My dress arrived and the hem is a little long. The designer (after seeing photos of me in it with ~4.75" heels) recommends that I find an even higher shoe (rather than hemming it), as it will create a longer line and add to the "elegance" of it.
After seeing myself in it, I agreed. (I'm 5' 0; fiancé is 6'1.)
Photo #1: me in ~4.75" heels
Photo #2: me in 5.25" heels
Photo #3: 3" heels I own (I'd have to get it hemmed even shorter)
Sky-high Steve Maddens I'm considering ($60 on sale).:

Are there any other brides wearing sky-high heels? Is it worth it for the photos?
Or do you recommend just hemming the dress and going with 3" comfort??
FYI, I'm changing dress (& shoes) at the reception so I won't be in the same shoes all day.
And ... any styling tips for me? Veil? Birdcage? Jewelry? Undergarments? Thank you!
