I'm not really big on shopping. I might enjoy it more if I ever had money to freely shop, but even if I did I don't think I'd enjoy the act of shopping very much. I can do it for a little while, but if I'm out there for more than an hour or so I start to get annoyed - especially if I'm there against my will - and just want to go home. That's with

I hate shoe shopping too - I'm tall, and my feet are so large it's almost assured I won't ever find anything, especially not if I'm looking for something specific.

Good call on not taking the shoes that would have been uncomfortable - even one day is too much with badly-fitting shoes, you'd be torturing yourself and adding needless stress and pain to a day that should have as little of both as possible. :-) Plus, paying money for shoes that you'll never want to wear again makes no sense!

I'm not sure why your mother and Jean are so eager to have you wear heels, but as other commenters have said, there are some very very pretty flats suitable for bridal wear out there.

In the end, remember that it's really your choice, and what you wear is up to you, not anyone else.

I'd never thought about it like that before, but yeah I'd rather buy shoes I would want to wear again.

It's more my mom than Jean that's the heel obsessive. She thinks it's a wedding and you're supposed to wear heels to that, it's not proper without it, and she thinks the pictures will come out better, since Mike and I would probably be the same height in the right pair of shoes.

But, yeah, I have found far more cute flats that I like and given my difficulty to find anything, if I can find flats that work for me, that's what I'll do.

I feel you!
I have like 3 pairs of shoes I feel comfortable in and I seriously hate to go shoe shopping and I also hate high heels so I totally know the problem here *hugs*

Hope, you can still find something you like!

I don't have that much patience for shopping either. Wish it was easier to find a comfortable pair of shoes. Had some bad experiences with shoes. Oo But I agree about going for a small heel shoe and flats. Especially for the reception -- for dancing it's best to go for comfort or you could be going barefoot. Hope you find what you're looking for.

I definitely want to find some comfortable shoes for dancing.

Thanks.

I think it looks like the middle bone in your toe is missing. I had a friend that had a similar problem with almost all of her toes and I believe the solution was that they were surgically broken so it kind of relieved the pressure of being squished up to her foot. Sounds like a horror story, but it really helped her no longer have pain when wearing shoes.

My friend recently got married and bought a pair of heels for the wedding and then a pair of flats for the reception.

Interesting. I don't think my situation is quite as serious because the I don't have that much pain when wearing shoes.

The two shoes idea is definitely popular. If I go with getting heels, I might consider it.
