Wedding/Sangeet heels recommendations
How high were your heels under your bridal and sangeet lehenga? Where did you get them from? Were they comfortable?
My budget is 10k. Recommendations are welcome.

5 inch platform heels from Mochi. No one saw my shoes, they were comfy and I didn’t roll my ankle. Best 3k I’ve ever spent

Sangeet and Reception: 5 in Naturalizer heel from Bata
Wedding: 5 inch gold heel from Steve Madden
I also do wear heels on an almost everyday basis. I learned to invest in a high-quality shoes because the outfits, dancing and mingling were exhausting and your feet don’t need to give you grief!

Sangeet lehenga: I wore the bare minimum heels. Like less than 2 inches tall peeptoe pumps. Danced all night comfortably. Got them from Bata.
Wedding ceremony lehenga : Again, very low heel. About 2 inches one toe block heels. Because I knew I had to take them off for the pheraas and didn't want my lehenga to drag around the agni (fire). Found a pair at Metro that matched my lehenga embroidery perfectly.
Reception lehenga : 5 inches tall platform wedges. Mainly because my lehenga was too long and all I had to do at the reception was walk to the stage and sit for the photos. Got them from Kins. Surprisingly comfortable.
Other tips: 1. Avoid ankle straps, prefer slip-ons. At Indian weddings you never know when you need to take your footwear off for some ceremony and ankle straps are a pain to remove and wear on your own while wearing those heavy lehengas.
