Here are some tricks for both- the bride and the groom's side to ensure that they do their job well! After all, this competition is one that can really heat up!

Girl's Side
First up, delegate your team
Gone are the days when the only people stealing shoes were the girls- add your little cousins and boys to the mix as well. You'll be surprised at how good and fast they are! Plus, they can get under chairs and tables when things get dirty where your fancy lehenga might not allow you too.
Click a photo of the groom with his shoes zoomed in ASAP!
Right when he enters! That way you can show it around to everyone and they can recognise the right pair to avoid confusion!
Get the Panditji on your side!
If he's the girl's side Pandit, ask him to make up some ritual in the beginning which involves the boy getting his shoes off! That way you won't have to wait till the pheras!
Or maybe the groom's mom!
She's bound to be a little partial to pretty girls who are sisters of her daughter to be, and use that to your advantage!
Flirt, flirt, flirt till you succeed!
Now this is a trick not many of us think of using! Get your charm on and use it on the boy's cousins to melt their hearts- one of them is bound to crack!
Be careful of decoy shoes!
So this is a trick we see a lot of people from the boy's side use- especially if the girl's side isn't sure of the right pair of shoes. They might switch the pair with someone else's, which means you end up stealing the wrong pair of shoes! Here is when the photo you clicked will come handy!

Check the groom's sisters/cousins/friends feet too!
Yes, so another easy trick which a lot of people from the boy's side employ is to let a girl wear them and cover her feet with her lehenga- so be sure to be aware of that too!
Get the bride to wear them!
Once you've stolen the shoes, then get the bride to wear them- that's one place where they might not think of looking!
Or maybe someone aged
No one will suspect they are a part of the plan! Too intimidating!
Bring out the drama!
Start the emotional etyachaar whether you win or not- make the groom feel bad and use all the drama to mint him as much as you can! Use some nice emotional dialogues about how much you're gonna miss her sister!

Boy's Side
Delegate a team!
So a lot of people on the boy's side assume someone will take care of the shoes- and then lose out in the process! Delegate a team before hand to take care of the shoes!
Be super quick!
Swipe the shoes off the floor as soon as the groom takes them off- any delay and you might lose out! Or just make him hand over the shoes to you as he takes them off!
Do the old switcheroo!
After the groom enters- means, you've shown them which are the right shoes. Once he sits for the pheras, switch out the shoes with someone else's pair so the girl's side gets confused and maybe steals the wrong pair!
Let some girl with a long lehenga wear the shoes
Another easy trick- instead of hiding them somewhere, just let someone with a long lehenga wear them and sit all hidden under the fabric!
Or hide it in the wedding decor
The wedding decor has so many nice places for you to hide the shoes- just be careful.. there should be no eyes on you!
Give some 'shagun' even if the girl's side fails!
Now this is something that just cements the relationship on both the sides. Even if they are not able to get the shoes, give some money to make them happy- after all, they tried!
