I think they are "nice". hard to tell w/o seeing you and/or your dress, though.

No I don't think they are Granny Shoes at all! I think they'll be perfect for a wedding as they look really comfortable as well. Still, what do I know, I still insist on wearing the most ridiculous heels for things like that....who cares if I can't feel the middle toes on my feet for the next 6 weeks!

Go for it, they look good!

Um.... Not so nice I'm afraid. They look a bit cheap and grannyish. Sorry.

I'm not a fan of mid-high heels on sandals so for that reason, and that reason only, they wouldn't be for me. Otherwise they look appropriate for a wedding, esp if the colour goes with your dress, and if they're comfy on you, I don't see why you wouldn't go for them....

New Look do wide fit shoes/sandals. May be worth a look if you decide against those.

Next do wide fit shoes, and I recently got a pair of wide fit sandals from - whisper - Marisota and they are pretty nice. I don't really care for the pair you have there. There is definitely better available.

Very grannyiash, I am afraid. I have very very wide feet. Seriously they are nearly as wide as they are long !!
New look, especially their wedges are good for me:

They have a whole wide feet section, if that helps.

The new look ones look nicer, though far too weddingy for my taste, and they'll be hideously uncomfortable after a day (if in doubt, stick with leather!). Tis up to you op, I doubt either shoe will kill the outfit unless people are shoe-spotting all night :)
