My Shoes have arrived!!! UPDATED WITH PHOTOS

After seeing a suggestion on here about Le Soulier bespoke handpainted shoes I kinda fell in love with them. I'm not a shoes girl really, and all the shoes I've ever bought all together probably cost less than these shoes (I never usually spend more than £20 on shoes, and am lucky if I buy 2 pairs a year!), but I'm completly in love with them. The agreement was that I could have them if I sold my GHD's and hair curlers that I no longer use (shhh, don't tell my H2B that I haven't done this yet!!)

So my shoes arrived today, they have our flowers on them, and the date our our wedding and our names on the back. It has Mrs Durrans (that will be me!) on the side, and on the other side it has a picture of our church (my MIL2B is a vicar and is marrying us so it's her church) and a frog (my nickname is Froggy).

I haven't managed to transfer photos onto the computer yet, but when I do I'll upload them on here for you all to see.

SQUEEEEEEEE!! I has pretty shoes!

    They are AMAZING! Do you mind me asking how much they were? I'm SERIOUSLY considering pimping my shoes now! I'm thinking old skool sailor tattoos and maybe an OCTOPUS! ?

    Oh my word, I think these are lovely!!! Really tempted but feel a bit scared about what you said about the price, if you don't mind me asking, how much did they set you back? Thanks X

    Kjay - those are shoes that she's previously done if you find her on facebook she's got loads of pictures on there

    They are expensive...they cost me £187 (P&P included), and you have to provide your own shoes...mine were only £14 from next in the sale at Christmas and my brother bought them for me

    As I said I don't often buy shoes so these were my big extravagance for the wedding, but I'm totally in love with them and think they're worth it! After the wedding they're going to sit on top of my mirror in the living room along with my grandpa's bowler hat and my trilby...it'll look awesome!

    Eeep! That's a *teeny* bit out of my budget (aka A LOT) considering my shoes already cost £60 alone (only cos I'm too lazy to shop around!)- oh well, I've emailed them anyway. I'll see what they say!

    No taking away from the fact that yours look LUSH. ?

    I was looking at this website yesterday. I really want some different shoes for my day. I see them as the thing I can keep after, I'm not going to have much use for a big white dress! Can I ask what material your shoes are? Also how easy was the process, did you provide ideas or did she just come up with a design for you? Thanks

    I'm so glad that I didn't know about this before I bought my shoes. They are beautiful.

    Hi, they're great but I met gemma kenward at a wedding fair and she quoted me £120.00 and her shoes are more classier than the shoes above (not that they aren't fab too) she's worth a look too

    Looking at her website the shoes she uses look incredibly cheap.

    I think it's great to have something so personal to you, and totally worth it if they are your only wedding splurge!

    I have to buy the shoes and send them to her to get them personalized. I got a pair from Faith so no cheap shoes there
