Are these shoes too clompy for a wedding?

I want some red shoes and can't wear anything too high these days (life's too short to be in agony from shoes these days, I'm too old, etc) but think pointy courts might look a bit old-fashioned with my dress.

I've seen these www.newlook.com/shop/shoe-gallery/view-all-wide-fit/wide-fit-red-suedette-ankle-strap-heels_515573260?tmcampid=75&tmplaceref=lower&extcam=UK_DRS_BRT_Criteo_DesktopDisplay&tmad=c&tmcampid=75

This is my dress and I'll be wearing it over a black slip dress and possibly bare (fake tanned) legs. Or can wear the metallic shoes in the photo? I just fancied red though.

Not my wedding, OCDmummy123 but lol at thought of me rocking up spouting "it's MY wedding and I'll wear what I want!" My friends, including bride, would be all Hmm but not massively surprised especially once the fizz goes down...

Dress is from Zara, bought in Sept.
I think the verdict from MNetters on the shoes is that half the wedding guess will be ewwwwww and half will love.

Red shoes.

I think those red shoes are lovely and will look fab with the dress.

I prefer the metallic ones, the red ones are too clumpy. I like metallic shoes anyway though but I like the shape of yours.

Love the red shoes. Would clomp my happy way anywhere in them if I could walk in heels. But sadly they do look too, er, assertive to go with that dress.

Get them anyway and find another dress to match them. Grin

Go red, the metallic ones are a bit mimsy.
