Walking in a Wedding Dress! Posture is key to looking great when walking - shoulders back, stand proud and walk slowly. To turn corners in a long train, you might need to gently sweep your foot to kick your train behind you so that you don't get twisted up. Test the shoes ahead of time to make sure you are comfortable walking in them.

Unsure what time to put on your invitations? While most guests know to arrive ahead of the ceremony, it is best to spell it out on your invitations. Wording like "Ceremony will begin at 3pm" should ensure you walk down the aisle on time, and avoids awkward latecomers.
