I wore a flat ballet style shoe. It didn't have that silly wrap around on it, thank goodness! It was pretty simple and basic as that was all I wanted. My mother made my dress, which I am so proud of! I call it my Juliet dress. I am not into sleeveles, low-cut, or big trains. It was an empire waist with soft flowing sleeves. Anyway, I wanted something to match the simplicity and beauty of the dress and chose the flat ballet style knowing I wanted to be comfortable the rest of the evening as well. Heels would have killed me!! At the same time I didn't want to be too tacky just to be comfortable.
