Both dress and shoes play a critical role in your wedding. First, you should always try on your wedding dress with the shoes. Many dresses have a long train and are hard to walk with. You wouldn't want to trip at your wedding! The basic rules for buying the shoes are, you should have no difficulty walking in them, climbing stairs and dancing.
When it comes to heels, it's true that many women prefer a higher heel to give them the feel of sexiness, elegance and style. But, there are many low or flat heeled shoes that can have the same effect. If you insist on high heels, but are not used to walking in them, you should practice before the wedding in your house. And, if you are going with higher heels, make sure they are the most comfortable fit you can find. A sore foot would be no fun at your own wedding! Another thing you can do if you are definitely going to wear heels, is to bring a flat pair of shoes that you can change into at some point during the wedding.
If you gown is going to cover your feet, and you know for sure they will not be seen, then why not go with a flatter shoe? A few years ago, the trend was for brides to wear flip flops! And I know some who even wore running shoes!
