Flip flops

These can come in handy, whether at a beach wedding or a ballroom affair. Ladies and gentlemen alike can kick off their dress shoes and relax with these. Do note that sizing may be an issue, and you may have to take on the added step of having your guests include their feet size in their RSVPs.
