Miss Sunflower, New York Age and Occupation: 26, Speech-Language Pathologist Fiance's Age and Occupation: 31, Slave to the MTA Engagement Date: August 12, 2006 Wedding Date: April 2008 Venue: Jericho Terrace, New York About Me: Mr. Sunflower & I have been together for 3 years and to this day, he laughs at me when I tell him that I knew on our first date that I was going to marry him. Well, the most recent events prove, yet again, that I know everything. Most of my time these days involves planning and getting inspiration for our wedding, but when I'm not doing that, I enjoy shopping, movies, reading, writing, and making attempts at being crafty.

I ordered my bridal shoes a few days ago and they arrived last night. Yes I know I may sound crazy, but I want to make sure I have shoes with me when I go to try on wedding dresses. Plus, I couldn’t pass up on the deal. They’re simple Coloriffics with a 1″ inch heel, for $46, when everywhere else I looked was selling them for $50 and up. I can’t have a very high heel because of my bad knee and I also don’t want to tower over Mr. Sunflower. We’re both 5′10″ and I would like to look “equal” on our wedding day.

I love the way they look on - they slenderize and elongate my feet. Granted, not many people will see the shoe since I want my gown to be floor-length, but I want to be comfortable and not have my tootsies be squished and aching all day.
