Half Up, Half Down…

Do you wear your hair up or down on the big day…It can be a tricky decision! Why not have the best of both worlds and combine them! This style is the perfect way to frame your face and still have your luscious locks out and flowing. Try a high pony style, bun, or sweetly swept waves. Don’t forget some finishing spray for the perfect textured set!

Flowers…

It’s true what they say, you can never have enough flowers in your life! Flowers are one of the sweetest ways to accessorise your bridal look. Thread them through a braid, prop them up as a flower crown or dot them through your flowing curls. So what’s the best way to make sure you keep this gorgeous style all night long? Lots of bobby pins!!

Braids…

What says boho bride better than a braid! Whether you choose small braids layered throughout your hair or a few pinned back, this is a great way to add some texture and fun into your look. Don’t forget to pop some accessories in for some extra sparkling detail.

Pin your curls up in every direction to give you a ultimate tousled look. Don’t forget lots of hairspray to hold everything in place! Finish off with some gorgeous little headpieces or flowers scattered throughout.

Loose Waves…

The loose wave look is known for looking effortless and relaxed. If you are wanting to carry off a more casual and simple style for your bridal glam then this style is ideal. After you have curled your hair and have the perfect wave look, add in a salt spray and tussle to give your hair a lovely sea-swept effect.
