I Like these, I like the shape and style not sure about the heel width though. Plus price a bit more than I want to spend.

I like these they hide the toes and heal and also add a bit of hight with a chunkier heal. These are - Vanessa Bridal ShoesThe Vanessa Bridal Shoes are another fabulous court shoe with a simple crossover cut out design to the front and an elegant rounded toe.
Heel Height: 3.5 inch
Fabric: All Fifi by Filippa Scott Bridal Shoes are 100% Silk
Colour: Ivory or White 100% Silk
Polished leather outsole, 4mm padded insock throughout, leather insock and lining
Sizes: - UK Adult Sizes 3 - 8
Dyeable
But the only prob is they are £145 but it gives me an idea of style to look into. Plus I'd like something with a bit of sparkle or silver.
Decided today to look into shoes so I can get some idea of what is out there and I may like to wear, as I would have to say I practically live in Trainers lol. I do have a pair of high heal boots but they wouldn't be suitable.
I'm not used to thin heals and showing off my toes, let alone my feet. In fact I hate my feet and wouldn't say they are very flattering to show off lol. So would prefer to cover my whole foot. But any way I'm going to have a look and see what catches my eye and get some ideas on shapes and styles and what might go with my Dress if i get the one I like.

Hi, It depends how you want your invitations to look in the end, if for
example you want the inserts to look like those pictured on our Indulgence
design in our design gallery for each invitation you would need: One pocketfold
(obviously!) 89p eachOne 125mm x 125mm silver insert ( boarder) 20p eachTwo
120mm x 120mm white inserts ( one with invite details, one with map) 20p eachOne
120mm x 100mm white insert (taxi info)15p eachOne 120mm x 80mm white insert
(R.S.V.P)10p eachOne monogram card approximately 50mm x 50mm 8p eachWe cut all
of the card ourselves so you can pick and choose the sizes to suit you. Please
do not hesitate to contact us again if you have any further questions. Kind
regards Kelly Edgecombe http://www.pocketfoldinvites.co.uk/This comes to £1.82 per invite, I don't think thats to bad is it? Got to now find out how many I will need to make.
If I did it it this way I would use my Monogram to close the invite.
I like the Style below, I'd use silver Organza ribbon and add my Monogram. I like this style because the cut point reveals the names which I think is a nice touch.
for the style below, again I'd use my Monogram and have like an envelope point instead of the hearts
The main Card would be Sapphire then the invite printed on white and matted on silver. Same style to the Pocket Invites that I want to do for Wedding and Reception guests.
I also would like to do them DIY and feel confident that I could draw up a template for these invites.
Or I could just do ordinary card style, heres a couple ideas I had been talking to madhattermillie over on Ukscrappers here is her idea as I put up a post asking for suggestions -

salutations £20.95 p61 cheers and wishes £16.95 p63 Ink wise, i would recommend
using a blank roller (£5.50 p83) filled with versamark refill (£3.25 p82) and
silver embossing powder (£3.75 p82) Card wise, i would say make/buy your own
card blanks and the purpose made ones tend be a bit stronger. There is a
brilliant blue ink available £4.50, Matching cardstock, A4 pack of 24 £4.50 and
the jumbo ink cartridge for the roller stamp is also available in this colour
for £6.25. i currently have a 10% discount until the order is sent on 24th
august, p&p £3.50 hope that helps! joxAnd here are some of the ideas I came up from her suggestion -
Using a roller on white card but rolling once to create a blue design let it dry then roll again but so I get the silver and emboss silver over lapping but so the blue still shows. Adding blue butterflys 3d effect and adding little silver rhinestones and the word your invited at the bottom.
Another idea, same principle using a roller on Blue card but rolling once to create a white design let it dry then roll again but so i get the silver and emboss silver over lapping but so the white still shows. again adding white butterflys 3d effect and adding little silver rhinestones and the word your invited at the bottom.
Blue as main card colour, a flourish swirl type roller going across vertical or horizontle depending on card shape so then use silver embossing powder so the design shows and then with a small butterfly punch cut some white card and use the little butterflys glue them to the vine giveing a kinda 3d effect and then the your invited in silver to so it shows up.
Madhattermillie has offered to make up some samples so I can have a look before buying the bits. Also Paula on Wedding Announcers Forum is putting together an idea for me too. Can't wait to see the results as I have a theory as you can see of what I want but it may be to expensive to do it my way.

I won't hurt you
I'll protect you
Pre - Arrival Music ( must not contain religous content)
Entrance Music (must not contain religous content)
Welcome and Introductions
The ceremony begins with your celebrant welcoming you and your guests to the marriage venue.
Good afternoon everyone. On behalf of Dorset Registration Service I would like to welcome you all to The Coppleridge Inn on this day of David and Tracey's marriage. My name is ......... and I shall be conducting the ceremony. My colleague .......... will register the marriage.
The Copplerige Inn has been duly sanctioned according to law for the celebration of marriages. You are here to witness the joining in matrimony of David (full name) and Tracey (full name).
we have the option of a Reading by a Guest, Song or a Piece of Music but decided not to. but that could change if some one in the family says they want to do a Reading or something.
Presentation of the Bride
The Bride wishes to be presented or given away.
Intention to Marry
The following paragraphs take you through the legal formalities.
The Celebrant will say:
Before you are joined in matrimony, I have to remind you of the solem and lasting character of the vows you are to make. Marriage according to the law of this country is the union of one man with one women, voluntarily entered into for life to the exclusion of all others. More than this, marriage is also intended to provide the love and friendship, help and comfort which each should have for the other, both in times of joy and hardship.
To Groom "Will you please tell me your full name"
To Bride "Will you please tell me your full name"
The Celebrant will then say:
"David and Tracey you have invited your friends and family here to witness your exchange of vows to each other. Are you both now ready to make your commitment to each other?"
Bride and Groom both reply together "We are".
Legal Declarations
The Celebrant will now say:
"Now you each have to declare that you do not know of any lawful reason why you should not be married to each other".
Celebrant " Are you David (full name) free lawfully to marry Tracey (full name)
Groom " I am"
Celebrant " Are you Tracey ( full name) free lawfully to marry David (full name)
Bride "I am"
Promises
The bride and groom can then make a promise to each other. The celebrant will lead you through this section saying the words a few at a time for you to repeate.
"I promise to care for you above all others, to give you my love and friendship, support and comfort, and to respect and cherish you throughout our lives together".
Marriage Vows
The Celebrant will say:
"Now the moment has come for David and Tracey to exchange their vows which will unite them as husband and wife. Could I please ask every one to stand".
The Celebrant will lead through the chosen vow saying a few words at a time for us to repeat.
"I David (full name) take thee Tracey (full name) to be my wedded wife"
"I Tracey (full name) take thee David (full name) to be my wedded husband"
Additional Personal Promises - we decided not to have.
Wedding Rings - The Bride and Groom will both give rings to each other.
Exchange of Rings
The Celebrant will say:
" We have now come to the exchange of rings, which is the traditional way of sealing the vows you have just made. The wedding ring is an unbroken circle; it symbolises everlasting love and is an outward sign of the life long promise you have made to each other. Who has the rings?"
Again the celebrant will lead through saying a few words at a time
I give you /accept this ring as a symbol of our marriage and as a reminder of the vows we have made here today
Announcement
David and Tracey you have both now made the declarations required by law, and have made solemn promises to each other in the presence of your family and friends. You have sealed your marriage vows with each other. May you treasure this trust and responsibility. May no disappointment or misfortune ever part you, and may you live full and rich lives together. Let the world now recognise that you are a husband and wife. Congratulations. Would you now like to kiss your wife.
Reading by Guest, Song or a Piece of Music we have decided to not have any, anless a member of family or friend wish to do a reading.
Signing of the Registar, photographs and Marriage Certificate Presentation - We decided to have music ( must not contain religous content)
Final Music - We decided to have music playing whilst we are leaving the Ceremony room. (must not contain religous content)
