help! tall bride shoes!

steelersnic314 · March 2011

Hey,
So I'm 5'11 and my fiance is 6'3. I would love to wear heels but I already paid extra to ge tthe extra length added to my dress and the max heel that I can wear without it looking like a flood is 2". Problem is I dont see any cute flat or low heeled shoes that don't look like grandma shoes! I need help finding a cute pair preferably under $100. Cant any of you ladies help me out?

How about these?

I also saw alot that were cute in different colors if you weren't opposed to wearing color.

I got my shoes at David's Bridal- they're only 2" because I just don't do heels. They were pretty comfortable- I had flip flops for the reception just in case, but didn't need them. Not sure what color you're looking for, but they're dyable. I see they also have a metallic version now. Here's the link:

Are you opposed to wearing ballet flats? They have some really cute ones now - you may even be able to find a pair with a peep toe if you want something that's a little open. If I weren't so short (under 5'2"), I'd probably have considered flats as an option and may even find a pair for dancing!

Here are some made specifically for bridal purposes:

thank you so much ladies! Lots of cute shoes to consider! I really appreciate all the help!

does anybody know how much it costs to dye the dyeable shoes?

steelersnic314 · March 2011

I'm not opposed to color. I would actually prefer to get pink or blue shoes. The heels I fell in love with and orginally purchased are actually a hot pink and look really cute with the dress but unfortunately my dress is too short for them.

I'll deifnitely look in these shoes or dying them! Thanks again ladies!

Not sure of the cost of dying, but from what I gathered it wasn't terribly $$ (at least not at David's).

I've found this site to be helpful: http://www.bridalshoes.com/
I have to get wide width shoes and will need to order online to get what I want. What's great about this site is you can order color swatches for $1 and also they offer a Try 'n Dye option which allows you to try on the shoes you want before they are dyed.
