Out of the Box Brilliance

Different Do’s

You may think that your hair on your wedding is the least of your worries, but having the wrong wedding hair could mean giving off the wrong tone for your wedding gown. The hair has got to match the dress or its disaster city! (ok well not a total disaster, but you get the point) In my opinion, if you are wearing a full Chantilly lace dress you hair has to be very romantic and not a tightly pinned up do. Of course, there is a rainbow of other choices in between!

I know this technically isn’t a bride, but the hair is gorgeous none the less! I love the loose side pony tail with the flower in the center. I really like how it is a flower that has color and not just white or ivory. Color is one of the prettiest details you can add to your wedding so why not add some to your hair?

It used to be that brides would make their best friends wear the most hideous dresses they could find, but now most brides want their bridesmaids to look just as beautiful as they do. I love that this bride chose to have her bridesmaids wear feather headpieces and she chose to just wear a tiny tiara. It looks great and she really took the time to make her wedding party look complete and fabulous!

This next bride I absolutely love. She chose to have her and her bridesmaids wear their hair like they would on a normal day. I know that most brides will never do this, but I thought it was a great idea. You know how to make yourself look the best because you do it on a daily basis! These girls look great and they all look like they are comfortable and glowing, just like the bride.

This bride (who happens to be Milla Jovovich) chose to go with a very boho chic look on her wedding. I really love how she chose to put flowers sporadically in her flowy locks. I think that this gives the look of a hippy wedding in the 1960’s through 1970’s. I don’t recommend the wheat that she also has in there because I think that may give off a little too much of an earthy feel. Maybe replace it with a crown of tiny flowers instead to still have a free flowing look, but not like you just have stuff randomly stuck in your hair.

Lastly, here is a hairstyle that really lives up to an out of the box worthy picture. Nothing says glam to me like pin up girls! Okay maybe you don’t want to be in a bikini on your wedding day or anything, but the hairstyles back then were definitely glam. These are just two of the hairstyles that were popular back then and would make your wedding have the perfect 1950’s glam theme you were looking for!

Word to the wise brides out there; choose your wedding do very carefully because the right hairstyle will showcase your gown perfectly. Choose the wrong one, and you may end up looking back on your pictures saying “what was I thinking!?”
