I work from home and have been wearing mine around the house to break them in and get used to having them on for long periods of time, but I'm thinking flip flops are a good idea. I've done this as a BM and suggested my BMs do it, so why not do it myslef??
BTW, can I please tell you how foolish I feel walking around my apartment all day in a hoodie, PJ pants and satin d'orsays? Hehe!
I haven't decided on shoes yet, but I know I am going comfortable. Did your flip flops make a lot of 'flip flop noises' when you walked around. I think the ballet shoes look comfy, but I hate the looks of them. Still looking for a cute pair of comfy shoes. Any suggestions?
haha the music was playing so i don't think anyone would have noticed flip flop sounds.
I'll definitely have some comfortable shoes on hand at the reception. I am hoping to find some that are the same height as the heels I get... maybe platform flip flops?? I don't know if those are actually comfortable. But, so far both pairs of perfect shoes only exist in my mind. :)
I think HumarockBride was talking about wearing Uggs to her reception. How comfy would that be???
I'll have short heels and a short reception. I think I'll stay with one pair.

I think I definitely want a pair of flip flops or sandals for the reception. No matter how comfortable my ceremony shoes are, I think I'm going to want something else so I can dance the night away! I'm glad I'm not the only one, Mrs. Bee. :)
I wore three pairs of shoes throughout my day! I had my highest heels for the ceremony and then switched into slightly lower heels for the reception but I also had these gorgeous lacy peep-toed flats to dance in, the best part was the lace on the shoes coordinated with my dress perfectly and I picked the lace ballet flats up at DSW for like $20 bucks!
My dress is long enough that I HOPE I can get away with wearing something relatively comfortable the whole time.
I'm changing into flip flops with a wedge heel...that way they aren't too too far in height from the heels I'm wearing earlier in the day. Don't want to be tripping all over the place. :o)
I have some cute Mary Janes for our ceremony (my FMIL isn't cool with me wearing sneakers down the aisle, but that's what the FI will wearing), and a cute pair of Etnies sneakers for our reception. I am ALWAYS in sneakers, can't wear heals, and want to be comfy. Our guests will be able to see my feet the whole time (my dress is just below the knee) and although I don't care, and my FI doesn't care, I don't want our guests to think I'm a wack job for wearing black sneakers with silver stars on them down the aisle!

@MrsLifeAccounts, was changing heel heights a problem w.r.t. to having your dress drag? Or with the bustle is it less of a problem? I hadn't actually considered multiple shoes, but it sounds like a great idea! I've been stressing between getting a nice long leg line and gorgeous shoes and being comfortable...especially b/c I intend to dance a lot!

I'm planning on having a change of shoes for the reception to save my feet from too much pain and suffering. I might go for a pair of comfy flats.
I'm a two shoe bride. I thought Fluevogs might feel a little restrictive for dancing so I got the TwoLips Talent as a backup.
I'm not sure if I'll change since I have yet to find my shoes. I love love love shoes though, so it may be an excuse to buy a second pair. :)
I wore thick soled flip flops as a bridesmaid. They were pretty uglpy, but kept me from tripping all over my dress as I was dancing, since my heels were 3" heels.
My wedding shoes are 3.5" and I really want the height since I'm a shortie. So I'm thinking that wedge flip flops might be a good idea, as long as they are comfortable. Has anyone found a cute pair of these?
I need to find something that gives me height and is comfy. I may do the ballet thing for the ceremony, but I am too short to dance with him in those!
I'm torn in the shoe department. I really want to have comfy shoes on the entire time but I also want to find the perfect pair of purple heels. Fashion or comfort? I just can't decide!
I have a comfy pair of shoes I've had forever that are blue and brown, close to the wedding colors. So I plan on wearing those at the reception if my heels start to bother me
I'm wearing ivory silk satin Badgley Mischka heels (picked up at Off Fifth for $40!) during the ceremony but then switching to professional ballroom dancing shoes in white satin that I added silk flower shoe clips on for the rest of the reception.
I figure if professional dancers can do crazy things in these shoes, then I can certainly shake my boody in them all night! 
I am wearing ivory strappy heels for the ceremony that I'm going to make cuter with a silk orchid. I also want a pair of bright yellow peeptoes to take some pictures in and then my "my feet are killing me, I can't be fashionable anymore shoes" are these from jcrew, in gold. http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Shop_By_Category/shoes/flipflops/PRDOVR~12499/99101667061/12499.jsp
Are they too casual?! I am getting married in Hawaii, but I am wearing a gown. I guess you won't really see them though?
My heels for the ceremony are like 3 1/2 inch heels....so i did buy some cute flats for the reception....although I'm worried about the whole dress dragging thing.
I would buy wedge heeled flip flops, but I swear any time I've ever worn that type of flip flop, I almost kill myself! I can't walk in them very well for some reason...

I have 3 1/2 inch heels, and then for the reception, I'm changing into 3 1/2 inch wedge flip flops.
I bought them on Victorias Secret website - and they are SUPER comfortable. I can't find them on the site anymore - but I did a search for the size heel I wanted on google and found them. I found a few other pairs as well, but these were the best deal.
Good luck!
Hi there, i wore nice shoes for the ceremony and then sketchers for the reception.
I'm planning on wearing heels for the ceremony (I'm only 4'11 3/4", I need all the height I can get!) but I'm searching for a pair of cute Mary Janes for the reception. Love me some Mary Janes!
I'm am not doing two pair of shoes- don't have the cash. Instead, I am opting for some reasonably priced ballroom dancing shoes from "Very Fine Dance Shoes". They have gotten good reviews from other brides and I can fancy them up with some DIY shoe clips.
Old Navy has some that are $3.50 - I saw them on this blog:

Otherwise, there are some pretty well priced wedding flip flops here:

I wore my flip flops during the reception, and can't imagine that I would have survived the entire night in heels.
Are you planning on changing into more comfortable shoes for the reception?
