stupid little detail/ question but i need an answer!

Obviously, we need to break in our shoes prior to the day of.

Typically (for me)- this includes wearing them (with & w/o socks to stretch) AND scuffing the bottoms a bit on the cement.

However- i want to have pictures with the bottom of my shoes & the 'I DO!' stickers

Should i not scuff? does it show? Any already married brides have any advice?

Unless your shoes are particularly slippery, I wouldn't scuff if you want a photo. I definitely think you have to break in for comfort, but I don't think scuffing the bottoms are necessary.

I wouldn't scuff. The stickers might also stop any slipping.

As for wearing shoes to break them in, I don't think it really is that possible. I wore mine around the house and 15 minutes later I was bored and took them off. There is no way to prepare to wear heels for 12 hours if you are not used to them.

great question.

you could always have the picture taken then have one of the bridesmaids scuff them up right after?

I was wondering the same thing... I ask my friend if it was okay to wear my shoes to a wedding this month I have to break them in. They are Christian Louboutin red bottoms and she brought up a good point. My shoes will be scuffed and it won't look good for pictures on my wedding day.

I'm wearing flats because I know I will not be able to wear heels all night.

yea, I wouldn't scuff them if you want them to look good for pics, you could always quickly scuff them after, those pics are usually taken before the ceremony even begins

I wore mine the morning of the wedding around my house and that was it. They were fine the day of. I took them off right before my reception started (after cocktail hour and pictures)
