Not Wearing Heels On My Wedding Day-- Anyone Else?

Danielle, on May 16, 2012 at 11:05 PM

Posted in Wedding Attire 51

I have decided that I will walk down the aisle in a cute pair of flat shoes. FH is not that much taller than I am so I would be taller than him if I wear heels. However, I thought about buying heels for some of my pics with my girls & by myself......

    YAY! I am wearing flats too. I'm a tall girl (5'9 or so) and my FH is only about half an inch taller than me. Rather than look like I'm marrying a small child, or that I am an Amazonian Monster, I'm wearing these beauties. I love them. The blue ones are for the ceremony and the beaded ones are for the reception (and the Catholic ceremony here at home before the DW in PR a week later).

    I'm wearing flats as well. I looove heels (slightly obsessed) so it kind of bums me out. But I don't want to be taller than my FH.

    @Danielle F: I was thinking of buying some too just to take pics with my girls in (and for an excuse to buy more heels!)

    I am wearing ballet flats. I'm short and loving being short and having FI towering over me. Smiley smile

    I'm 5'3", DH is 6'5"- I really wanted to wear heels, and bought the cutest little shoes. I also bought flats for the reception. Oh well, yay for good intentions. I wore the little heels for the first look pics, and then went barefoot the rest of the day. Wait til you see the pics of the wedding "kiss"--it looks like he's bending over to kiss a 9 year old. LOL. Be comfy!!! Can't stress that enough.

    I am wearing silver flat sandals for our beach wedding in Jamaica, and I am getting custom converses made for our US recepetion. You can't see my shoes and I am all about comfort. FH isn't huge on me wearing heels anyway for some reason haha even though I am 5'2 and he is 6'0 so I decided against it.

    Flip flops here too, I have very weak ankles and what a memory it would be for me to sprain my ankle walking down the isle!

    Our whole wedding will be in grass so no heels for me! Plus I'm 5'9, so I don't wear heels a lot and nothing over 2.5 inches. FH is 6' and I have no interest in being taller than him in wedding photos lol. I found wedge 1 in heels that were dyable satin and added rhinestones myself. LOVE THEM!

    I'm taller than FH so I'm wearing flats for the ceremony. But recently I decided for my pics with my girls I may get a pair of red heels so we can do some shots with our shoes.

    I wore silver flip flops with a back strap (beach wedding). The dress was so long, no one would could see them anyway, but I wanted them to be cute in case Smiley smile

    I am wearing a small heel during the ceremony and switching to flats for the reception. I want to be comfortable and be able to dance during the reception.
