If you read my blog entries in the past you noticed that there are a few entries or passages in regards to my sore feet. Weddings take it's toll. That's why I need a good shoe due to all the blisters, bumps and bruises I end up with at the end of the night. I would have never thought that I would blog about sore, blistered feet. ha,ha But, it's actually a very important part of being a wedding planner.
I'm usually on my feet for 10+ hours. Between following bridal prep, setting up, ceremony, reception and clean up it's a very long day. I barely have time to stop, let alone sit and rest my feet. I run back and forth all day making sure all the details are taken cared of. So, needless to say shoes become very important.
Of course during the setup until closer to the ceremony I am in more comfortable attire. Therefore, able to wear a more comfortable shoes. I usually wear similar to a sneaker. Now if I could wear a nice cocktail dress with a sneaker, I would be in heaven. I don't think the bride, family or even guests would approve. So I'm left with wearing a dress shoe. Now ladies as you know, not very many nice looking dress shoes are very comfortable. I've tried flats, heeled, semi-flat, leather and non-leather shoes. Nothing seems to work. I always end up with sores and blisters.
Now with the urging (wink-wink) of a friend, I've decided to go on the lookout for the all mysterious, often fabled comfortable nice looking shoe. I'm going to shop diligently and experiment with probably at least a dozen shoes until I find it. My goal is to find that oh so elusive shoe. And I will, my feet depend on it!

Try a naturalized shoe. Those are comfortable especially when you're on your feet all day.
