Weddings are magical, and finding the perfect bridal shoes is essential to making your
day unforgettable.
In this post, we'll dive into the legendary story of the Greek goddess Aphrodite and introduce a stunning pair of wedding shoes inspired by her timeless beauty and love.
The Legendary Story of Aphrodite
Aphrodite is a major deity in ancient Greek mythology, known as the goddess of love, beauty, pleasure, passion, and procreation. She symbolizes not only physical beauty but also the deeper, more spiritual aspects of love and desire.
There are different myths about Aphrodite's birth. According to Hesiod's "Theogony," she was born from the sea foam produced by Uranus' severed genitals, which were thrown into the sea by his son Cronus. In another version, as recounted by Homer in the "Iliad," she is the daughter of Zeus and Dione.
Aphrodite is often depicted as a beautiful and eternally youthful woman. She is associated with several symbols, including the dove, rose, myrtle, and swan. The planet Venus, which is named after her Roman equivalent, is also a symbol associated with Aphrodite.
Aphrodite had many lovers, both mortal and divine. Her most famous lover is Ares, the god of war. She was married to Hephaestus, the god of blacksmiths and fire, although their marriage was not a happy one. Some of her notable children include Eros (Cupid), Phobos, Deimos, Harmonia, and Aeneas (with the mortal Anchises).
Aphrodite played a significant role in many myths and stories. One of the most famous is the Judgment of Paris, which led to the Trojan War. Paris, a prince of Troy, awarded Aphrodite the golden apple marked "for the fairest" after she promised him the love of the most beautiful woman, Helen of Sparta.
She was worshipped in many parts of the ancient Greek world, with significant cult centers at Paphos in Cyprus, Cythera, and Corinth.
In Roman mythology, Aphrodite is known as Venus. Venus inherited many of Aphrodite's attributes and myths but also developed unique aspects within Roman religion and culture.
Aphrodite's influence transcends Greek mythology, impacting art, literature, and subsequent cultural representations of love and beauty. She embodies purity, beauty, and divinity, inspiring countless artists and designers. Among them are the designers at Ouder, whose Smile Aphrodite shoes are specially crafted as wedding shoes for women, drawing inspiration from this goddess.
