Flats that would make Cleopatra jealous | Bridal Shoes
Her name was also Theresa, even a Theresa
with an "H" (that is the correct spelling after all ;) Theresa
was a practical bride, but a shoe connoisseur all the same. The shoe of choice
was a silver flat fit for a queen. Beautiful stones and strappy flats - nothing
can be more comfortable for one of the most demanding days on a woman's feet.
She said they were like walking on little clouds (or something very similar to
that). After shaking off my "oh, look, they're so pretty" daze I
found some good light and went to work crafting a fabulous shoe shot.
I have to say, once the bride slips into the dress there is this transformation and it's almost like she will never be the same woman again. She becomes the princess that she always imagined and is pretty much living a dream. Someone noteworthy, but who has seemed to slipped my mind once said something about fulfilling dreams. Well, this must have been one of those moments. Back on track now- Theresa's mom came to the rescue and started to slip the satiny sandals, (no bending over with this perfect du.) First the left and then the cutest flower girl ever, rushes in to save the day (the two-year old to the rescue!). No way could she let Theresa's mom be the only one helping the most beautiful bride ever put her shoes on. So cute, her blonde curls framing her charming little face!
Shoes on, matrons and maids in tow, Theresa set off for some snazzy photos with Randall and I. First shoefaux pa and only faux pa. The gemstones on the shoes got caught in the internal workings of the dress. You know, nobody could tell, but I think it bugged Theresa a little bit. Side note - ladies, I recommend trying the whole shebang one last time the day before, do a lap around your friends house (who is stashing the dress for you). Tip for the ultra prepared - I don't usually carry silicone grease or Vaseline around but I think that would have done the trick with smoothing the edged of the gemstones enough to keep them off the hem. Maybe…

Gems sticking or not - those sparkly slippers made their way all around the New England Aquarium's waterfront, chatted with every guest like the best host knows how and lit up the dance floor. How fast the day flys by when you are having fun!
