Hello brides! I’m getting married next year at a winery so I was very set on wearing flats because 1) heels are so uncomfortable for me and I don’t want to be miserable all day bc my feet hurt 2) the grounds of our venue would be hard to walk in with heels and 3) I don’t want to be taller than my FH. BUT, the issue I’m having is that everyone is telling me that I need to wear heels because flats will ruin the look of my dress. I’m 5’4 so I’m not that tall. I’m worried that if I wear flats, I will look short and stumpy whereas heels will make me look elongated - if that makes sense. I’m so conflicted on what to do. I thought maybe wearing a block heel for the wedding would be a bit more comfortable than a stiletto, but IMO, flats will always be the most comfortable option.
Anyway, I guess my question is... is it true that wearing flats will affect the way I look in my dress? Will wearing at least a 2-3 inch heel make me look nicer? At first I thought my family was crazy but now that I think about it I think I understand what they mean. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
