What Wedding Hairstyle Should You Choose?
Romance is the key for all of today’s most modern wedding hairstyles. Your style should look fresh and easy, not overly styled or contrived. And you definitely do not want your hair to look stiff or heavily sprayed.

It should look as though you could remove a few pins and let it tumble over your shoulders in a sexy cascade (even if it is really held together by fifty pins and a whole can of hairspray!)

Well ladies, I'm glad I found this article about bridal makeup because I'm probably the last person on earth to ask about makeup of any kind!

Oh, I go to the home parties for some of the biggest makeup companies around, but only because I love my sister-in-law and she loves having parties. But I usually just buy handcream or if I'm running low, I'll get a tube of mascara.

The makeovers are fun and everything smells so nice, but once that party's over, I'm back to being plain old me.

So I'll defer any bridal makeup advice to the author of this article, Chantelle Mayhew, owner of Infinity Hair & Beauty, to discuss the pros and cons of doing your own bridal makeup or hiring a pro.

This is vital because you want to make sure the veil coordinates with your gown.

And if you're wearing a headpiece, the type of headpiece you choose will determine the length of the veil.

Most bridal veils come attached to plain clear combs so you can attach the headpieces to them, or you can hide the comb under the headpiece and remove only the veil after the ceremony.

Some brides choose to wear only a veil without a headpiece and tuck the veil comb up under an elegant hairstyle.
