Progress report: 1529 words on the time travel last night. Need a Gaelic slang dictionary which shoes date origins of words. Also need pull out the costume book which is buried in storage in the garage.
How much do I love shoes? I’ll tell you. I covet them. I dream of them. I drool over them.
I’m so fanatical, I bought two pairs for the wedding. Right. Like I need TWO. But my reasoning is one is for the ceremony and one is for the reception. Because, hey, I may be on my feet a lot and I don’t want to be uncomfortable. Heaven forbid the princess has sore feet. 😉
The first pair, which you see here, is for the ceremony. It’s been Man Tested and Approved. He was with me the day I bought them, so I could testing the height and make sure I wasn’t too tall. They worked. I also bought a cute little silver purse. Why? No clue. Doubt I’ll need it but I wanted it and that was all that mattered in my book. 😀
The second pair is pewter flats. Because I need them, you see. I need them like I need a hole in the head but you know, it’s always good to be prepared.
Other purchases for the wedding: A tiara. Because what princess isn’t complete without a tiara? 😉
As someone who has production managed more of my theatre friends’ weddings than I care to think about, you absolutely needed those two pairs of shoes. You’ll need the flats for the reception, even if the heels are comfortable. Switch into them after the first dance, so the photographs of the dance show you in the heels.
Trust me, you’ll be glad you did. And you can wear pewter flats past the wedding for oh, so much.
Great choices.
Devon – I’m so glad I’m not insane about buying two pairs of shoes. I can’t wait to get the other pair. As soon as I do, I’ll post pictures. They’re great and you’re right – I can wear them after the wedding!
OOoooo!!! Nice kicks! And super idea about the second pair of shoes. I was basically barefoot my second wedding – and loved every minute of it. But I did put shoes on to go to and from the ceremony. 🙂
Did you see Tom’s Shoes sparkly shoes? I LOVE Tom’s Shoes, and the fact that every pair you buy means some shoeless person gets a pair too… well, that’s indulgence I can get into. 🙂
