I can't help on the dancing front but on pictures I think I have a few ideas.  Do lots of sitting down ones (or you in his lap) or even laydown on your tummies proped up by elbows and had pictues taken on you faces.  Or, if you want something fun (and you said you guy like to joke about the height diff) take a ladder with you and have some fun shotting pictures where you guys are the same height or you are taller (make sure you show the ladder so its fun and playful).

@ejs4y8... you would be suprised how we dont have a problem with other things ;) Thanks so much everyone for the support suggestions and comments lol....I think maybe we will just take a few practice runs... the issue is more of it being alkward or feeling uncomfortable or unnatural just on the physical side of things... not us being embarrased about how we look.   @sboston06--  Looking at your picture... your height differences is pretty similar to ours. I totally agree my man is just completely alkward  too he is all hunchback in most vehicles when he sits like in church he has a hard time because of his long legs. And bless his heart .... he has pretty much no clothes that fit correctly

Sometimes I wish we had a huge height difference! I'm a giant. *tromp tromp* We're both 6'3", so I'm not much help. :p

I'm with you ladies on the huge height difference thing! &nbsp;I agree that the easiest way to dance is holding the left or right hands together with the other wrapped around your man's back. &nbsp;As for photos, I have found that when I stand in front of my fiance and look back at him, he doesn't seem quite as tall as he usually does. &nbsp;By the way, I am 5'2" and he is 6'5". &nbsp;I usually wear 3"+ heels too, and that helps! &nbsp;

We have the same problem, my fi is 6ft3 and I am 5ft. isn't it funny how really tall guys often go for really short girls. I wear high heels all the time this pic is me wearing 4 inch heels and it looks ok

I found these great wedge flip flops at Victoria's Secret...they are very comfy and not like regular heels. I totally feel your pain.&nbsp; FI is 6'8" and I'm 5'2" and we get comments too.&nbsp; During your first dance, just focus on you and him and how happy you are together.&nbsp; Don't let anyone make you feel awkward on that special day!&nbsp; Here is a pic of FI and I together...we normally dance like this, with our hands holding and my hand around his waist.&nbsp; He puts his hand around or on my shoulder. If it helps you get more comfortable dancing, you can always take dance lessons...FI and I plan on doing that to get more used to each other.&nbsp; For such a big guy, he's kind of awkward and doesn't know what to do with extra long arms!

@FutureMrs.Harless - in that picture, you look like a little barbie doll!!  I love the one where you are standing on a chair and are still shorter!  Just wear high heels.  Anyone who knows you won't be surprised  by the height difference.  Embrace it!

I have the OPPOSITE problem of the rest of you.... FI is 5'6" and I'm 5'8". I'm wearing a completely flat (perhaps even slipper) shoe on our wedding day and I'm hoping that he can get a shoe with a thicker sole. We don't mind if we appear to be about the same height, but I definitely don't want to tower over him.

Wow! I wish I could help ... we're the exact same height ... I'll ask my aunt and uncle what they did to combat that ... they're about the same height difference as the two of you. And, like, ejs said, dancing is awkward no matter what... so no worries!

Wow, that IS a difference! DH and I are the same height, so yeah. Would you feel comfortable making a joke out of it? I can see how it would be uncomfortable to dance that way. What if you DID stand on a chair? Embrace your height, right? Or, what if he just picked you up? =]. You might as well embrace it and own it! Although i can see that if dancing is your concern, I can only laugh about other concerns you may have =]. And btw, dancing is awkward for everyone, so don't even worry about it! =]
