Try Charles Clinkard - lots of different makes on their website.

I'm on a roll now with this shoe question ... grin

I remembered that I bought a pair of shoes recently for a "do" where I would need to stand, and shoes with a slight platform on the ball of the foot are often comfy because then you are in effect not wearing a heel. Anyhoo, I came across these in our local Debs and they are super comfy, the straps across the foot and on the slingback are elastic, they come complete with bling:

They also had them in cream.

I've just looked at Van Dal, some lovely shoes there!

Hi again mumski - I meant to add congrats on your nuptials smile flowers

I also meant to add, my daughter struggled to find wedding shoes, she can't wear heels either, so she bought an inexpensive pair of shoes on ASOS, I think she only wore them that one occasion and then only for a few hours - they were cream lace wedges. She then changed to a smart new pair of white trainers for the dancing! grin

Serena Williams wore trainers to Harry and Meghan's wedding, not suggesting you do, but it's just an example of how people are more genuine these days about their needs.

Would second the suggestion from teetime about Van Dal and Gabor. I have truly ugly and difficult feet and have found both brands comfortable for pretty, ‘special’ shoes. Worth a look if you can.

Just had a peek at their on line. The Betsy open toe in metallic looks lovely and Wedding like.

Have you looked at Hotter?
They do wide fit, their sandals come in a variety of shades and some metallics.

Try Van Dal or Gabor.

I buy a lot of my shoes/sandals from JD Williams catalogue. They do various heights and styles. I need wide shoes and have always found their wide fit comfortable.

Have you looked at ASOS?

I'm getting married in 6 weeks and on to my third pair of wedding shoes - all sent back. My problem is I can't do heels any more so I've been looking for sandle wedges with a heel no more than 3 cms. Also so my feet are quite swollen so will need a wide fit. I've tried all the usual suspects M and S, Debenhams, John Lewis and on line from America. All I want is white or Ivory with a bit of bling. I have bough some from Shuropody with the idea of sticking on some diamante but have decided they really are too old fogey - a step too far!!! Ha!. HELP!!!
