Did anyone manage all day in heels and if not what did you swap into? I wear heels at work which I'm fine with but then I'm not on my feet all day. I've got a feeling on my wedding day my feet will be in pain by the evening! I don't want converse to swap into as I'm really not a trainer wearer, just wondered if people had any other ideas? I'm a pain with my feet as have really high instep so I struggle to get comfy shoes. Any recommendations?

Yep all day in heels and I don't often wear them. My shoes were from Next and were so comfy.

I went most of the day in heels. They were off in the evening and I didn't change into anything. Lol. But everyone who knows me knows I do that anyway...! You could just get some pretty dolly shoes. That's what I was going to get. X

All day in heels and I don't wear them often. I bought ones with really comfy cushion insoles and broke them up for weeks before the wedding. Every time my husband was out the house I'd put them on and walk around it them

I am so bad with heels. I never last on nights out. I lasted the majority of our wedding day. They started to ache just before dinner during photos and stopped once I sat down to eat. Then they ached a little after food. But again I sat down for a bit between food and the evening party. I only kept them on for the first dance/father daughter dance and the first song that played after them. Then the shoes came off and I went bare foot!

I swapped into lacy converse just before the first dance! Had rainbow shoes though (google them!) which came highly recommended and I could have worn them all day! X

I had high heels and bought a pair of flat ballet style pumps to put on during the reception. I was so relieved as by the time I had an opportunity to put them on I already had blisters on my feet. (My shoes felt comfortable and I think the general excitement of the day meant I didn't notice how bad they were hurting until I removed them.) the ballet pumps were so comfy and I've worn them again so not a complete waste of money.

I struggle in heels because of an old foot injury so heels make my feet swell and throb my plan is to get a very small heel and just take them off once they start to hurt, I don't mind walking about in bare feet, I'm even tempted to take my slippers

Im ordering a really nice pair of slippers for next to change into once were at our wedding breakfast and most posed pictures are taken. I'm also buying some one then cheap white spa slippers for my wedding party to put on if their feet hurt. They the cheaper than flip flop and I might even jazz them up.

I want to wear heels but me and my fella are the same height and I don't want to be towering over him in the photos! So it's flats for me I think xxx

I managed to wear heels all day apart from two hours before the end and then swapped to dolly shoes. If you want to know the brand of the heels I had then please message me, as they were so comfy!!! Xxx

I spent the whole day in embellished converse as did my bridesmaids! Our dresses were all floor length or longer and comfort meant more to me for us all that pretty shoes and it became a talking point during the dance :)

I'm just going to get some nice dolly shoes to wear. Will try on some and probably find them nearer the time.
