When it comes to bridal fashions, Ann says, “I am seeing lots of brides design several pairs of shoes for their big day – a show stopping stunner for the walk down the aisle and photos; a more comfortable dance shoe for the reception; and a casual look for the send-off.”
Ann’s unique sense of style and love affair with footwear shows in every pair that delights the senses with her wearable works of art. http://annrothshoes.com/newstyles.html
“Brides are becoming more fashion-forward in their dress and shoe choices. I continue to see very unique, bright colors for custom designs.” notes Ann.

Ann Roth Shoes will bring different fabric, ribbon and embellishment options. Try on shoes, browse through the many design options and enjoy a free design consultation.

Let the love light shine! Our winning Engagement Story features 400 tea lights and a pajama-wearing Bride-to-be! CONGRATULATIONS to our Grand Prize Winner! Read Haley’s story:
It was a typical Saturday night for me, Ben (my fiancé), my roommate, and her boyfriend. Just watching movies hanging out on the couch. Being the lame school teacher I am, my bedtime is 9:30 EVERY night, and about that time, I headed upstairs to bed leaving them to watch the other movies. Ben had already planned for me to do this…SAD!
Anyway, around 10:30, Ben came into my room and told me to come to the window because there was something I really needed to see. (My room is on the top floor and the window overlooks an open field.) After blowing him off about two times because I was too tired to get up, he finally sternly told me to get up and look out the window.
I finally got up, and when I did, he pulled open the blinds, and below on the ground outside were 400 tea lights lit that spelled out “Will you Marry me?” I was still half asleep and as I turned around to ask him if this was for me, he was already on bended knee.
He asked those four words every girl dreams about…I excitedly said yes…in my pajamas!
