Listen. All we want, really, is a pair of stunning heels that don’t destroy our feet—a chic wedding shoe that feels special-occasion-worthy but doesn’t have us hobbling or going barefoot by the end of the night. Is that too much to ask?!
Thanks to Emmy London, it’s not!
Emmy London creates beautiful luxury shoes and accessories with a balance of beauty and comfort at the heart of their designs.
We’re all used to seeing super cute heels that you just *know* are gonna be unbearable or comfy heels that prioritize stability over, well, everything else. But Emmy London has cracked the code to doing BOTH. By using soft and breathable materials such as 100% luxury suedes and leathers to create their shoes, this avoids all cases of rubbing and pinching whilst dancing the night away. Each shoe’s shape is also carefully balanced and every single pair has padded insoles with memory foam from heel to toe. Every bride’s dream, right?
An answer to every heel-wearer’s prayers 🙏 🙌
Founded by designer Emmy Scarterfield (who’s designed for Georgio Armani and Bottega Veneta, nbd), Emmy London focuses on breathtaking bridal and occasionwear shoes and accessories. They have a wide range of ready-to-wear pairs you can have shipped straight away, but you can also go the made-to-order route and get a pair of wedding shoes custom-made and fit just for you! Ranging from bridal block heels to stilettos, the designs are available in a range of sizes, half sizes, and wide sizes from US 5 (35) – 13 (43) ensuring your shoes fit perfectly making you feel balanced, confident and comfortable.
If you’re lucky enough to be in the UK, you can visit the brand’s dreamy boutique in London for an unforgettable shopping experience where you’re basically Cinderella, with one of Emmy London’s expert stylists taking you through every option until you find *the* perfect shoe. And if you want that kind of hands-on experience but can’t make it to London, they even have virtual appointments!
Ok, enough gushing. Let’s look at some SHOES!!
Florence Mid Sparkle
If you’re a classic bride who wants a timeless silhouette but definitely won’t say no to a little glitter here and there, this might be your dream shoe. The Florence Mid Sparkle has a sleek, elegant heel, and those shimmery bows are adjustable so you can tie and style them exactly the way you want. The Florence comes in tons of non-sparkly colors, too, including blush, forest green, and black. And it should be noted that everybody who reviews this particular style/shape can’t help but mention how insanely comfortable these are. Love to hear it!
Faye Ivory Sparkle
Open toe? Block heel? Sparkly adjustable bow? Ankle strap with a cute, bejeweled buckle? We’re OBSESSED with the Faye Ivory Sparkle. We can see it fitting perfectly into a springy outdoor wedding—block heels are such a great way to avoid the dreaded moment when your stilettos sink into the grass. And this particular look comes in a non-sparkle ivory version and in black as well! We love the way the playful, vintage peep toe and ankle strap are blended perfectly with the more modern look of the block heel.
Stella Gold
We adore a metallic moment! Adding some flash and shine to your fit usually comes with some risk—the materials used to make cute metallic heels are so often super stiff and unforgiving (hellooooo, blisters). But that’s where Emmy London has it totally nailed. Carefully selected soft and breathable materials mean rocking this metallic moment pain-free. And the Stella comes in silver, too!! AND ivory, as well, for a more classically bridal look.
Harriet Ivory
The verdict is in: It’s hard to find a single review of the Harriet Ivory that doesn’t mention how stunning and comfortable they are:
“Beautifully made and very comfy.” || “Love these shoes. Beautiful and comfortable.” || “The perfect wedding shoe!” || “I am so happy with my wedding shoes and cannot wait to wear them on the day. They are beautiful and comfortable.”
How can you not fall in love with that timeless pointed toe or that ballerina-esque wrap-and-tie ankle strap?! And you KNOW a block heel is a recipe for a sturdy, supported feel. We can see this one shining in a modern-meets-garden party wedding or maybe with a tea length gown that shows off the ankle bow!
Faye Platform Ivory
This one’s for the brides looking for some serious height!! The Faye Platform is giving us fun, retro pinup vibes. The perfect heel for a wedding in a vintage venue! Or maybe paired with a short little elopement mini dress or reception look if you want legs for days? Don’t be intimidated by how tall these gorgeous heels are—the well-balanced block heel and platform structure makes for some seriously sturdy lift. Plus every pair is rocking cushion-y padded insoles. And yep, that bow is adjustable stretch satin, so you can get creative with it when you tie!
Florence Block Ivory
Everyone who’s bought the Florence Block Ivory heel has a serious crush. The reviews read like love letters:
“They are the definition of luxurious and dreamy. I wore them for over 12 hours on our wedding day and did not even change into my flats to dance, that is how comfortable my feet were!” || “These shoes are my dream wedding shoe and I cannot wait to wear them with my wedding dress and beyond! The excellent quality and comfort were obvious right out of the box.” || “Emmy’s Florence Block shoes were answer to my prayers, providing comfort and stability without sacrificing style. The shoes are chic and classic and you can dance in them all night. The block heel helps with balance and the soft suede means you don’t have worry about uncomfortable rubbing or breaking them in.”
Sounds like these are the pair to snag if you’re planning on dancing the night away! We love the pointed toe pump silhouette with that chic, open instep. All paired with the magic stability of the block heel. How cute would these be peeking out from under the hem of an elegant + modern column gown??
Claudia Bouclé Ivory
Sometimes you need a little texture! The Claudia Bouclé Ivory is made of a mix of woven fabric and soft leather and will literally mold to you: “The leather lining softens around your feet,” says Emmy London, “keeping you secure and comfortable on your wedding day.” We are so into that timeless straight heel. Can’t you just see these adding some dimension to a sleek and structured wedding suit??
Colette Ivory
The two satin straps of the Colette Ivory criss-cross in front across the top of your foot before wrapping around your ankle pointe shoe-style. From the reviews it seems like to own these shoes is to fall totally in love with them:
“Hands down the most beautiful pair of shoes I own! Absolutely lovely quality, feels like silk on my feet!” || “These are really pretty and comfortable. The foot area is wider than most pointed shoes so doesn’t feel tight and whilst high, not too high a heel.” || “These shoes are beautiful in person and so comfortable. || “There’s no doubt that these shoes are just stunningly beautiful but I can also confirm that they are SO comfortable. I wore them on my wedding day from 11am until midnight and didn’t need to take them off once. The satin ties are so elegant and I love the way the shoes can be laced up in various different ways.”
And they come in other colors?! The Collette is just as dreamy in terracotta, blush, and black. There’s even another ivory pair with cute flower petal embellishments on the toe 😍
Florence Misty Rose
You know that we can’t get enough of a wedding shoe that adds a burst of color to your look. This is Green Wedding Shoes, after all. That’s why we’re so excited that the Florence comes in Misty Rose. The fact that the satin bows are a lighter pink than the deeper blush of the suede of the heel is so sweet and romantic. It’s so easy to imagine these shoes looking stunning with a bridal bouquet packed with pink flowers of different shades.
“I adore my new shoes, and they are incredibly comfortable. This style is my favorite, and the hint of rose pops perfectly.”
And that’s really all you want when you go with a rosy bridal shoe, right? A perfect pop of pink??
We should mention that each pair of Emmy London shoes has a diamond embedded in the soles to make these special occasion shoes EXTRA special. One review mentions a super meaningful customization: “I had mine and my husband’s birthstones added on to the soles of the shoes which made them all the more special to wear on the day.”
PLUS! Emmy London shoes come in a “keep forever box” complete with shoe bags and wrapped with a shiny satin ribbon like the most glamorous gift you’ve ever gotten.
We are so relieved that every bride out there can rest easy knowing that they won’t have to sacrifice their style vision in order for their feet to survive the night!! Comfortable, hand crafted, and unbelievably cute. Emmy London has it covered!
