You've been invited to watch your friend tie the knot, and the invitation clearly states that it's going to be a beachside affair. Finding the dress shouldn't be that difficult — you can never go wrong with a maxi — but shoes can be a struggle. While you certainly could get away with wearing a wedge to an oceanside wedding, you'll likely end up being an armhanger . . . someone who cannot let go of their date's arm for fear of careening over and plummeting into the sand. Play it safe and stick to sandals. You'll get tons of compliments, you'll be able to stand on your own two feet, and you'll be able to wear them throughout the season.
