Considering you’ll be wearing your wedding shoes for the entire day, you want them to feel good. It’s going to be such an important and busy day that the last thing you should be thinking about is sore feet on your wedding day.

Even if you don’t actually try to add it, wedding days are full of symbolism. From the rings you exchange to the flowers in your hair, you’ll find symbols in lots of places.

There are many wedding traditions that feel like they have always been around. Everything from who proposes, to the colour of your wedding dress and who walks you down the aisle… but these traditions don’t work for everyone! Some of these traditions are steeped in oppressive and sexist roots, which is why many couples are opting for more modern approach. If you are looking to plan a feminist wedding, then try making these switches.
