Dance the night away and treat your feet to comfort!


When your feet hurt it shows on your face! Here are a few ideas to help you prepare for your big day.

Break them in!
A couple of weeks before the wedding, start wearing your wedding shoes inside the house with a thin pair of socks or hose for and hour or so at a time to soften them up and help them mold to your feet. Why wear with hosiery inside? It’s to keep them clean so your photographer can snap a detail shot!

Use “foot petals” shoe cushions
These are shoe pads that you place inside of your shoes to prevent slippage, toe pinching or “ugly overhang” and offer super comfort at the ball of your feet where you need it most. Foot Petals are great products and are completely reusable. For a mere $6.95 a pair, they will save your feet. Once you try them, you’ll be hooked!

Just In…Angela Nuran Wedding Dance Shoes
If you love to dance and want the ultimate in comfort, check out this brand new line of shoes designed by a professional dancer, choreographer and now shoe designer. Angela has choreographed hundreds of first dances and has seen all too often the plight of the painful shoe. Utilizing the concept of a pillow top mattress, her signature design uses extra thick soft padding for all parts of the insole of the footbed. Hand crafted of luxe silk satin white or pearl ivory, they are available in heel heights of 2 ¼” and 3 ½”. She has definitely filled the void in the bridal shoe market. It’s no wonder her motto is “feeling is believing”.
