Wedding shoes are among the most crucial parts of the day. After all, they have to carry the bride through some very special moments. Many women choose to go the dainty, or high-heeled, route, but others see something equally wonderful in a great pair of boots. Here are 10 brides from our real-life wedding files who took the plunge in style – and comfort.

If you can’t wear pink rubber boots on your wedding day, when can you? Danielle and Anthony had a fairytale wedding, which showcased their unique style. For example, since there was a huge storm the night before the celebration, the pair made the most of the puddles by jumping in them for photos – after Danielle switched her stunning heels for something a little sturdier, of course.

We love that brides Vanessa and Irene wore matching gumboots at their wedding. And there is, of course, a story behind it. As Irene explains: “Ness doesn’t like heels and I actually had an injured foot, so to make sure we made it down the aisle without falling flat on our faces, I came up with the idea of wearing gumboots and changing on the stairs. My sister suggested the striped socks to add some more fun into it.” Read about her wedding here.
