Can You Wear Sandals to a Wedding?
Wondering ''can I wear flat sandals to a wedding?' Jennifer Bailey, Founder & CEO of Calla Shoes says that "Yes! You can absolutely wear sandals to a wedding."
Whether you prefer flat, low, mid or high heeled sandals, with so many varieties of sandal silhouettes available, they are a versatile pick for any bride.
"At the end of the day, the most important thing is for you to feel comfortable and confident, so you can enjoy your special day," Jennifer explains. "If sandals are what will make you feel your best, then wear sandals."
Can I Wear Tights with Sandals to a Wedding?
"This really comes down to personal preference. Lots of women choose to wear tights or stockings on their wedding day, and they can actually help to make your shoes more comfortable and prevent blisters," comments Jennifer. In fact, if you're getting married in the cooler months but love the look of sandals, wearing tights with them could be an excellent idea.
"The good news is that there are specific hosiery options that have been designed to be worn with sandals. Simply look for open toe options, or tights with seam free toes," suggest Jennifer.
These sandals would all go so well with a boho wedding dress or short wedding dresses for a destination celebration
