Old Fashioned Plaits

Have we all forgotten how romantic a good old fashioned plait can look? Wear yours super thick and extra long by adding in hair pieces. Or incorporate a humble plait into a more intricate ‘up do’.

Always wear your hair down? Ask your stylist to create a  pretty little ‘up do’. It’ll set your accessories off perfectly!

Beautiful Buns

If you’re getting married in a hot climate, you might want to keep your hair away from your neck to keep your cool. Bridal buns are a super chic option, just muss them up for a casual look or wear them sleek for an elegant look.

I will reiterate my statement above. Don’t fight your curls. Brides look GORGEOUS with natural hair. Just ensure you have a visit to the salon a couple of weeks before the big day for a cut and intensive conditioning treatment. I swear by Moroccan Oil!

The Long Bob

Do you have a long bob? I love them styled with a vintage curl or a loose boho wave. Still wanting an ‘up do’? It is possible. Yay! Ask your stylist to create small curls and twists and then pin to the nape of your neck for a ruffled loose bun.

The Short Bob

Vintage waves or ‘pin curls’ look amazing on short bobbed hair. I also love how the bride above accessorised her chic graduated bob with an over-sized flower.

Short n’ Sweet

Who says short hair can’t be pretty on a bride? Cute little pixie cuts look uber-awesome with a statement bird-cage veil and really sweet with a pretty headband too!

  1. Wow – wedding hair heaven! Loving the beautiful braided styles.

  2. I have kind of a dilemma. I have a lace-covered, corset backed dress, and I don’t want to distract from that with my hair, but I definitely want a half-up, half-down style. It’s just past shoulder length now, and my wedding isn’t for another year. Any suggestions?

    1. Hi Alex, thanks for your comment! I think you can still wear your hair half up and half down… What I would do is pull the half down bit round to the side so it falls to the front of your shoulder :)) XxX Sonia
