What should my hair look like on my wedding day?
I have an oval face and dark brown hair. I am tall (to the point I had to add length to my gown) and have a strapless champagne slight pick-up dress. I wanted my hair to be ‘braided’ like in a celtic old fashion way but the hairstylist couldn’t do what I wanted. I don’t want the typical wedding poof and curls, but have a tiara like headband and veil. I basically want something beautiful but different and all up to show off my necklace. Any suggestions?

Depends on the length and texture of your hair, but here are a few less ‘typical’ ideas.

If you have longer hair, half up half down will most likely look best in photos unless you have very striking facial features. All up looks good in person but some photos can render the wearer practically bald looking.
Since you said braided I have kept that idea to give you a few different pics to get ideas from. Except, have you tried finding a different hairdresser that can do what you want them to do? You shouldn’t have to forego your favourite hairstyle just because your hairdresser doesn’t know how to do it.
