Help a girl find some shoes?


Dear ESB,

Are you and your posse up to a little shoe hunt? 

I am getting married in the mountains in California on September 1st. The ceremony will be outdoors in the woods - very rustic. 

I will be wearing this amazing gown from Rachel Zoe.

For shoes, I'm envisioning some kind of platform. The reason for the platform is my aisle involves a little "off-roading" over roots and gopher holes. Spiked heels would spell certain face-plant. 

I need them to be tallllllll shoes, as my dress is too long for me without shoes and I don't want to get it altered. The shoes can be traditional, pretty, bizarre - whatever. We won't be seeing much of them under the dress and I'm down to get a little weird with the shoes. 

One more thing - I'm currently living in Omaha, NE (ಠ_ಠ). There's not a lot of great shopping out here, as you can imagine. I will need to order the shoes online from a place with a decent return policy in case of size issues.

Appreciate your infinite wisdom on this one!

I want to recommend these...

But I also want to say, "Don't do it! Shorten the dress!"

Off-roading + platforms + a floor-length gown = Face-Plant-O-RAMA
