Wedding Headpiece

I love my headpiece that I wore for my wedding. I made the flower and feather part and purchased the birdcage veil at Wendy's Bridal. The flower I purchased at an after Christmas sale, so it ended up being $.50. Then I purchased the comb and the feathers at Jo-Ann fabrics. I used a 40% off coupon to purchase the feathers which made it $.50 and the found the comb on the clearance rack for $.50. I used my trusty hot glue gun to secure everything together.

I tried to make my birdcage veil, but it was not turning out how I wanted it to. Two days before my wedding I went to pick up our wedding rings and there was a Wendy's Bridal next door to it. I just went in to see what they had. One of the store clerks was very helpful in showing me what they had. When she was pulling them off of the rack, she notice that one of them was tangled up in the another tiara. She tried to get it untangled. She said that she would be right back. While she came back, I continued to look, but did not want to pay that type of money for them. She returned and stated to me,"If you and I can get this untangled, my supervisor said that you could have it for 80% off." You know what I did, I sat there and got it untangled. It was one of the best ways I have spent 15 minutes in my life. I love my birdcage veil, really trying to find some where else to wear it, and think that it really worked well with my dress and the look that I wanted on my wedding day.

Wedding Hair: Down Styles

If you are not sold on the whole updo idea, here are some down hair styles. I am not sure if I am crazy about a bride having her hair down for her wedding. I think that it looks more elegant with a brides hair up for her wedding ceremony and if she wants to let lose wearing it down for the reception. I think that there are some exceptions to this thought, like brides who are doing an outdoors themed wedding would look like one with nature with her hair down. My hair is not long enough current for any of these styles and I would need lots of hair extensions to pull any of these styles off.

Wedding Hair: Updo

Between the dress, the shoes and the invitations you have to pick out a hair style. There are many different types of hair styles and in this post I will be looking at updo hairstyles. Depending on the type of wedding that that you are having, updos seem to be more elegant and at times seem like the standard for most brides. Are you wearing an updo?

Flower Girl Hairstyles

Today's flower girls can have a style of their own. From how their hair is styled to what hair accessories that she wears. I am not sure what I am going to get my flower girl to wear in her hair, maybe some special hair barrettes that she can wear again. When assessing what type hair style that your flower girl will wear remember that she is a little girl and not one of your bridesmaids. Are you doing any special hair accessory for your flower girl? Make your flower girl feel special and give her some special hair accessory to wear for your special day and for days to come.
