I can't wait to show him this! <img src="../my-plugins/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-smile.gif" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /></p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/heels-or-lifts-for-my-adorable-tom-cruie-like-fiance#post-248680 Sat, 04 Jul 2009 14:30:36 +0000 Miss SoonToBee 248680@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>oh holy crap. i know that this post is pretty much over but i told my fiance about this post and she asked if i would mind if she got them.

We have been eyeing that website. He offered the same thing when he saw the flats I had to choose from :) </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/heels-or-lifts-for-my-adorable-tom-cruie-like-fiance#post-241655 Sat, 27 Jun 2009 18:14:51 +0000 lisalulu 241655@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Hey bees! Thanks for your help. It is important for me to be tactfull and not &quot;zilla&quot;...heheh.</p> <p>My FI asked what I was doing today and I said &quot;shoe shopping&quot; because I need to start my dress alterations. I said that I am having a hard time because I don't want a really high heel. Then he sweetly offered, &quot;Do you want me to wear lifts or something?&quot; He's really great. He doesn't care about if I wear high heels or not, I just want us to look good in the pictures.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for all the input! :)</p> <p>Menstallshoes.com for the lifts! </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/heels-or-lifts-for-my-adorable-tom-cruie-like-fiance#post-241453 Sat, 27 Jun 2009 09:52:06 +0000 Miss SoonToBee 241453@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>yeah, i think this really has the potential to hurt his feelings. i mean, he probably already has a problem with being a shorter guy. i'm wearing flats (same situation) and while they're not my first choice of shoes for our wedding it will make us look a bit more balanced.</p> <p>my fiance would freaking pass out if i made that request...</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/heels-or-lifts-for-my-adorable-tom-cruie-like-fiance#post-241337 Fri, 26 Jun 2009 23:38:13 +0000 loveatfirstsightlover 241337@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Does he want to be taller than you or do you want him to be taller than you? If he doesn't care that you're taller, wear the heels you want and get over the notion that the man in the relationship has to be taller. If it really bothers you to have a shorter man, I'd definitely suggest finding an attractive lower heel rather than putting him in lifts.  </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/heels-or-lifts-for-my-adorable-tom-cruie-like-fiance#post-241307 Fri, 26 Jun 2009 22:47:53 +0000 Bamboo 241307@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I agree with the posts about not asking him to wear shoes with heels. My guy is only about 1.5-2 inches taller than me and I decided I will be wearing shoes with low heels. I know he doesn't want to be shorter than me and he would take a lot of flack for wearing man-heels. </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/heels-or-lifts-for-my-adorable-tom-cruie-like-fiance#post-241300 Fri, 26 Jun 2009 22:14:59 +0000 amandopolis 241300@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I also think that unless your fiance expresses a desire to be taller, you should wear lower heels. &nbsp; Telling him you want him to be taller will really make you come across as a bit of a -zilla. &nbsp; </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/heels-or-lifts-for-my-adorable-tom-cruie-like-fiance#post-241274 Fri, 26 Jun 2009 21:37:05 +0000 jhphi 241274@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I wouldn't make my fiance wear high heels to our wedding, just because I wanted to wear stilettos-- that would be really unfair to him.&nbsp; There are plenty of beautiful kitten heels and flats out there you could choose.&nbsp; Are you wearing a short dress?&nbsp; If not, your shoes will probably not even show.&nbsp; Is it because you like a specific shoe, or you just want the extra height?</p> <p>I would just tread carefully with this one, as it could really hurt your fiance's ego.&nbsp; Some men have a real &quot;thing&quot; about&nbsp;height, and feel that taller equals more masculine.&nbsp; Especially if he's on the shorter side, he may have a bit of a complex about his height, and may feel embarrassed if you ask him to wear lifts (I'm assuming he's clever and would see through the &quot;good for your back&quot; fib).</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/heels-or-lifts-for-my-adorable-tom-cruie-like-fiance#post-241242 Fri, 26 Jun 2009 20:50:52 +0000 lisalulu 241242@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I love mens tall shoes.com! But I need brown! Brown elevator shoes... </p>
