    Yep, definitely heels (and this is from a non-heel wearer) but I'd wear flats to the ceremony to save your feet because hanging around outside/inside is what will kill your feet. You won't notice after a couple of drinks and a bit of a dance.

    I'd go bronze or neutral actually. Neutral ie. cream/beige will elongate the leg. Definitely gladiator heels. Chunky heels are more comfortable.

    I wore a brown satin dress recently, similar to the brown in your dress. I teamed it with dusty pink heels and a dusty pink hand bag to tie it all in. A splash of colour brings our the whole outfit, and if you pick a pale dusty pink it compliments the tones in the dress.
    I say heels, but then again, i ALWAYS say heels!

    what a pretty dress. Definitely heels with that dress. I like Dee's idea of dusty pink or similar. Bronze heels might be too much bronze overall.

    Either colour would be completely fine and long as you don't over do it with matching jewellery or its going to look a little too much.

    If you wear flats and are uncomfortable in heels then wear flats...Other wise you will spend the night thinking "my feet hurt" and its easily seen on your face. I highly doubt anyone will be looking at your feet thinking "omg, she wore flats!?!".

    I wear flats a lot since breaking my foot a few years ago and I've never ever had a problem and having been to a few weddings wearing flats I'm usually the only one with my shoes still on at the end of the night.

    Hmmm I like the idea of a neutral colour but as my skin is the colour of toffee I'm not sure it'd work KWIM? Neutral for me is more like tan lol
    I was also thinking pewter coloured sandals today....might toddle off to the ole 'fashion capital' later this week with dress in tow to suss things out. Mum gave me a $150 DJ's voucher for my birthday but of course DS has pulled it out of my wallet and hidden it somewhere GAHHH.
