Fashion experts say that shoes “make the outfit” because a good pair will not only complement the clothes you are wearing, but will also leave a lasting impression to other people.
For this reason, these celebrities who tied the knot with their significant others, decided to go all out in finding the perfect shoes for their special day.
To achieve this, they adorned their feet with the creations of high-end French fashion designer, Christian Louboutin.
For fashion enthusiasts, a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes is an absolute must-have. These shoes, famous for their red bottoms, are versatile and look exquisite when paired with any kind of outfit, be it casual or formal.
But for those who have the keen eye for fashion, they would know that these shoes do not come cheap.
Take a look at some celebrities who opted to wear a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes on their wedding day.
Marian Rivera
When A-list celebrity couple Marian Rivera and Dingdong Dantes got married on December 2014, it was the only thing that people talked about.
On her wedding day, Rivera wore a Michael Cinco dress made with French lace and studded with Swarovski crystals. The flower motif of the dress was made of laser-cut velvet and organza, Cinco wrote on Instagram.
To keep up with the extravagance of her dress, Rivera decided to pair it with Christian Louboutin Fifi Strass Suede Burma crystal pumps.

Toni Gonzaga
On her wedding day, many people said that Toni Gonzaga’s Vera Wang wedding dress looked simple, but they most likely failed to realize that she was wearing high-end footwear that day.

According to the website of Barneys New York, an American chain of luxury department stores, the price of Gonzaga’s shoes is pegged at $2,995.00 or about P157,000. However, the said website is now offering it at a lower price for $1,199 or about P62,900, though, it is currently out of stock.
Heart Evangelista
Heart Evangelista is known for being a fashionista and for her love of shoes. She probably owns a pair of shoe from every luxury brand, from Dolce & Gabbana to Chanel.
That is why when she got married to Senator Francis Escudero, she went the extra mile to find the shoes she will wear with her Grace Kelly-inspired gown. She wore a pair of customized Christian Louboutin Daffodile Strass platforms, which is identical to the one Marian Rivera wore, only with slightly higher heels.

Cristalle Belo Henares
Just like her mother’s wedding day, Cristalle Belo’s special day was a grand celebration. She got married to Justin Pitt in a fairytale-like wedding held at Villa Erba in Como, Italy.
She wore an Inbal Dror gown which featured lace, ivory tulle, pearls, Swarovski and Chanel crystals, and hand-made embroidery. It was reported that her gown alone cost at least half a million pesos.
