As a shoe-lover myself, I think the perfect pair of Rehearsal Dinner Shoes is integral to a perfect outfit.
Whether you’ve hired a photographer or not, there will be plenty of pictures snapped throughout the night, and you want to LOVE your outfit.
We’ve put together a list of The It-Girl Rehearsal Dinner Shoes of the Season!
The obvious first choice for our team was the Dolce Vita Kanika Heel in the color Vanilla Silk. These shoes have been trending for not only a rehearsal dinner shoe, but an everyday kitten heel for work. I’ve seen nothing but positive reviews, and when I tried these on, they fit like a glove.
I am absolutely obsessed with the combination of the silky look of the toe and the pearl accent for the strap. These shoes are a classic for any It-Girl. Whether you’re doing a short dress, long dress, or jumpsuit for your rehearsal dinner, these shoes will match anything.
A less expensive option, these shoes sit at $135 retail on Dolce Vita’s Website. You can usually find Dolce Vita on other sites such as Revolve, Zappos, and others.
Another Dolce Vita pick, the Patton Heels in the color Ivory Satin, are to die for. These heels are much more chunky than the last pick, and the large wedge sits at 1” tall. The heel on this shoe is 4” but when pairing with a short dress, these would be a great option.
Typically, brides-to-be don’t wear this type of heel with a longer or floor length gown for a rehearsal dinner. Rather, pair this shoe with a short dress (mid-thigh) or a middie (just below the knees).
Dolce Vita, is definitely a less expensive option when it comes to shoes, however, the quality does not reflect the price. From the shoes that I have tried/owned, Dolce Vita’s quality is outstanding.
These Betsey Johnson Roo Blue Floral Heels are absolutely perfect as a Coastal Rehearsal Dinner Shoe. The blue floral pattern on these shoes makes a simple slip dress much more elevated and can add a pop of color to an otherwise all-white outfit.
Of course, this shoe can be your “something blue” for your wedding day as well, however, why hide these shoes under a long ball gown! These stunning works of art need to be shown off and the star of every picture.
Another option under $150, these Betsey Johnson Heels get 4.5 stars on their website. They can also be purchased at DSW and Macy’s if you’re in a time crunch but want to try them on!
Sam Edelman will forever and always be a favorite of mine. Their styles, prices, and quality is off the charts and they definitely keep up with the trends. This Sam Edelman Bianka Slingback Pump in the color Ivory Lace, would elevate any Rehearsal Dinner Outfit.
A slingback pump truly can be worn with anything, but I would love to see this shoe with a floor-length slip dress of some kind. The lace accent on the toe really draws attention to the shoe without detracting from the beauty of the outfit.
Right in the same general price point as the Dolce Vitas, this pump sits at $140. However, if caught at the right time, Sam Edelman does run the occasional sale. These shoes can also be found on Zappos, DSW, and at Macy’s.
I’ve heard nothing but great things about Alexandre Birman shoes. These Clarita Bell Slingback Heels in the color Serene Blue are a beautiful “something blue” to add to the Rehearsal Dinner. Another coastal shoe pick, the color of these is very similar to that of a hydrangea.
If the blue color isn’t your favorite, the site also carries a white silk color as well. Again, a slingback pump is perfect with a long floor-length dress, however, it can be worn with anything.
These shoes are much more expensive than the other picks, sitting at $795, but the beauty of these shoes outshines the price.
