If you've been spending any time on social media researching your wedding attire, you've probably seen that bridal heels and wedding shoes really take center stage in some wedding photos. You may have seen those beautiful images of the bride's shoes either placed next to her other accessories, on a box, or peeking out from under the hem of her dress. Oftentimes, there's a designer name peeking out as well.

Wedding Shoes Under $100
Your wedding day can definitely be a great one-of-a-kind day to rock some fancy designer heels, and if that's your dream, then please check out this post on designer wedding shoes. However, sometimes you'll find that the cost of everything for the wedding starts to pile up, and you just want some lovely shoes for your wedding day, but don't want to pay designer prices. Here are my picks for some great quality shoes for the bride - all under $100.
Where to Find Affordable Bridal Shoes for Under $100
This shopping section will show you where to find what we think are some of the prettiest, affordable bridal shoes under $100.
In addition to these stores, here are some of the shops that consistently carry wedding shoes under $100.
Lulus has a great selection of wedding shoes that are perfect for walking down the aisle or wearing to any of your pre-wedding parties and events.
Nordstrom has a great selection of wedding shoes brands like Jewel Badgley Mischka, Steve Madden, Azalea Wang, and Nina that retail at or under $100.
DSW always has a great selection of wedding shoes under $100, with lots of styles under $50! We love their Kelly & Katie line, and have a few pairs of these block heels, and can vouch for their comfort.
ASOS has some designer-inspired and gorgeous wedding shoes, well under $100 - many are under $75. ASOS always has fashion-forward styles, and these shoes show that for sure!
If you're looking for flats, custom shoes, or wedding sneakers, Etsy has several shoemakers who do custom work on hand-beaded shoes at affordable prices.
Zappos has a great selection of name-brand wedding shoes that have been marked down. You can frequently find last season's designer wedding shoes for under $100.
Nordstrom Rack is a must-shop spot if you're looking for designer names for less. You can frequently find some of the best wedding shoes by designers like Dolce Vita, Badgley Mischka, and Dune London on sale here, and most wedding shoes are significantly discounted, running between $40 - $150.
TJ Maxx and Marshalls are always great for a bargain. In-store, you might get lucky and find a pair of wedding shoes in your size, but online, both stores offer a much better selection and great deals! Check on this current wedding shoe selection for TJ Maxx and for Marshalls.

More Wedding Shoe Tips
Happily, as you can see, there are many really wonderful choices when it comes to bridal shoes for under $100 -- some are even under $30! Whether you pick a $1,000 pair or a $40 pair, think not only of your overall wedding style, but also of your comfort. You certainly don't want to have to hobble around because of a painful blister or curtail your dancing because of a strap that digs in.
It's also a good idea to pick out your shoes at the same time as your dress, so that you have them on hand for your alterations. Not only can you see the overall look, but you can also get an accurate idea of your dress length with shoes on, and decide where you want your hemline to fall for alterations.
These shoes aren't limited to just your wedding day. Buying a pair of bridal shoes that you can wear with dresses to your pre-wedding parties, like your bridal shower or bachelorette, as well as a special pair for your wedding day, is a great idea!
