Hello,

Just curious whether you went with heels or flip-flops?  I'm having a hard time deciding...flip-flops would be much easier to walk in, but i love the height heels give me.  And I also love photos I've seen of the heels next to the bouquet.

What did you go with or are going with?

Our ceremony was actually on the grass overlooking the beach. The grass was very short and the ground was fairly firm. So, I wore heels for the ceremony and reception, but had wedge flip flops for the beach pictures and walking around before the reception and then put my heels back on later (inside).

Neither.  I wore sterling silver "barefoot sandals"  seen here:

I am wearing flip flops that have some height on them.  They give me like 2 inches...  I hope this means I will be comfortable as well :)

I'm going barefoot.  I haven't bought them yet but will have some nice flat sandles for when we make our exit.

I'm also wearing a wedged flip flop for the beach & I also have shoes for when we get inside.  I have a feeling I'll never put them on though.

I'm going with white wedges to give me the height of heels but more stability. I want to be a little more formal than flip flops and I also don't like how they sound. I guess I would recommend either wedges or an elegant flat sandal.

I am going with neither. I am wearing a ankle bracelet that is connected to a toe ring... I can't walk in heels (never learned how) and the flip flops will only be worn on the way to the ceremony site... I like to be different.
