Geeeee I'm struggling to find bridal shoes and cannot find anything ' comfortable' ( I'm 59) wearing a traditional dress. Low block heels not comfy, nor flats... the only 2 comfy ones are these... but are they too frumpy ?? Advice appreciated thank you

I did try the platform ones they were lovely but a little narrow unfortunately... but I'll take another look thank you 😊

One sexy pair for the photos
One comfy pair for the party

One of the wedding party gets charged with looking after the carry bag.

Ps congrats

Try ballroom dancing shoes from a dance wear shop for the reception - the soles might not be a good idea on concrete if part of the wedding or photos are outside but they are comfortable for dancing in. Lots of T bar designs and enclosed heels and caged/enclosed toes so they stay on properly without shredding your feet. Usually have heels but fairly low ones.

I'm almost 59 and getting married next month. I got my shoes from here. Yes they are comfy but stylish too. I am also wearing a traditonal dress.

I'll echo this suggestion. Comfortable, but elegant too.

You could easily have the soles adapted/strengthened by a cobbler (especially worth considering if the soles are suede and you plan to wear outdoors for any length of time/if you'd like to wear them again).

Rainbow Club are good and there are quite a few on Vinted, both new and worn once.
