When you get an invitation to a beach or outdoor wedding, many minds jump to footwear; you can’t wear your typical wedding shoes as thinner heels will sink into the soft grass and rubber-bottomed flats will get ruined in the sand. To save your life and the life of your shoes, we rounded up the top wedge wedding shoes that won’t get stuck from trusted brands like Badgley Mischka and Jessica Simpson. Finish off your brand new sundress with a set of cork-bottom wedges for a summer ceremony and revamp that midi look you wore last year with a pair of glittering heels.
