Changing dresses for reception..?

Is anyone planning on changing into another gown for the reception? I had originally planned on staying in the same gown. The problem is that I am so short, 5'1"and most gowns that I like require extremely high heels so that I don't look like the dress is wearing me. I cannot possibly wear...

Is anyone planning on changing into another gown for the reception? I had originally planned on staying in the same gown. The problem is that I am so short, 5'1"and most gowns that I like require extremely high heels so that I don't look like the dress is wearing me. I cannot possibly wear skyscraper heels for more than 2 hours so I thought of possibly changing into a shorter dress and more comfortable shoes for most of the reception.

Is anyone doing this? If so, at what point during the reception are you changing gowns? Help!!!

    I will be changing dresses after all the pics are taken and the big dances are done I will sneak away and come back ready to dance. i was even thinking about having the DJ announce me coming back ready to dance. IDK how just yet but I think it will be a fun idea.

    I think I paid a lot for my dress, so I would like to wear it as long as possible. But I am not used to wearing heels and may not even get down the aisle in them lol. So I am thinking I will bring a dress as back up and change if I just can't wear it anymore.

    I have a two-in-one dress, so I'll just take off the over skirt, and will have a nice cocktail dress perfect for a reception
