1. The criteria for choosing your shoes for the wedding brunch

The day-after wedding brunch is a more relaxed moment, where the outfit becomes simpler. However, the choice of clothing and shoes for a wedding brunch remains important to stay comfortable while keeping a polished look suited to the occasion.

Choosing the right shoes for a wedding brunch is essential. Here are a few important criteria to consider in order to feel comfortable in your next-day outfit:

  • Comfort: After spending a day in heels, comfort is essential. Our wedding shoes, such as our flat sandals or our sneakers, are ideal for this occasion.
  • Elegance: Shoes should complete your outfit while allowing you to feel comfortable, whether you are wearing dresses, trousers or other garments. Our gold heeled sandals or our modern sneakers add a sophisticated touch to your appearance.
  • Adaptability: Whether the brunch takes place indoors, in a garden or on a terrace, your shoes should suit the setting. For an outdoor brunch, our comfortable sandals and our wedding sneakers offer good grip and optimal comfort.

Keeping these criteria in mind, you will be ready to choose the perfect shoes for your wedding brunch.

2. Our shoe recommendations for the day after the wedding

After the previous day’s celebrations, it is essential to feel comfortable. So forget the ceremony outfit! Slip into more comfortable shoes for the brunch.

Flat leather sandals

The flat sandals are ideal for the day after your wedding, a perfect blend of comfort and a relaxed yet polished style. They allow you to remain elegant while being comfortable, which is essential after a long wedding day. Gold sandals remain a safe choice for a wedding brunch, easy to pair and suited to the occasion.

Low-heeled sandals

The mid-heel sandals are an excellent option for the wedding brunch, combining elegance and comfort. They offer enough height to add a touch of sophistication to your outfit, while still being comfortable enough for a relaxing day after the celebrations.

Trendy sneakers

Would you rather go for a relaxed look? You will probably choose a pair of sneakers for your wedding brunch. Pied de Biche offers a selection of white sneakers that combine style and comfort.

Our loafers

The loafers are something of a safe choice when you want to look attractive with the only compromise being not wearing heels. They offer a sophisticated look while ensuring great comfort, ideal after a day of celebrations. 

3. Which color palette should you choose?

To enhance your silhouette, it is essential to choose the right color palette. Opt for shades that reflect the atmosphere of your wedding brunch and your personality.

Neutral tones

Choose neutral colors such as gold or black, which pair easily with all outfits. These versatile shades bring a touch of sophistication without overloading your look. Gold shoes add a festive and delicate note, perfect for a wedding brunch. Black shoes, meanwhile, are timeless and adapt to all clothing combinations. Whether you choose sandals, loafers or sneakers, neutral colors ensure visual harmony while remaining understated and refined.

Touches of color

Incorporating colorful shoes can bring a touch of cheerfulness and originality to your look. Vibrant shades such as powder pink, muscat, mahogany, or brown can transform a simple outfit into an attractive and colorful one. These bold colors add character and personality to your ensemble, perfect for a wedding brunch where the atmosphere is more relaxed.

Patterns

Leopard-print or reptile-effect leathers are an interesting option for a wedding brunch. They add character to the outfit while still being suited to a next-day silhouette. Leopard prints or reptile effects are easy to pair with clothing in neutral shades. On loafers or sneakers, patterns can enhance a simple outfit for a wedding brunch, while keeping the overall result balanced.

4. Final tips to remember for a perfect post-wedding outfit

To make sure your wedding brunch look is perfect, here are a few essential tips:

1. Match with the outfit

For a harmonious style, choose shoes that perfectly complement your wedding brunch outfit. Make sure the colors and the style work together for a harmonious and elegant appearance.

2. Plan a backup pair

Always having a spare pair in case of discomfort is essential. A pair of comfortable shoes can save your day if your feet start to feel tired. Fall for the iconic flat sandal: the gold sandal Hortensia, attractive and refined.

3. Accessories

Complete your appearance with matching accessories such as handbags and jewelry. These elements add a chic finishing touch, elevating your overall outfit.

FAQ – Shoes for a wedding brunch

  • Can you wear the same shoes as the day before for the brunch? 

It is possible, but rarely comfortable. After a day in heels, it is better to plan a softer pair for the next day.

  • What shoes should you wear for an outdoor wedding brunch?

For a brunch in a garden or on a terrace, choose stable soles such as flat sandals, sneakers or loafers. Thin heels are less suitable.

  • What heel height should you choose for a wedding brunch? 

For a wedding brunch, it is recommended to choose a low or mid heel, between 3 and 6 cm. This height allows you to stay comfortable while keeping an elegant outfit.

  • Can you wear sneakers to a wedding brunch without looking too “sporty”? 

Yes, provided you choose a neat “lifestyle” model. Our white leather sneakers are designed to be worn with a dress or flowing trousers: they tone down the overly formal side of the day before while still looking impeccable for family photos.
