So you're getting married, and you have a strict budget... have you thought about your shoes? Cheap wedding shoes are an easy way to save money on your overall look.

With designer shoes costing hundreds of dollars, this part of your bridal outfit could easily add to the growing cost of the most romantic day of your life if you don't shop around.

However, you have plenty of options if you are looking to buy some nice shoes that won't cost you a fortune.

Consider getting shoes you can dye. While they tend to be associated with bridesmaids and high school dances, the bright white dyeable shoes can be dyed just about any color imaginable. But they don't have to be dyed!

Their satiny finish is beautiful by itself and can complement a white wedding gown quite nicely. In recent years, more and more styles of dyeable shoes have become available, and they are usually very cost effective.

A second option is to consider a discount shoe chain. Stores like Off Broadway Shoe Warehouse and DSW have huge selections of shoes that are always changing. These stores carry designer shoe brands at a discounted price, often a fraction of the full retail cost.

It's worth a couple of trips over the months leading up to your wedding. Because the stock is always changing, there's a great chance of finding your cheap wedding shoes there.

Third, consider your wedding style. You have a lot more options if you don't intend to have the formal, traditional wedding. Will your wedding be in the spring or summer, perhaps on the beach? Get some great silver or white flip flops.

They are very inexpensive, and they are so popular right now that there are thousands of options available. Don't forget to consider sandals or perhaps ballet flats, depending on the image you're going for.

Keep looking! You have lots of choices for cheap wedding shoes!
