One of the most fun parts of wedding planning (besides planning the honeymoon) is finding your dream wedding dress and shoes!! Whether you are getting married on the beach and need a white shoe that doesn’t sink into the sand, or your destination wedding venue overlooks the beach, you’ll want to make sure your shoes match the vibe of your wedding, and the venue! For a beach wedding, this usually means a shoe that is effortlessly elegant. Being on the beach does not mean your shoes have to be casual, hellooooo it is your wedding!! I think the key to a beach wedding bridal shoe is sticking to chunkier heels (these won’t sink in or get stuck in the grass or sand and will SAVE your feet when you’re dancing on them all night, anyway!), and picking a wedding shoe design that’s elegant, and matches with the coastal, seaside wedding atmosphere.

Here are my top picks for beautiful bridal shoes for a beach wedding:

**Many of these white bridal shoes also work for rehearsal dinner outfits!***

I am obsessed with these bridal shoes for a nautical wedding. They would look SO good seaside in Santa Barbara, the Hamptons, Bali, you name it. AND they have a chunky heel. WHAT A WINNER. Plus revolve does free returns on these beauties, so you can try them out first.

Margaux Bridal Atelier makes custom-made-to-order Italian leather sandals for brides and they are SO chic. You can customize things like the style, the interior color, and even add personal touches like a plate on the bottom of the shoe with your wedding date. I’m having some of these made for my rehearsal dinner and I can’t wait to show you guys on instagram! 

These Cole Haan wedges are an effortlessly chic choice for a beach wedding, and will be the most comfortable shoe you can wear as a bride. 

These Prada platforms are just gorgeous!! And love the chunky heel for a beach or lawn wedding. 

If you’re into a nude bridal heel sandal, these Badgley Mischka ones are a great option at only $255. 

I love these Badgley Mischka bridal heels for an upscale, elegant beach wedding. 

I love these for a beach wedding or rehearsal dinner!! Chunky heel, check! Strappy, modern effortless style, check!! White leather to match your wedding dress? Check!  And they’re super affordable, under $100. 

These Alexandre Birman heels wouldn’t be good if you’re in the sand or on a lawn, but if you’re on hard floor overlooking the beach (or perhaps to go with your rehearsal dinner dress) I absolutely love these bridal shoes!!

For a glam beach wedding, nothing will look better than Badgley Mischka’s stand-out heels. I have these in all-silver and love wearing them to big events! These white ones are gorgeous! (they’re not a super chunky heel though, so not ideal for sand or grass!)
