The rescue flats at the wedding were a hit! I got so many compliments on them. I had 113 guests, got 2 boxes, & had 5 flats left over at the end of the night. They were so easy since the box is the display, and they were a lifesaver for many. I live in NYC and I still keep a pair in my backpack in case I need to change out of my heels. They’re incredible comfortable, would highly recommend! I did a pre-order and they came a month earlier than expected!

The Rescue Flats were such a hit at my wedding! I wanted a more upscale vibe than the traditional flip-flops provided at weddings, and these were just perfect! The champagne color was gorgeous and fit well with everyone's dress. They are also a neutral color, so people can use them again and again after the wedding. Almost every pair was gone by the end of the night! Huge hit!
I wish they had come with a small bag to store the flats after use. They come with a bag to store your heels, but at the end of the wedding, I had all of those heel bags leftover because no one took them. A little pouch to save and store the flats would be a much better option.

I couldn’t be happier with my purchase of two boxes of Rescue Flats for my upcoming wedding! These shoes are a total game-changer. They arrived quickly and are just as stylish as they are practical—perfect for when my feet need a break from heels on the big day. The packaging was cute, and I love how compact the flats are, making them easy to stash in my bag. The quality is excellent, and the flats are incredibly comfortable. I know they’ll be a lifesaver when the dancing starts! Highly recommend these to any bride-to-be looking for comfort and style on their wedding day!

I’ll start this review by acknowledging that this wasn’t the most inexpensive add on to the day/night but it was HANDS DOWN the most verbally appreciated frosting item of the reception. We ordered the recommended amount for our reception and it was spot on — only a few of the smallest sizes left over. I personally changed into them immediately after the ceremony and they saved my toes and soles to enjoy the band without concern. The quality was better than expected - sparkles didn’t fall off and I was able to rewear them on our mini moon! Thank you rescue flats!

I received my order of Rescue flats the first week of September: in perfect time for my wedding. I bought 3 boxes of the Rose Gold Glitter flats which was the perfect amount and perfect color for a fall wedding. It was actually more than I needed so i gifted a box to a best friend of mine getting married the weekend before me. She was very quizzical of the flats at first not really understanding the purpose, but once the flats made their appearance, not a single sole was left in heels! Everyone danced the day away at her wedding! At my wedding the following weekend the MC made an announcement that the flats were out and the girls RAN like there was a fire to secure themselves a pair! There’s nothing better than being able to let loose, let your hair down, and take off your heels! I unfortunately did not switch into my Rescue Flats and my toes are still numb… that was a HUGE MISTAKE on my part. BRIDES! Don’t be a hero! Be comfortable and change into your Rescue Flats!

Great addition to my daughter's wedding!
Rescue Flats are easy to order and a great product! We ordered a few different colors for my daughter's wedding. We did a pre-order for a discount and added more when they were on sale. They arrived earlier than expected too.
Guests loved being able to kick their heels off and dance in the cute flats. We had none left over by the end of the evening :)

Shipping was super fast- some pairs came the very next day!
Love the packaging and bags.
4 stars because they honestly are not the most comfortable. They will do the job but after a night of wearing heals and switching to these, even a tiny bit of padding would feel nice- these have nothing but a plastic type lining on the bottom. I understand that’s probably to keep them portable, but they are disappointing in the comfort department.

These were so much more than just a box of shoes! They come in 3 sizes. Each pair is tied together with a hair tie that has a cute little bow on it! Each box also comes with bags for the high heels that your guests take off for easy transport after the wedding. The display looks nice and is easy to setup. Even my fiancé was impressed by the quality and attention to detail that was in the box. I’m really excited to see my guests enjoy these. I think they will add a special detail to my reception!

Since I know a lot of people don’t have the time or patience for long reviews, I have bulleted the key items blow:
- Comfortable and have grippy bottoms to avoid slippage.
- Worth every penny and provide a significant discount if you order in advance
- Fits men as well as woman
- Fun colors and classy display
- Much safer for your guests than flip flops
- Special touch that our guests greatly appreciated
- Ordered 60 (3 boxes), for 118 person wedding. Only had a few left over
Full Story: I was adamant that I would not use flip flops for our wedding since I had slipped in a provided pair at a Wedding the year before and ended up breaking my foot. I thus nicknamed them “death flops” and really wanted a classy slipper option. I did extensive research (I’m a data nerd) but was unable to find an equivalent product that even came close.
These were originally more than I had budgeted, however the small professional touches (satin bow, bag for your nice heels, easy set up professional display) helped me to justify it. I ended up going with the order in advance option since it saved me $50 per box, even though it was set to arrive the week of the wedding. Rescue flats communicated after just 3 days that they were ahead of schedule and I would receive my order earlier than expected. They communicated again with the tracking number when it was shipped, and I was overjoyed to receive them a full two months earlier!
The flats looked even better in person and had easy, clear instructions regarding display set up. This made it helpful for my venue coordinator to replicate my desired aesthetic on the Wedding day. More people than I can count told us how thoughtful we were to provide this for them and how comfortable and cute the shoes were. The men even started wearing them with no shame, and I really feel that these shoes helped to keep all our guests on the dance floor for the full 2 1/2 hours of our live band.
If you are worried about the cost - it’s incredibly worth it. If you are wondering if you will find anything better - you won’t. Buy these and you won’t regret it.

My guests loved the rescue flats! I even had a couple call me to buy any extras (there aren’t any!). My only concern was that I bought them and it was the in stock color which should go out the next day. I had to track them down with 2 emails to get the tracking info because it wasn’t provided anywhere. Definitely don’t wait until the last month of your timeline to order or you could be stressed getting them.

I’m the bride….and even I wore my Rescue Flats on the Dance Floor! I came across an ad for these by chance while finishing up plans for our wedding.
Heels hurt after awhile - they just do, but everyone …. Including our elderly grandmothers feels obligated to wear them.
I had 2 boxes of Rescue Flats sitting right inside the door of the reception hall for guests to grab. By the end of the night, nearly every single pair was gone.
Guests had no excuse to avoid the dance floor, and I got SO many compliments and thank yous for adding a thoughtful extra to our reception.
(My MoH’s husband probably wouldn’t like me sharing this, but even he and one of the groomsman ditched their dress shoes and grabbed a pair too).

We had a black tie wedding and everyone was beyond thrilled to see these offered to guests. It was such a welcome sight instead of a basket of flip flops and everyone was asking where they could grab a pair! The "heel bags" for the guests shoes was the perfect added touch too!

I absolutely adore Rescue Flats! They were the best purchase I made for my wedding day. All my guests raved about them, and I found them incredibly comfortable. The hair scrunchy was a nice added touch. My only regret is not buying more boxes – I should have stocked up! I love them so much that I ordered extra for myself and as gifts after the wedding. I'll definitely be buying them for my future big parties. These flats are incredibly comfortable – I can't express how much I love them. It was a fantastic purchase!

We purchased rescue flats for our March 25, 2023 wedding in New York City.
Our guests were absolutely raving about the shoes - that they were sleek, comfortable, and kept them dancing all night long.
We also had an incredible customer service interaction with the company - when we realized months after our order that one of our boxes did not arrive only two weeks before our wedding date, customer service sent us a replacement box within hours of the initial email - and they arrived two days later, no questions asked.
The team at rescue flats is incredibly kind and attentive, and I would recommend these shoes to keep your guests on the dance floor all night!

I got two boxes of the rescue flats and all the female guest loved them. Most of the female guest were wearing them as they danced the night away. The whole set up for the flats were great. The guest liked the bag that came with them so they had a place to store their heels. They said the flats were comfortable and stylist. I loved that the boxes and flats worked with my fall theme. At the end of the night the two boxes were completely empty which proved they were a hit.

I have not yet received my order yet so can’t give a full review but I love the concept, I think they’ll be a hit! I appreciate I can preorder and be confident that I’ll have the flats I want by my wedding next September.
I considered getting the pashminas here but decided Etsy has more colorful/prettier options at a similar or lesser prices.

I have heard countless times that you don’t need extra shoes and that they just go to waste for weddings. BUT I bought two boxes of Rescue Flats and they were all gone by 8pm!!
All the women were so grateful that they could move freely and I as the bride was so happy everyone could have a good time.
Not only did the women all wear them, but some of the groomsmen too! They said they’re rental shoes we’re terribly uncomfortable, so they slipped on some gold Rescue Flats and wore them the entire night.
It was awesome to have the cute boxes on the dance floor and the bags to take home. Rescue Flats are worth every penny.

If you're considering Rescue Flats - do it! They were a HUGE hit at our wedding. Pro tip - make sure that you take the sizes out of the box for your bridal party or guests of honor in advanced to ensure that they get the sizes needed. I am STILL having guests raving over the details that the shoes brought to our wedding, and folks asking me if I have any leftover! 10/10 recommend!

I made a mistake when placing my order by adding rush shipping to a preorder but Rescue Flats caught it and Sarah reached out to me right away to check on it and issue my refund. I was very impressed with the professional yet personal approach and it made me feel great about working with them! My flats have arrived right on time and I love them. They were shipped in great protective packaging and included easy instructions for how to set up your display box. Everything looks exactly like their website and ads and I can't wait to use them at my wedding!

Although Rescue Flats was recommended by a friend. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to use this vendor originally. While on the Rescue Flats website the flats I wanted were sold out and available through preorder only. I reached out to their customer service department to share my concerns about their preorder process to my surprise I received a call back the next day and although I can’t remember who I spoke with the person was very professional, knowledgeable, and passionate when describing the rescue flats and the preorder process she left me thinking although there are other similar products out there. Rescue Flats are a unique brand and their products are definitely worth the wait. I hung up - went to their website and ordered. 😊

Our wedding was circulated around our guests comfort! We wanted not only every aspect of the night to be perfect but we wanted their feet to feel the same!!! Walking around in heels and primarily on grass for a 6 hour wedding, is extremely uncomfortable so our goal was to cater to everyone’s barking dogs! We made an adorable set up right by the entrance of the dance floor so that all sized feet could be cuddled in adorable ballet flats. Hard to miss, each guest choose their size, favorite color slipper and walked to their dance floor spot with a smile on their face and a little gift to walk home with! I recommend every wedding offer this special treat, without them, the dance floor might not have been used and crowded with every single guest we invited!!!!

I purchased Rescue Flats for my wedding reception and they were a huge hit! Guests are still complementing us on them, like how cute the flats and set up was. The added bonus of the bow/ponytail holder and shoe bags gave it that extra little something.
When planning a wedding, every extra little task can add up and become overwhelming as the big day approaches. Rescue Flats made my "shoe station" task simple, quick and easy without compromising style or elegance.

We purchased Rescue Flats for our wedding - and they were a HUGE hit. So many people commented on the thoughtfulness and attention to detail of having them available to guests. One person even messaged us after the wedding to say that she was bringing them to another upcoming wedding! They are a bit pricey, but worth the cost - especially if you take advantage of their discounted advanced purchase options. Additionally, there was an unexpected delay with our order, so the Rescue Flats customer service team graciously replaced our late box with individually packaged flats in plastic zippered pouches. 10/10 experience!

If you want your guests to dance all night, Rescue Flats will be the ticket! We had a black tie wedding. So I was worried the presentation of a box of shoes would look out of place. Not only is the box beautiful, but the hair ties and shoe bag that come with each pair are pretty too! I was so worried these flats would go unused, but in a matter of MINUTES, EVERY pair was snatched and put on by a happy guest. Everyone raved about them and kept our guests dancing the night away. Thank you Rescue Flats! with love, Such a Happy Bride.

We had a few extra pairs leftover and I have been throwing them in my bag for other events. This was by far one of the better purchases we made for our wedding.

I ordered these on a Monday and received them on a Friday! The shipping was super fast and the product came in even better than I thought. They only had glitter “ready now” available. I was a little skeptical of the glitter because of shedding but they don’t shed bad at all. They’re super cute. I think my guest will love them!
