The Best Comfortable Heels for Weddings - Style, Comfort

Wedding season is quickly approaching, and we know that you’re excited to unveil your reception attire. From the best jewelry that draws attention to your plunging neckline to matching hair berets against bridal bouquets, what’s not to love about saying yes to the dress - wedding guest style? But there’s another accessory that’s just as crucial (if not more) than your fit, and it’s comfortable heels for weddings. These shoes don’t just tie together your entire ensemble; they also carry you through all the activities of the night. You deserve to dance the night away and give toasts to your college bestie-turned-bride without your feet aching before dinner. And that’s where VICE VERSA comes in. 

It’s tradition for the bride to get anything she needs with a snap of her fingers, right? The wedding guests deserve to be pampered, too, and you can get stylish and soothed feet in seconds with a snap of your convertible heels. We offer the best heels for weddings that fold from flawless stilettos to casual flats with the press of a button, helping you blend modern style with major comfort. And the best part? They’re not just special occasion shoes, but about to become the new go-to's that follow you from the wedding to work. And bars. And brunch dates. Here’s the guide to the best heels for weddings that VICE VERSA has to offer….

The Most Comfortable Heels for Weddings: What to Consider

More length, more leeway

Want to know a secret? The best heels for weddings don’t have to match your dress perfectly. These shoes can contrast your attire in a way that puts just enough attention on you without overshadowing the bride… and the longer your dress is, the more leeway you have with your heels. You can utilize a less common color, like the misty purple from our Shimmer Heel, and give fellow guests a magical glimpse between dances. You also shouldn’t put pressure on yourself to go super-high with your convertible heels, as it’s your long and luxurious dress that will be taking center stage. Don’t get us wrong, your shoes will undoubtedly catch attention and pull together your wedding style as your most important accessory. However, they also take a step back (pun intended) and let your long dress and luxurious wedding makeup have the spotlight. 

Location, location, location

Casual reminder: VICE VERSA was a product of our fearless leader, Alanna Fusaro, realizing that she couldn’t run along the cobblestone streets of New York City in heels. And you definitely shouldn’t have to do it as a wedding guest. Like buying a house, choosing the most comfortable heels for weddings is all about location. 

‍

For instance, those attending garden and beach weddings should avoid stilettos or other ultra-high heels. These tend to get stuck in the sand or dirt, respectively, and you’d be better off with flats, wedges, or block heels instead. A semi-formal ballroom or church wedding? You can’t go wrong with a classic mid-length heel, which supports you through everything from bridesmaid speeches to catching the bouquet at the end of the night. We’re especially fond of our Everyday Heel set in Midnight Black, which was made for a black-tie or cocktail wedding and provides the ideal mix of sophisticated and sexy. 

Suit your style

Your style is entirely your own, and you should never give it up for a second. Even when choosing the most comfortable heels for weddings. Resist the urge to grab the highest heels you can find when you’re normally a sneakers girl, trust us. We know what you may be thinking. “Beauty is pain!” or “I wear high heels occasionally for nights out and work meetings, I’ll be just fine.” But we’re here to tell you that it’s just not worth the risk, babe. You deserve to dance the night away in a pain-free and personable way, and it’s never been a better time to shop the most comfortable heels for weddings. This also goes for the glamazons who were thinking about choosing flats for convenience when they’ve been dreaming of tall heels. You never need to sacrifice your personal style at your best friend’s wedding with shoes from VICE VERSA.

Break them in 

Whether you have one, five, or ten summer 2022 weddings to attend, you should always break in your convertible heels before the first one arrives. The last thing you need is blister-filled feet before the reception, which is why you should start practicing with your heels for at least a couple weeks before wedding season begins. We’re definitely not telling you to stroll a mile to Starbucks in them, but it’s never too early to start rehearsing! You’ll feel instantly better and more comfortable once you’ve broken in your most comfortable heels for weddings, especially knowing that your VICE VERSA favorites will transform into flats whenever you need them.

Consider two pairs of shoes

You may have been to a wedding or two in which the bride does a dress change for the reception, creating a more casual and dance-friendly environment. Who says that wedding guests can’t do the same with their shoes? If your heart is set on going with sky-high and/or designer heels during the ceremony, be sure to have a backup that lets you avoid blisters. Like our VICE VERSA foldable heels, perhaps? You can have your (wedding) cake and eat it too with the double shoe compromise, and it helps that you’ll have a pair of foldable heels that provide incredible memories and major convenience for all your future events. 

Styles: The Most Comfortable Heels for Weddings
