Shoes: comfort or couture?

I’m going comfort since no one will see my shoes anyway

I'm actually planning both!

For the ceremony I found these beauties for $17! This image is from Amazon

Purple Heels

And then for the reception when my feet are tired I wanted to play more with my galaxy theme:

From Etsy.com

But Actually i'm wandering around Amazon now... since my theme is starry night / galaxy what if I went with a full on light up shoe?

SO MANY OPTIONS!

I wear size 12 and I find it a challenge to find dress shoe styles that I like and that are comfortable.

I’d always imagined myself in a long dress and barefoot sandals to allow for comfort, but I may end up with a tea length dress and I don’t think it will be conducive to the look and our venue.

Ultimately I’d like to wear a pair of chuck Taylor’s (it would match my personality too), but if I can find a comfortable pair of shoes in my size that also looks good I’ll do that.

For me, comfort trumps couture.

Very nice and glam!

I tried to go in between. I'm wearing nice kitten heel sandals. So they are fashionable but not too high. I'm also adding heel cushions, arch support etc. If it's too much for my feet I will do a plan B with there gold flip flops I found.

Both. They have a very couture took but they are comfy. My shoes are the high heels but they're also padded on the inside and actually fit my feel properly. We have 13/14 inches of a height difference between us so I need to make up a few inches so I don't have to jump for the first kiss.

I don't have mine chosen just yet but I am hoping for couture over comfort - I have a high arch on my feet so wearing flat shoes would be more uncomfortable than a heel. I'm thinking I will either go with a wedge or some sandals with a heel.

Comfort ALLL the way. I'm so informal. Having to wear a dress will be hard enough for me, gimme my runners! Plus, that's pretty much my signature. Ridiculously coloured gym shoes. 😂

Definitely comfort! I hate wearing heels so opted for shiny converse

I'm looking for the comfiest pair of dressy shoes I can find. I refuse to stumble, trip, or be standing their shifting my weight because my feet hurt...

If it was summer/better weather, I'd wear super glitzy sandals... but for January, I'm going to have to find a happy medium... I was totally thinking of wearing my Limited Edition Timberlands for my outdoor photos... haha... But I think I'll end up regretting those if they get in any photos...

Mine are definitely for the couture! But I went from a 5 inch heel to a 3 inch for comfort. I'm also going to bring a pair of flip flops (yup!) in case my feet get sore.

I definitely picked my shoes for fashion - to be honest I cared more about them than the dress but I was also smart in my decision by choosing ones that would comfortable (at least for me, but at 5'0 I find most heels comfy) by making sure they had a little platform in the front and not flat on the ground.

I hope to wear them the majority of the night but will have a pair of flats just in case for later in the evening.

Here they are
