    I wear the same shoes with kilt hose as I do with dress socks. The shoes do fit a little more snugly with kilt hose, but not to the point of being uncomfortable. If you have another pair of shoes that fit the same way as the pair that you are considering for your wedding, try them with kilt hose for a comparison.

    Whatever you buy, do not save the shoes for your wedding. Wear them, even if only around the house, to get them broken in; all shoes will loosen up a bit and soften up after a bit a wear, and you want then to bend a bit with your foot when you walk. I was once on vacation with a friend who bought a new pair of walking shoes and saved them to wear while on vacation; after two days, the blister on her heel made it difficult to even wear shoes!
