Long Wedding Hairstyles with Veils and Tiaras
Bridal hairstyles deserve special attention and lots of planning ahead when deciding upon the look for your wedding day. Charmingly traditional, veils give your wedding day hairstyle a superbly feminine look. Don’t let the fear of managing it all evening keep you from choosing to wear a veil. You can keep it through the ceremony and gently remove it during evening for a more modern and fuss-free look for your reception.
A Veil and a Tiara
For the prettiest princess look on your wedding day, brides with long hair can opt for both a veil as well as a Tiara or similar headpiece. Always a hit with the bride’s mothers, this is perhaps the most classic and feminine look for any bride. We found a lovely selection of bridal tiaras at Princess Sparkle and would recommend that you browse through them to get an idea of the different styles of tiaras available, before you finalize your hair do for the day.
Down Do Hairstyles
Let it begin our hairstyle inspirations with none other than Duchess Kate herself, who brought back the romance of a traditional wedding gown and hairstyle at her royal wedding.
Here are some more ideas for bridal hair-dos sporting a tiara along with a veil.
You can replace the tiara with similar wedding hair accessories for a more fairytale and romantic look. From a combination of real or artificial flowers to rhinestones, feathers, pearls and ribbons, you can choose a headpiece to suit your wedding style in the form of head bands or hair wreaths.
Half Updo Hairstyles
Buns
High and low buns, as well as half-updos and down-dos can carry off this look perfectly.
Veils come in all shapes and sizes. A long veil often looks elegant and romantic, but covers up a large part of the gown. A shorter veil shows the back of the dress giving a little more freedom of movement.
You can also opt for double veils that make it possible to completely cover your face until the vows are read.
Veils are mostly made in lace or tulle. Some veils have finished or scalloped edges. Others are beautifully decorated with flowers, beads or other embellishments.
Low buns offer a good grip to pin the veil and leave ample space for showing off a pretty tiara.
One important thing to keep in mind is that although all these hairstyles look lovely, they were all created for different wedding dresses and face shapes. Always remember that the hairstyle you finally choose should show off your face, figure and wedding gown to its best advantage. Always consult with your hairstylist before you begin purchasing tiaras, veils and other hair accessories.
