    Hi ya - I am not sure about what shoes to wear on the day yet, I am 5ft 9 and my OH is about 6ftish so I might wear flats, but then again I love high heels and live in them the rest of the time so I might wear a lower heel, about 3inches or something. I think the best ever flats are available from French Sole, they are really beauifully cut so you can see the 'toe cleavage' which just makes them look much more delicate and somehow less sensible and more dainty and pretty! They are usually about £70-100 but you do get the odd sale on in Selfridges and House of Fraser and other dept store stockists and can sometimes pick them up for half of that. That said though they are gorgeous with jeans and skirts and look fab with tights if it's cold, so you'd probably get a fair bit of wear out of them afterwards. Let me know what you decide! ? xxx

    Thanks Katie!

    I'm 5ft 10 & my hubby to be is 6ft 1..I don't like being too tall anyway & def don't want to be taller than my hubby on the day so I'll either go with flats or a small 1inch heel, prob is my feet aren't very elegant so I don't like flat sandals or showing all of my toes Smiley smile lollll!

    I'm sure I will find something! Smiley smile

    Hope you do too!

    I hate it when I see really pretty sparkly shoes that are delicate and know I can never cram my big clod-hoppers in em! Still I figure at least one day I can hide them with a big long wedding dress!

    These are my shoes, Rainbow club. I'm having them dyed and I'm going to add a sparkly brooch or swarovski crystals to them. If you look on perditas wedding shoes website there is a section with wide fits.

    I'm having 3" heels for the daytime- my OH is only 2" taller than me but I loved the shoes! I'm considering flats for the evening and have my eye on these:

    Flats would be so comfortable with all the standing around you'll do!
