Wedding Hair
Happy Fourth of July! I hope everyone is having a great holiday weekend.
Since this is a holiday, I thought I keep it quick and show you how I’m planning on styling my hair for the wedding. After selecting my dress, and knowing that I’ve always wanted to wear one of those large flowers in my hair (ever since seeing Molly Sims wear one in a Cover Girl ad!), I knew that I wanted my hair pulled back. I wasn’t sure if I wanted it up a little high, or low and loose… at first. I made my mind up quickly, though, after seeing this picture of Michelle Williams from the Oscars a couple years ago:

The Vintage Bride
Ah, the vintage bride. As a bride who wore her mother’s dress, I love seeing other brides do the same.

If you don’t have a family member’s dress, vintage dresses (from well known designers to JCPenney catalog) can be found on Ebay or through a Google search.

Your Vintage Wedding
If you’re planning a vintage wedding, Your Vintage Wedding by Nancy Eaton is definitely worth the read. From the trends by decade to the real wedding profiles, the book has a lot of valuable information. Most of it could be found by doing research online, but having it all in once place definitely makes it easier. The author also includes a comprehensive list of vintage wedding resources in the back of the book.

Princess Bride
Proof that not every bride needs to wear white. Proof that not every bridesmaid needs to wear pink. Proof that a simple wedding can also be the best kind of wedding.
