Presenting a homegrown edit of shoes so that you don't miss out on any pair that's stylish and fun!

2025 brides, if you are on a hunt for a pair of wedding shoes that fit you just like Cinderella's...you are in the right place. At Manifest, we understand the power of good footwear that helps elevate your unique style. Just like your lehenga, handbag, and make-up—shoes make for an equally important part. They might get hidden under your lehenga or sari, but they still hold the power to pull your look to the T.
After all, there is nothing quite like the feeling of slipping into a pair of shoes that you know is the one.
From pointed-toe pumps to juttis and sleek, strappy-heeled sandals to single-toe wedges... Ahead, we list down underrated homegrown bridal shoe brands that you must consider as you cast a wide net to make sure you aren't missing out on anything glittery, comfortable, and stylish.

CAI has been fairly present in the bridal footwear scene and has earned rave reviews for its stylish yet comfortable repertoire of shoes. For 2025 brides, we have good news for you. The homegrown label has introduced its Bridal Edit which has something for everyone. These shoes are handcrafted and are adorned with intricate pearl and zari embroidery. From sturdy block heels to stylish wedges, and supportive toe-rings—CAI offers a variety of heel styles which are graceful and comfortable.

Welcome to the world of customisable footwear where the brand offers bespoke services allowing brides to personalise heel heights and colours to match their style and needs. Here you'll find contemporary styles with a traditional flair. Their bestseller collection features wedges, block heels, and Kolhapuri sandals offering many choices. Their colour palette includes gold, silver, bronze, nude, and black, hence you know you can get your hands on something for every occasion.

This list would have been incomplete without a wine-red slingback that makes for a perfect pair of shoes for a bride-to-be. We love the chain detailing that lends it a dressier finish. Check out this label if you prefer pointed-toe shoes and pumps. And if you don't prefer heels, they have an amazing collection of flats which are in soft pastel colours and are bejewelled too!

Featuring a colour palette of traditional hues like gold, silver, and ivory, as well as contemporary shades such as blush pink and pastel blue. You know something will match your moldboard for sure! Our recommendations from Eridani's bridal footwear collection would be their Zara juttis featuring detailed floral embroidery. Eridani also offers customisation options, allowing brides to personalise their footwear.

If you are an aware fashion girlie, you know nothing beats Needledust regarding their juttis. And what is a wedding attire without a pair of resplendent juttis like this? Our recommendation from the brand would be their collaboration with Delhi-based designer Abhinav Mishra. Adorned with mirror work, a classic Abhinav Mishra style trait, these juttis come with the comfort of Needledust.

The good ol' jutti receives a modern makeover with a height of precisely 2.5 inches. This pair of White Lotus Heels features nakshi and patti work in leather. The floral detailing makes it versatile to be paired with all your ensembles. In case, you want to gift this to a bridesmaid or a bride-to-be, then may we say the pair of shoes also comes wrapped in a gold foiled box.

Mary Janes has made a comeback and Aprajita Toor's latest collaboration with digital content creator Scherezade Shroff has reimagined the classic silhouette by making it look and feel luxurious. Made out of velvet, this blush-pink pair has a non-slip sole and is handcrafted.
