Playful Side Ponytail: For the fun-loving lady who’s looking to try something different, a sweet side ponytail is the perfect way to play up a bridal beauty look! Consider giving volume to the crown of your hair for a little more ‘oomf, opt to style the ends with a curling iron or add a unique hair piece. This look is all about having fun, so get creative and make it your own!

Casual Loose Curls: Loose, blown-out waves are lovely for the casual girl who prefers a laid-back wedding day beauty look, as opposed to the traditional up-do. This style looks especially beautiful when paired with a cascading, finger-tip veil.

Elegant High Bun: Sophisticated and glamorous, a chic high bun is sure to be the statement-making feature of your wedding day look! Bonus points if you add a stunning cathedral veil to the back of the bun to amp up the wow factor.

Half-Up, Half-Down: Looking to get the best of both worlds? Sport a half-up, half-down bridal hairstyle! Try pinning the top section of your hair up into an intricate twist or pretty braid, while leaving the bottom section down to frame your face. Whether you opt for romantic curls or a sleek straight style, you’re free to style the bottom section of your hair to your heart’s content!

Finally, don’t forget to stash extra bobby pins and plenty of hairspray in your back-up beauty kit (and ask your ‘maids to do the same)! Now, all that’s left to do is pick the style that best suits your wedding day vision and rock it!
