These "comfort" shoes are offered at The Lovely Bride....also in metallic and suede.
Any thoughts?
I will share with you my travels through the wedding planning process while I do my best to stay within a $3,000 budget (excluding our wardrobe and rings). Hopefully I can help, in some way, other brides who are also on a strict budget during this dreadful economy.
Oh, good luck! I will tell you that when I got married in the dark ages (1982) my parents didn't have a lot of money. My hubby and I were buying our first house - he didn't want to pay rent. I was the first grandchild on either side to get married and my father's only daughter.
ReplyDeleteIt was going to be a big wedding no matter what! Not counting our rings we did the whole thing for $2500. That included my dress. I found a lovely dress at a bridal shop; it just happened to be the former year's style. It was $75. My cake was a wedding gift. A friend did the catering as a gift - we just paid the wholesale cost for the food. We had the reception at a local firehouse; my hubby was a volunteer. I had silk flowers - no one noticed and they were half the price of fresh especially since I was married in February.
Oh, and there were 250 people at the wedding. And we served alcohol. People still talk about what a great party it was.
Some of the worst weddings I have been to have been those $20,000 extravaganzas.
It can be done and it can be done with style and panache!
I am definitely all about practicality and comfort over style (and pain). But I think those are just a little 'too casual' for my taste on wedding day. Are you going to get them?
ReplyDeleteUmmmm....that would be a definite "no". Just thought I'd share...lol!
ReplyDeleteHaha those are funny! (Sorry!) Not my taste at all; but that's coming from the girl who wore fabulous shoes who had a giant blister from them that lasted through the honeymoon!
