Grooms Wedding Shoes

Grooms Wedding Shoes: unlike the bride, groom’s have a very simple choice! For a traditional wedding, either formal, or informal, it’s black, black and more black!

Grooms wedding shoes for a formal traditional wedding, when the Groom is wearing either a morning suit or frock coat, are the traditional black brogue. Some popular men’s shoemakers and styles are as follows:

Alfred Sargent: Ealing or Enfield
Barker: Alfred
Cheaney: Lambeth
Grenson: Northampton
Loake: 200, 205, 805
John White

If having an evening wedding and wearing a dinner jacket a formal black slip on shoe may be worn. Again, some popular men’s shoemakers and styles are as follows:

John White: Carl, Enzo
Loake: Brecon

For formal Scottish Highland wear the black “Ghillie” Brogue should be work, with laces and tassels.

If you are not having a formal traditional wedding then the grooms wedding shoes are purely a matter of personal choice.

Here are some tips that you may find useful:

- The final fitting for your wedding trousers should be made with the shoes you intend to wear, particularly if having a false heel added to give you extra height.
- Ensure you wear your shoes in, so that you do not end up with blisters on your wedding night.
- Ensure the soles are scuffed so you do not end up flat on your backside in the middle of the dance floor!
- Ensure you try your shoes on with a sample of the sock you are going to wear.
- Try to purchase a shoe made from natural products – your feet are less likely to smell!
- Your shoes should compliment what you are wearing and reflect your personal style.

Finally, if you already have a tried and trusted pair of shoes, make sure you polish them!
