Bridal Hair

After swearing all along that she'd wear her hair down for her wedding, Bride did a trial run several weeks ago and opted for an up-do. One of her bridesmaids gave her great advice about doing this, since Bride would've fiddled with her hair all day long if it hadn't been off her neck. And I'm sure she appreciated having it up with all the wild dancing at the reception.

Bride, bridesmaids, and MoB took advantage of the hair and makeup services on the day of the wedding. It was quite an ambitious schedule that started at 9am. The makeup artist and hair fixer-upper arrived at our hotel room and rotated through 11 of us, including the junior bridesmaid, stepmom, and grandmother. It was quite an operation, but we all got out in time to head for the church and begin the photo session before the wedding.

Bride's hair was stunning. The bridesmaids wore low up-do's and looked great. I was moderately happy with my hair. It did stay in place all day, so I can't complain. And having my makeup done was fun, even the addition of false eyelashes (which take a little time to get used to, but look great).

Not having to worry about getting our hair and makeup right really helped us make it through the day (and night). I highly recommend it.
