A Store That Sells Women’s Boots And Bridal Shoes

Wedding planners are well known these days, but I’ve developed a career centered on just one aspect of the event: dressing the bride. I’m the only one offering this service in Birmingham and I draw clients from smaller surrounding towns as well, so I have enough business to keep me busy. The one challenge I have working out of Birmingham instead of a bigger metropolis like New York City, is a shortage of decent women’s shoes stores. We don’t have the fancy boutiques that the really big cities do. That’s not as big a problem as it sounds, though, since I can order all my bridal shoes from shoeocean.com, an online store that carries every kind of footwear from women’s boots to sandals.
Bridal couture has always been an interest of mine and eventually I just fell into doing this professionally. After a few weddings, I decided to focus specifically on the fashion element and leave the organizational elements to others. I could care less about cake, but picking the perfect dress is a challenge I can appreciate. At first, I was in a bit of a panic over the lack of footwear choices in the area, but that website I found took care of the shortage pretty quickly. Many people were surprised that a place selling so many women’s boots would carry such a selection of bridal shoes (not to mention accessories like handbags), but once I fired up the laptop, they’d be quickly convinced. Shopping online makes my job a lot easier too. It’s so much easier to compare different pairs of shoes when you can see all the choices side by side in photos, instead of digging through boxes and lining the things up.
Of course no job is perfect and the dark side of mine is having to deal with the groom to be. No Women boot a guy out of a relationship faster than the girls whose fianc? gets in the way of buying that perfect wedding gown, so one of the more important parts of my job is to make sure the groom to be is kept far away during this entire process; baseball tickets, passes to the drag races, a case of beer, or whatever is needed. He can see his bride and admire her dress at the wedding, but he doesn’t need to know a thing about it before then.
You’ve never seen women’s boots wear down faster than on a determined bride who marches store to store on a mission to find the perfect wedding dress and I’m happy to be part of it.
