Dressing for the weather is a surefire way to feel confident and polished, so if you're planning a winter wedding, it makes sense to consider footwear beyond the traditional pointed-toe pumps and block heel sandals. After all, who wants cold, wet feet on their wedding day?!
The options for winter wedding shoes are varied and depend on the specific venue, your dress code, and personal style. Let's look at some gorgeous winter wedding shoes to strut down the aisle in style, whatever the weather.
Heeled boots
Heeled ankle boots provide a stylish and practical solution, keeping your feet warm and dry while still looking chic and pulled together. Fashion-forward brides may also consider knee-high boots to up the style and warmth factor, perhaps to showcase a different look for the wedding welcome dinner or after party.
Cowboy boots
For a more casual or rustic wedding, you can't go wrong with western boots. Cowboy boots are trending among both brides and the street-style set thanks to being sophisticated yet fun with enduring appeal. What other footwear has been embraced by Princess Di, Dolly Parton and Dua Lipa alike?

Crisp white low-top or high-top sneakers can provide a modern, youthful look that's perfect for dancing the night away, while also keeping your feet cozy in the colder temperatures.

Festive wedding shoes
If you're tying the knot over the holiday season, green and red shoes can be a gorgeous, eye-catching option for brides looking to embrace the joyous spirit of the occasion. A deep, rich emerald green satin pump or strappy sandal evokes the lush, verdant tones of the holiday season, while a bold crimson red heel adds a touch of classic Christmas cheer. These vibrant, jewel-toned hues instantly elevate your overall bridal look, making your feet the sparkling centerpiece.
Alternatively, a playful plaid pattern can also be a wonderfully festive choice. A tartan-printed flat or low heel gives off a cozy, rustic vibe perfect for a winter wedding, while still feeling fun and festive.
