Emergency shoe help!

Am at a wedding this weekend. Outfit sorted as went to one earlier in the summer.
But have just spotted (in the smallest print known to man) on the invite that it says
“While dancing shoes are obligatory, the reception venue kindly requests that stiletto heels are not worn, to avoid damage to their floors”.
All of my shoes are kitten heels-small stiletto like heels (but not high). Will this matter?!
I have zero time to find new shoes, I have notoriously terrible, hard to fit feet. And anyway-WTAF am I meant to wear if narrow heels are out?!
I have to wear tights, dress is shortish and my legs are an abomination (I ride horses, they are neon white, mottled veins and covered in scratches and bruises). So closed toe shoe essential. Can't wear any sort of closed heel-just slingbacks that are adjustable and nothing higher than kitten heel due to buggered knee.

Help!

I was all relaxed about it until I spotted that!

Low block heels a very fashionable if you have the time / inclination to search them out?

Or you could pretend you haven’t seen it and just dance while balancing on your toes. Sure you won’t be the only one!

You need something like these
I once went to a wedding and the venue handed them out.

Thanks all :)

I have ordered some of the cleanheels via Amazon, so if they arrive in time I will take them with me.

Otherwise I'll be denying all knowledge and if necessary taking my shoes off and walking around in my tights!
