Most wedding planning tasks, while exciting, can come with a bit of stress (understatement of the year). But hunting for the perfect shoe to pair with your dream dress? That’s ALL fun, Cakies. As you might imagine, most of the brides that grace the pages of 100LC didn’t stop at a simple white heel, but took advantage of this rare occasion to buy the most beautiful, sparkly, and statement making pair they could find. It’s your wedding, after all. Here’s just a few unique wedding shoes we love, and where to find ’em…
