I'm getting married sometime within the next 16 months. Our date is set for December 2009, but we are trying to move up our date, it's a long story but it has to do with the house we're going to live in....

Anyway, I have a dress already. It's white with lots of beading and a like....ribbon sash thing that goes around the top on the bottom. It's gorgeous.

Now, my hair used to be really really long and I cut it when I started College. I miss my long hair. So I'm going to let my hair grow back out or get extensions put it for the wedding. I want a half up half down hairstyle.

I was wondering if any of ya'll could give me some ideas.

First of all: Congrats! :yahoo:

What does the top your dress look like? I think what hairstyle you should choose depends a lot on that factor :yes: You don't want to much going on, kwim? I was at a wedding once where the bride wore a long-sleeve dress, her hair down, a tiara plus a veil, it was the total overkill :wacko:
 
For my wedding, I wore my hair exactly like I wear it every day. I didn't want my pictures to look like someone else, KWIM? My makeup was a little heavier for the sake of looking good in pictures, but I wanted to look and feel like myself!

The pictures posted above are beautiful though! Whatever you decide, make sure you do a "dress rehearsal" before the big day - hair, makeup, dress, veil, shoes, jewelry. You don't want to put it all together on your wedding day and feel like something just isn't right.
 
take your vitamins! :biggrin:
Mine grows ridiculously fast, I'm half afraid to try a true hairstyle because it would grow out so fast and I don't make time to go for cuts regularly enough already.
Hair pieces/extensions could make a huge difference for one night only.
