Problems finding shoes for big day!

I am having problems finding shoes for me. I got to order my dress in 2 months so I want to have shoes by then so they can have a good measurement. I'm planning on wearing the shoes when they take my measurement's so we can make sure its a good length with the shoes. anyway, I been looking around online and idk If I'm picky but I haven't found any I like under 200. I want some that are open toed with about a 4 inch heel. anyone have any suggestions? Thank You :)

    <div>Do you mean you want your shoes to order the dress or to start alterations?  To my knowledge, you only need them for alterations, <strong>not</strong> to order. When I ordered, they didn't measure my height. It's my understanding that the dress will come in one length and it's altered to your heght with shoes. I'm 5'2" and my dress would probably fit someone 6 feet tall before alterations :) Maybe it's different for other designers though?</div><div>
    </div><div>I had trouble finding shoes too. I found mine at David's Bridal (although I didn't see much of what you describe, so I wouldn't recommend it for you.)  Try small bridal boutiques or prom/formalwear stores. I found that the boutiques in my areas had some AMAZING shoes that fit what you're describing. Better than anything I saw at the well-known stores. Unfortunately, FI is the same height as me, so I couldn't rock the 4" heels! </div>

    I would want them for alterations, I am determined to lose 30-40 lbs by the big day so I know  as I'm losing weight the dress will fit differently.I will try some of the smaller stores for sure cause I've looked on a few of the more popular sites and didn't see much. Thank you :)

    [QUOTE]I found a lot of shoes I like at Nordstrom. You can also look at Zappos.com What color are you looking for?

     I actually looked at the Zappos site and saw nothing, I'm looking for some white satin open toe heels. Thanks :)

  • I am getting Angela Nuran shoes! They are made for dancers and are extremely comfortable. There are different styles and you can dye them. They are a little expensive but I have found new ones on Tradesy.com too! Google them. Extremely comfortable!

  • SO many cute shoes ladies. I agree that length is more important for alterations. I will be rocking the sparkly flats for my big day but my dress is an A Line ball gown so you cant even see my shoes for most of the day.

    Those were my wedding shoes. I absolutely LOVED them. However, word of advice, I wear a 7.5 wish I bought them in an 8, 3 hours in my dogs were barking. Normally I can suck it up for a glamourous pair of shoes but I really could not take it, there was that much of a difference in  the size. Also, If you get the heel pads that they suggest it does make the shoe more snug.
