Side Swept Wedding Hair

Choosing a certain hair do for your wedding is a hard thing to do. The most important detail is to remember that everything has to be in accordance with your figure, your attitude and the theme of the wedding. If you wish on having an elegant event with classy decorations, fashion clothes and incredible accessories, we will recommend you the side swept dos. This sort of styling complements a lot of body and face types and will highlight long locks that shine in the most glamorous way.





Used for almost a hundred years, the side wept wedding hairstyles have been around brides for just a little. More suitable for 1940s and 1950s pin up girls, now it's the most tasteful way of drawing attention to your hot side rather than to your white cute one. The main characteristic of this do is that it has the strong ability of making a face seem rounder and more feminine. Ideal for women with a longer face figure, the side swept wedding hair will elongate the neck and soften any more harsh features. You have many variations to choose from around this main style. You can wear your hair up or let it down flowing on one shoulder.





The let down version is a more sensational one. A longer length of hair with a little bit of volume would look fabulous. You can choose to have it wavy or straighten up. The most popular choice is a lot of volume on the top, where the hair is smoother and loose waves on the bottom. In all cases you can use accessories and in contrast with the other hair styles, these accessories will pop immediately when you enter a room. If you want to look more romantic and nice, rather than like a diva, you can opt for less volume on the top and soft waves on the let down part.





If let down hair is not for you, you can improvise any type of bun to be worn with the front locks in a side swept arrangement. You can even include braiding. Starts from the front and braid to the back very close to the head; when you reached the back side of your head secure it and let it flow, but remember that volume is compulsory on the other side of your head. Lastly, you bring the remaining hair up and decorate with a few small flowers. This is the coolest fairy look for a wedding!

Hair Accessories for Beach Weddings

If you're planning on getting married on a golden sandy beach under a cloudless blue sky and warm sun then you probably aren't the type of woman who wanted a big white traditional wedding in a church with a huge white dress, train and veil. You might not even be the type to wear a wedding tiara, but prefer something more causal or low key. So what are your options for decorating your hair at your beach wedding?


If you're wearing your hair down, then a side tiara or wedding headband might be the easiest option. They're simple to wear and can easily be slipped into place without the need for a hair dresser or a friend to help you. If you're not a headband kind of girl and to be honest I don't feel like any type of headband suits me then you might want to choose something else.





A lot of brides wear their hair half up and half down which gives them plenty of options for decorating their wedding hair. The first thing that springs to mind is a wedding comb which can be worn to the side or the back of the hair, again these are pretty easy to place but you might need to have a few practice sessions just to make sure that you can slide it into your hair at the right angle and make sure it stays were it's supposed too.





If you don't fancy the weight of a bridal comb them you could always choose grips. These could be made from crystals, pearls or diamante and be as simple or as detailed as you like. They don't need to be functional, so if you've used other things to keep your hair in place you can just slide them in to your hair where you want them. After a headband these are probably the easiest bridal hair accessory to place. You can get most wedding hair grips designs on hair pins. These are the longer 2 pronged pins which hold buns and other chunky hair styles in place. If you're used to styling your hair with regular hair pins then you shouldn't have any problems using these.





Bridal hairvines are becoming more popular for beach weddings, this is because of their range of uses and the causal style. Depending on how you're planning on wearing your hairvine you may need a friend on hairdresser to style your hair properly, but if you're using a short hairvine just to highlight the parting of your hair or follow the sweep of your fringe you shouldn't have a problem securing it yourself with a few hair grips.





Of course if you want to there's nothing stopping you from wearing a wedding tiara at your beach wedding, but I find many brides prefer a more casual look.

They've fluttered their way onto dresses, wedding cakes, stationery, wedding favours!





A few things. One: the garden trend. We're obsessed with tea parties, garden parties, English tea parties in gardens. no blow-out garden party is complete without a few sets of wings.


It's not just gardens, either. For reasons not entirely clear to anyone, butterflies are getting downright hot here.


Butterflies are a symbol of change, growth and new beginnings, therefore making them a great option for any wedding event.


Back in the dark ages of the New Wedding, brides mostly "did" butterflies by sewing on a few white appliques here and there, and scheduling a butterfly release right after the vows.


So now, butterflies are likely to show up in boho/shabby-chic settings with lots of pastels, or a brighter, more contemporary wedding with blocks of high-energy color.





What could be more beautiful and feminine than a butterfly? Their graceful nature and pretty colors make butterflies one of the most special motifs to use for a wedding. These are some marvelous butterfly decorations which would add a touch of whimsy to any wedding.


The neat thing about using butterflies as a wedding decoration is that they are small and pretty. They can be used sparingly for one or two surprise details, or as a unifying theme throughout your wedding. A lovely place to begin is with wedding stationery which is either stamped or embossed with a butterfly in flight.


All little girls love butterflies, so if you use butterflies in only one part of your wedding, let it be the flower girl's attire. Start with butterfly motif flower girl jewelry. A dainty pendant featuring a sparkling crystal butterfly would be the ideal jewelry gift for a flower girl of any age.


Next, there is her dress. A white organza flower girl dress can be embellished by stitching on small lace appliques in the shape of butterflies. If you really want to go all out with the theme, use a flower girl dress in a solid color organza, and let your little one prance down the aisle wearing a set of beautiful butterfly wings.





Butterflies and flowers go hand in hand, so the wedding flowers would be a natural next place to decorate with butterflies. Colorful mixed bouquets would be even more special with a few butterflies on long wires tucked in between the flowers so they appear to be perched on the blossoms. Choose from silk, feather, or even enamel butterflies in an array of colors. To make a very bold statement, create a bridal bouquet entirely out of feather and silk butterflies, formed into a nosegay shape.


Rather than the standard white place cards, why not use die cut butterfly cards to graciously welcome guests to their seats at the reception? Simply pen the name of each guest onto a piece of heavy card stock in a butterfly shape, cut a slit into it, and perch it gracefully onto the rim of a wineglass at each place setting. As a great tie in, the same shaped paper could be used for the escort cards. Create a butterfly tree with the name and table numbers suspended from branches. This would be an equally lovely idea for an indoor or an outdoor reception.





The final wedding element to decorate with butterflies is the wedding cake. A scattering of the graceful winged creatures going up the tiers of the cake would be a gorgeous sweet ending to any wedding. The butterfly theme is so elegant and whimsical that it is sure to add a touch of magic to your wedding.


Have real, live butterflies or white doves released around you as you step out of the church, creating a true fairy tale effect. Your guests will never forget it! Neither will you.
