Hi, Lean backwards slightly and walk from the hip. Put the whole foot down not the heel first. Gwynne

Also beware of grids in the church and any wet grass. Otherwise, just walk normally with your head held high. AL

oh yes.. and take a pair of flatties for later on for the evening do... by then your feet will probably be crippled in stilettos... and you wont be able to dance... or walk... ( personal experience here) ouch :((

Might be worth wearing those gel pad things if you're going to be wearing them for a while?
