I'm still on my beach wedding kick, and so it only makes sense that we talk about beach wedding shoes! Beach weddings call for sand-friendly, but statement-making sandals. Read on to see my thoughts behind these picks for sandals for beach weddings!

Which Shoes Should You Wear for a Beach Wedding?
I'm usually a fan of a heeled shoefor a wedding, but the beach is one place where a high heel--or any shoe that has a barrier to balance in the sand--is an impediment, which is the last thing you want on your wedding day! I often recommend a wedge heel for an outside wedding, but on a sandy beach, unless the wedge heel is super-low ( i.e., under an inch) it is probably going to cause some trouble.
Going barefoot is always an option, but for those who want a little something for their feet that goes beyond the standard rubber flip-flop, I suggest the following selections of embellished beach sandals. These are designer styles, and worthy of a special wedding day. They have the perfect amount of chic ornamentationfor brides wanting some special details, and they could also work for wedding guests, bridesmaids, and mothers at a beach wedding. More picks below!
