Without a doubt, the spring and summer wedding season is approaching—and final touches are being made. In just a few months, weeks, or days, the bride-to-be will gracefully glide down the aisle. With all that excitement, there are a few things that need to be addressed, one of which is footwear—after all, hasn’t everyone dreamed of their own Cinderella moment at one point or another? Wearing heels on your glamorous day is always a great idea. However, if you’re the type of person who’d prefer not to wear a pair of stilettos, platforms, or wedges, you may want to opt for a wedding flat.

Hear me out: Walking in heels—even if they are considered comfortable wedding shoes— is not for the faint of heart, and the big day is made for celebrating love, making memories, and being your most radiant self. Having sore feet at the end of your night should be the last of your worries. No doubt, you may even inspire your guests to swap out their heels for a Mary Jane, ballet flats, or even sneakers.

Being able to waltz through the evening has never been more comfy or chic. Style a flat on your big day–or any of the accompanying festivities–and bask in those magical moments you have been dreaming of. Ahead, shop the best wedding flats to wear for your special occasion.
