I think you should wear the ones that you got! They don't really sound that bad and 2.5" isn't terribly high. That is what I would do. Just take em off if your feet start to hurt, no one will even notice probably.
Or you could do something really different like me.
I am bringing some matching tennis shoes that match the ones the groom will be wearing. That is actually where we got the idea for our colors! A pair of orange and blue onitsuka tigers.
Haha thanks! It was totally his idea. Here are some pics of the shoes, since I wont have acutal wedding pics for over a year!
Hmmm...I chose the ballroom shoes, but I'm a little torn. Have you walked much in your ceremony shoes? If they seem comfy, stick with those. I'm a two shoe bride, but I'm going almost 2 inches lower for the reception which is why. My dress maker is making the petticoat adjustable so I can get away with this.
A lot of people tell me the adrenaline is so high you won't notice your feet. I don't want to take chances, though.
The way my dress poofs out, I will be okay if I get a shorter heel. It won't drag on the floor too much...
OMG. Those shoes are fantastic!! I hope that you seriously do that! That is not really my and my FI's style, but that would be so fabulous to see another member of the 'hive do it!

So, I've played it pretty safe with my bridal shoes. I'm wearing a 2.25" wide width pump under my dress.
However, I wore so many heels back in the day, that I have to be careful what I do now.
So, I have a couple options. What do you think?
Options:
Ballroom Dancing Shoes:
PRO: They have great support, FI and I will be doing quite a bit of swing dancing, I know I will wear them again to dance, and some of the styles aren't so bad.
CON: Expensive option, they don't come in wide widths, and I will have to get at least a 2.5 in heel which is higher than my regular shoes
Kitten Heels:
PRO: They have them in a 9wide, which is my true size, they're low, its less complicated to order them, they're 1/2 the price of the Ballroom dancing shoes
CON: I will never wear them again, the styles aren't all that cute, they don't have much support, I may have to get them dyed, they may flip off my foot when we dance unless I find ones with an ankle strap
Something else:
Is there something else I'm not thinking of? I know I cannot wear flip flops. They just won't stay on my feet for very long!
Just wear Pair numero uno:
Seriously, when push comes to shove, am I REALLY going to want to change my perfect shoes I originally got? Will I really be standing for that long that I could be in that much pain? Am I just going to waste my money?
Alright, give me a vote, and let me know what you think!! You ladies are wonderful!!
