I was THRILLED to be able to do my friend Grace's hair on her special day. Grace is so beautiful and has gorgeous, thick, wavy hair that is wild and stunning all at the same time. For her wedding, she knew she did not want the traditional wedding up-do and had been growing her hair out in hopes it would look pretty and long for the big day. At first we went for a full and curly side swept do. We both agreed it was beautiful but not very Grace. We ended up going with a look that was elegant, but also showed off Grace's unique style and complimented her intricate one of a kind pink wedding dress.

Since her hair is pretty wavy, I straightened it to make it as long as possible because she really wanted to show off the length. Then, I separated her hair into two different sections and used a wand to create waves. I didn't apply product to them right away because she wanted a more natural look so I let the waves kind of "fall out." Grace had told me from the beginning that she wanted to somehow incorporate braids into both her hairstyle as well as her bridesmaids. For Grace, I then did not only one but two waterfall braids starting on the left side and moving horizontally across the back of her hair and ending at the right side. After the waterfall braids were done, I took a piece of long hair from underneath her hair (right behind her ear) and braided it across the top of her head, resting right on top of where her bangs began like a head band.

We then finished off this whimsical hair design with a pretty white, floral and feathery hair piece that Grace had purchased online. I attached it to the right side of her hair where it perfectly hid the endings of all 3 braids so that no one could tell where the braids started or ended. It was an outdoor, Florida wedding so humidity is always an anticipated enemy. However, her hair looked absolutely stunning and it lasted all day, not a sign of frizz was in sight!

In addition to designing the Bride's hair, I also did 6 out of the 9 bridesmaids hair. These girls were so sweet and I loved thinking of a new hair design for each of their individual styles and personalities. Each one had a braid incorporated into the design somehow whether it was a traditional braid, a braided headband, a fishtail braid or a waterfall braid. This was hands down the most beautiful wedding I have ever been to and Grace and her husband Daniel did most of the work themselves!
