a round toe-shape, almond toe-shape or pointed toe-shape. But steer clear of boxy square toes or heavy shoes which look like office-wear.

2. Choose comfortable mother of the bride shoes
Your son or daughter’s wedding is a very special day, but it is a long day…and there is a lot of standing! Your mother of the bride shoes need to be comfortable enough to stand in them all day long and into the evening. You also want to be able to dance in them!
Don’t change into flip flops on the dancefloor. Instead invest in comfortable heels which will keep you on your feet all day and all night.
If you you are unsure of your shoe size, buy the shoes you like in two sizes, try them on at home and send back the size which doesn't fit you as well. Most Sole Bliss shoes are available in half sizes so that you can find your perfect fit. You should never squeeze your fit into shoes which are too small for you, and you certainly don't want to be slipping out of shoes which are too big.
We recommend taking your shoes for a test drive before the big day too! Wear your heels around the house to make sure they are going to be comfortable enough for you to wear for hours on end.

3. Don’t worry about perfectly matching colors
Gone are the days of perfectly matching the color of your dress with your mother of the bride shoes. Color matching can be very difficult (the dye-able shoe is never a good idea!) and the look is quite old-fashioned.
Instead, you should opt for a shoe color which complements your dress, rather than perfectly matches it. If you are wearing a bright-colored dress, neutral colors are a great option. You can choose shades of nude, blush, or pale grey. Metallics are also an option, for example silver, rose gold or champagne.
Another option for mother of the bride shoes is to choose a color which is one or two shades darker than your dress.
If you are wearing a black dress, then you certainly can match colors. A chic black heel will look great!

4. Take into consideration the time of year
It is important to remember what season your son or daughter is getting married in. There are some mother of the bride shoes which are timeless and will look great all year round. However, there are other mother of the bride shoes which will work better in the winter or the summer.
For a winter wedding, a closed toe shoe or a classic court shoe is best. For a summer wedding, you can choose a peep-toe heel or a dressy sandal.
You should also consider that feet tend to swell in the warmer months of the year. If the wedding is taking place in the summer, you should make sure your mother of the bride shoes are going to be comfortable with slightly swollen feet.
Did you know that your feet are at their warmest in the afternoon? That’s why we recommend trying on your mother of the bride shoes in the afternoon, so you can be sure that they will be comfortable when the weather gets a little warmer.
If your son or daughter is getting married in the summer, will you be standing outside? If there is a reception on the lawn, you might want to avoid a stiletto and take a look at your options for wedges.

5. Don’t go too high
Yes, a heel is definitely the elegant choice for your mother of the bride shoes. But nobody is forcing you to wear six-inch stilettos. We wouldn’t recommend going much higher than 3-4 inches if you are not used to wearing high heels.
Always look for shoes with extra padding under your foot. All Sole Bliss shoes feature triple-layer underfoot cushioning which provides total comfort and protection for your feet. If you are wearing sandals, make sure the straps are supportive. If you have wide feet, look for shoes with a deep and spacious toe-box (at the front of the foot).
