Where can I find wedge heels?

Now that I have the dress, my next mission is SHOES! Does anyone recommend a specific store/website for a bridal shoe with a wedge heel?

I want wedge heels because I will be taking post-ceremony photos on the docks at Saybrook point inn, and I think a heel would get caught in the spaces between the boards on the docks. I don't want to risk falling on my face! :) But I don't want to wear flats either. So a wedge would allow me to get a bit of height, without having to worry about my spikey heels digging into everything. Suggestions are much appreciated!

    I love DSW if you have one near you- I've found so many good shoes there. Also Endless.com is my favorite shoe website b/c they have tons of inventory and free shipping and free return shipping! Good luck!

    Ditto for DSW!  Even check them out online.  Sometimes they have more online and the return/exchange process is very good!

    I splurged on my wedding shoes because I wanted elegant wedges, and I've found they either look clunky or too casual.  And I fell in LOVE with these shoes, so I told my Mom we had to find similar shoes without the designer price.  My Mom, being the generous person she is, bought them immediately and had them shipped to me.  I'm so excited!

    Badgley Mischka "Lyndee" - I got them in Rose but they also have a light Cream color, too.

    I had a backyard wedding - so similar problem I didn't want to sink into the grass.  I ended up buying 2 pairs.  One pair of stilettos for indoor pictures and a pair of wedges for the ceremony.  I actually had a friend find them the day before the wedding! :)  The wedges were Rampage from Macy's, size 9 1/2 (see below).  I bought them for $50 but I'd sell them for $20 if you're interested.  

    Good luck shopping!

    These are gorgeous! I might have to look into them, probably in the cream color. I agree with you, wedges always seem too clunky or too casual (like flip flops). Finding the perfect shoe might be harder than finding the husband... ;)

    David's Bridal has a great pair that can be dyed any color:

    For my wedding, I used an Etsy seller who dyed and hand-painted mine.  They were so unique and came out amazing:
