Does anyone else have this issue?

I am just about 5'5 and FH is 6'1 all my BM are around 5'-5'3 minus 2 girls who are 5'7 and 5'9

I just got my shoes, which I am absolutely in love with, but the heel is 3.5 inches. I am actually very comfortable in the shoes but I dont know if I'm going to look too tall next to all my girls. Should I try and shorten the heel a bit or keep them as is and say screw it?

Here is a picture fo my shoes if this helps

keep them as is...couples are paired up by height for pics and walking in anyway so it will be fine!

I say screw it! Wear them and be taller than everyone.. you are the bride! It wouldn't look strange at all!
How tall is your groom though? If he isn't too much taller than you and the shoes make you taller than maybe.... but hey chicks can be taller than their men if they wanna be.

I have similiar issues.. only I am tall natrually so I'm kinda used to being the tallest one around. I am just about 5 ft 8 inches... and FH is 6ft 6 inches. We are tall people and will most likely tower over our BP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wouldn't worry. Your girls will have heels on too so I don't think the height differences will be bad. Besides, most of your pics will be w/ FH anyways.

FH is 6'1 so I know I wont have a height issue with him. If anything I wont hurt my neck looking up at him in photos

I think it will look fine. My friend just got married and all her BM's except for 1 were way shorter then her. It looked fine!

After I asked.. I looked at your pic.. and realized he looks like a tall boy and so that shouldn't be a problem! I love tall guys!

Keep 'em. I love those shoes. I got Grace as well as they are rumored to be extremely comfortable shoes.

Re: Does anyone else have this issue?

I agree with everyone else.

Re: Does anyone else have this issue?

Those are absolutely fine. I'm 5'10' and I'm taller than my entire BP (save I think one GM), AND FH! It is what it is...if it looks stupid in pics, oh well, I'm not gonna pull a Katie and hunch! Plus I'm having the girls wear flats, no cheating to sneak up on me I don't think you'll have a problem with those shoes, it won't be a drastic difference anyways.
