Alternative Footwear and Vintage Scenery

Love this look of matching Chucks for a twist on traditional wedding footwear! Between the shoes and the vintage truck you can tell this couple is stylish and playful.

And you know that Saundra at Planning Forever...Events would LOVE this!

Wedding Flip Flops

Crank up the tunes and throw on your dancing shoes! No party should be held back by a pair of painful heels, but hey that's just our opinion.

One of our clients provided adorable bags for her guests to put their heels into, and we had a shoe check (instead of a coat check), and everyone put on a pair of flops and danced the night away.

Multi-colored Bridesmaid Shoes

We've talked about white bridesmaids dresses before, and regardless of how you feel about them, this combination is just fantastic, all of the bright pops of colors with the heels and the way the brides' bouquet ties it all together is just plain awesometastic!

We love this... what do you think?

Shoe Decals

Shoes, shoes, shoes, and shoes....these are a few of a girl's favorite things! And why not, shoes are absolutely fabulous, are they not? When I saw these new shoe decals on Etsy, I couldn't believe wedding shoes could get any better, but they do!

These decals are so adorable (and make for a great close-up photo of the shoes!).

How awesome of an idea are these??

Flower Girl Dress

Photography by: Caroline Johnson

I love this image for so many reasons! First, I think it's adorable that the Flower Girl is helping the bride ger ready, so sweet!

I love this because this flower girl dress, tutu and leotard combination is just so stinkin' cute!

I love it because you can see how much the Flower Girl is concentrating on getting the shoe on just so.

It's true a picture is worth a thousand words. I think everyone sees something different in an image. And that is what makes photography at your wedding so worth it!

Your wedding shoes are such a great way to express your personality! 

Oh The Places We Went

These shoes were definately not made for walking. In fact, they are what I have dubbed my "Wedding Shoes". I have found over the years, that I must have comfy shoes for working weddings. Otherwize, there is no walking at all the day after a wedding. And then my back is killing me, and then John can't stand to hear me moan and groan... so I wear something cute for the ceremony, and then the wedding shoes come into play for the remainder of the wedding...

And these shoes, these, right here...

Yes, those are holes on the bottom of the soles.

It was a silly emotional thing for me to come to the realization that I must toss these shoes, and I could have should have thrown them out months ago, because they really had, had enough. But I couldn't. They had to see me through the remainder of our season. I mean, really, these shoes had seen alot of emotion, they had been with me through alot.

63 Weddings.

These shoes made it through 63 weddings with me. That's a lot of I Do's. A lot of running, a lot of miles of running around, a heckuvalot of secret missions, love notes, emergencies, tears, sweat, and maybe even some blood, but really... just plain a lot of stuff.

So they had to see me through the rest of our season. Had to. Must.

And now that our season is over until January (I'm sad, but also kind of glad, we needed a mini break, and the holidays are coming up... so it's fambly time).

But these shoes had to see me though Ashley and Jordan's wedding to successfully finish their mission. And they did.

And I am proud of them. I'm proud of us, and our team!

John asked me if I was going to bronze them. Sort of silly... although I did consider it.

And honestly, just thinking about the last 63 weddings makes me a bit emotional. I started wearing them before I had Gabriel, before I knew I was pregnant. Why, in the world did I wear them so long? Its not like  I couldn't afford new shoes... nostaglia maybe? Comfort? Lazy?

So, now on the new shoes. New love. New weddings. New beginings.
