hi all, we are getting married july 2011, in an outdoor ceremony and hopefully the pictures will be taken on the lush grass. i have ben looking for heels but feel this would not be appropriote - heels getting stuck in grass etc. what about wedges? or any other suggestions?
CommentAuthormrsquinn2b
I don't think heels would be a good idea, like you say they will sink in the grass and could get messy! Wedges would be good, they won't sink on the grass and still give you the look of wearing heels, as all us girls want! xx
CommentAuthoramie23
i soppose they would be more comfy, just havnt seen any nice ones yet. also, do they really need to be white if they will be under a dress and not seen?
CommentAuthorMelly
We're going to be outdoors for the entire day when we get married, i've decided i'm going to be wearing my wellies. Safest thing for me. xx
CommentAuthorwelshcerys
I am thinking about getting some wellies as even though we are getting married in August we are also having a marquee in a field so wellies will be a must I think!!! Hopefully I will be able to get some purple ones by then
Wellies would be soo cool Melly, are you going to try and find special white ones? Then you could personalise them? Like write your married name on them and stuff!! Or stick diamantes on them!! xx
CommentAuthoramie23
hopefully in july we will not need wellies lol
CommentAuthorpouchi-loo
i think wedges would work well, if not just get some realy pretty flat pumps
CommentAuthorMelly
I was hoping to find some, that write 'just married' like you can get the flip flops, but as yet i havent been able to find any. (i'm thinking about trying to create my own). I'll going to be wearing my favourite pink glittery wellies, but may buy some of the special white ones as well. xx
CommentAuthor~* Jen *~
I'd get overly excited about decorating white ones!!
An idea you could do at the end of the evening with special white ones is to get everyone to sign it, kinda like a guestbook, but something else as well as one!! xx
CommentAuthoramie23
has anyone seen any nice wedges?
CommentAuthorMelly
Thats a nice idea, to get everyone to sign them at the end of the night. They'd then look like a good 'ornament' in my living room. xx
CommentAuthorSuzi
Ive posted a couple of links on your wall amie!!!
Do not disturb... Already disturbed enough!
CommentAuthorVx Debz xV
Cerys check around when schools go back in Sept, there's always colurful wellies around then!
CommentAuthorVx Debz xV
I just had a thought.... Medical supply shops will have White wellies, as they're used in theatres of hospitals!!
CommentAuthorVx Debz xV
Have posted some links on my wall for welly suppliers :)
CommentAuthoramie23
thanks everyone
CommentAuthoramie23
ooh i have just seen some lush wedges that i could also use after the wedding which is a bonus! havnt bought them yet but im very tempted
CommentAuthorCarolanneJune
what about some pretty gladiators
CommentAuthormrsmada
i was gonna say wellies. ppl wont expect to see wellies under a wedding dress and its a bit cool and quirky, summit for ppl to talk about xx
CommentAuthoramie23
ooh never thought of gladiators. interesting! i wore wellies as a bridesmaid when i was about 3 as i absolutely hated dressed (still do) and this was the only way they could get me to be a bridesmaid. mum didnt see the funny side but we all laugh about it now
CommentAuthorhollyjt1985
You can get these little things that slot onto your heel with a circle of plastic on the bottom which is alot larger than the heel and it stops the heels sinking in the grass. I know ppl that have used them at ascot. x
CommentAuthoramie23
wow never heard of them, will have to look
CommentAuthorlala "mod" bunni
flip flops or bare feet ....... no sinking then !!
I still think wellies, and some of the white ones are lovely, can double up as a guestbook too :)
CommentAuthorwelshcerys
Oooh Holly they sound like a fab idea!!! And am also loving the idea of white wellies for msgs!!
CommentAuthorMrswright
a site where you bid has some really nice white wedges i have just ordered some for myself as i will want to change from my heels
CommentAuthorOfficially Mrs Nicol
i'm thinking on wearing boots under my dress.. lol, i thot whos gona be looking at my feet? lol... but wedges sound like a good idea... :)
CommentAuthorCeCe
...just had a thought re decorating wedding wellies...you could hole punch around the top and thread thru pretty wedding coloured ribbons!
CommentAuthorEriksfjord
What about wedges or wellies the same colour as your theme if you don't want white!
CommentAuthoramie23
i had a look at shoes today and saw these flipflop wedge style things, they were very comfy, not very high tho so i will keep looking
CommentAuthorOfficially Mrs Nicol
CeCe...lol that sounds like a great idea.. i mite just do that.. lol
CommentAuthorrainykins
I'm going for the customised trainer look :) (just undecided on make still)
CommentAuthoramie23
i had a discussion with the other half last night and he said i should get comfy ones, this coming from the man who usually helps me pick 5 inch high heels i can never walk in just because it makes my legs look nice lol. so may pop to the shop and try on more shoes
CommentAuthorVx Debz xV
You can actually get wedge wellies :)
CommentAuthorlizzyleek
You can get things called heel stoppers for about £5 they stop you sinking into mud/grass etc x
CommentAuthorL JO
You can get 'wedding trainers' on ebay and I also saw some white dr martins with white embroidery stiching on them aswell x
CommentAuthoramie23
thanks, ill check that out
CommentAuthorMelly
Oh wedge wellies, sound interesting. xx
CommentAuthoramie23
i obviously hav not done enough shoe shopping, there are so many things i didnt know lol
Melly I have links posted on my walls for different Welly sites, all different styles and varying prices! I loved the wedges!
CommentAuthorGem
Hi Im getting married in july and we are having a blessing outside, the whole wedding is having a beach theme as we met whilst working abroad so im going for bare feet or flip flops, seen some amazing jewlery for feet aswell to make thm pretty!!!wellie sound like a very cool idea!
CommentAuthoramie23
sounds fun gem, im sure i will be bare foot by the end of the day lol
CommentAuthorKizzy81
I got wedges for my bridesmaids as we're having a marquee reception. I'm going to wear flat pumps - no one can see your shoes anyway - most they see is the front toe, and if you're getting married in a church they will see the soles...
CommentAuthorKizzy81
There's always the Heel Stoppers someones mentioned...
