Your bridal look should capture who you are, your style and sensibilities, and showcase a more polished version of you. Similarly, your bridesmaids should also look and feel their best on your wedding day. Bridal party trends have shifted a lot over the years from clones of each other to individualised looks that capture their unique personalities. Think mix and match bridesmaids dresses, colours and bridesmaids hairstyles.
From a practical perspective, what might look beautiful on one bridesmaids may not suit the personality or body shape of another bridesmaid. So we’ve pulled together our favourite bridesmaids hairstyles which we know they’ll love. Scroll below for our favourite loose wavy hairstyles, ponytails, half up hairstyles and romantic updos.Â
From boho chic to polished and formal, loose wavy hairstyles feel effortless and romantic. Long loose waves suits all bridesmaid dress necklines and frames all face shapes beautifully. Your bridesmaids don’t need to have long hair to pull off this look either. All out hair that’s been softly curled works beautifully in short, medium and long hair lengths. We love this look for beach weddings, garden nuptials and formal affairs.
Customisation ideas: For a slightly more formal look, consider a half up, half down style that incorporates loose waves. This adds a bit of structure while maintaining the relaxed vibe. Or mix and match loose waves and half up styles among your bridal party for a cohesive yet coordinated look.
For modern maidens, a ponytail is the perfect hairstyle for fashion forward bridal parties. Not blessed with luscious long hair? No worries – consider hair extensions for some instant length.
If you’re looking to give your bridesmaids a gift to show them how much you adore them, perhaps some statement earrings might be the perfect finishing touch to their bridesmaids looks.
Customisation ideas:Â Customise the ponytail’s height to suit each bridesmaid’s face shape and style preference. A high ponytail offers a more playful, youthful look, while a low ponytail exudes elegance and maturity.
Half up hairstyles are functional, beautiful and versatile. They suit a range of face shapes, hair lengths and have the added benefit of keeping strands of hair off their faces.
A half up half down hairstyle provides the perfect foundation to tuck in fresh flowers or a delicate hair comb or hair pin. If you’d love to capture a more organic vibe, think baby’s breath or a beautiful spray of green foliage for a look that’s natural and bohemian inspired.
Customisation ideas: For a relaxed, bohemian vibe, consider mixing braids to add a playful touch to your bridal party. Adorn their braids with small flowers, pearl hair pins to enhance the laid-back aesthetic.
You can’t go wrong with a romantic updo for your bridesmaids. Whether it’s simple and chic or loosely tousled, bridal updos suit a range of necklines on bridesmaids dresses. It’s a perfect choice for formal affairs or hot summer weddings outdoors. Practical, effortless and oh-so-chic.
There’s countless updos to draw inspiration from – French twists, romantic braids, ballerina buns, textured updos – you name it. Mix and match updos for a look that your girls will adore.
Customisation ideas: Embrace texture by adding volume and loose strands to the bun. Adjust the height of the bun depending on the ace shape and preferences of your bridal party for a personalisaed look. This creates a more natural, effortless look that’s still chic and stylish.

Every wedding gown and bride is different and the perfect accessories for you will not only depend on your gown but your personal style, vision, height and hairstyle. We love to work with our brides to create the perfect veil that you will love to keep as an heirloom after your wedding day. We are based in Australia and ship worldwide.
There’s something undeniably magical about the moment a bride places a veil on her wedding day. The veil, a symbol of tradition and elegance, adds an ethereal touch to your bridal look, completing the transformation from bride-to-be to bride. But as timeless as veils are, choosing the right hairstyle to complement your veil is just as important as selecting the veil itself. The perfect pairing of hairstyle and veil can enhance your overall look, adding layers of beauty and sophistication.
To help you find the perfect combination, we’ve curated our favourite wedding hairstyles with veils, along with tips on veil placement, accessories, and considerations to keep in mind as you create your dream bridal look.
When choosing your wedding hairstyle and veil combination, it’s important to consider the overall look you want to achieve. Think about how the veil will work with your wedding dress, the venue, and your personal style.
For the bride seeking a classic look that feels modern with a nod to the traditional, a romantic and classic chignon with a veil is chic and effortless.
For some brides, a veil with a wedding updo is a bit too traditional but keep in mind, it’s all about the placement of the veil. A veil positioned high (i.e beyond the crown of your head and closer towards your hairline where a headband would sit), will feel more traditional. A veil positioned a little lower (just above a low set bun) will frame your updo in the most beautiful way.
Best for: Fingertip, chapel and cathedral veils, including single tier and veils with blushers.
Why it works: The chignon’s low, sleek profile allows the veil to sit perfectly above or beneath the updo, letting the veil flow gracefully down your back. This style is especially suited for formal and traditional settings.

How to accessorise this look: Secure the veil and finish with a detailed bridal headpiece or hair pins to add a touch of sparkle to this sophisticated style.
Much loved for its romantic and soft vibe, loose, soft waves styled with a veil is a classic choice that pairs beautifully with lighter, more delicate veils. It suits bohemian bridal looks right through to traditional bridal looks.
Best for: Fingertip, blusher, chapel and birdcage veils.
Why it works: Soft waves create a natural, flowing look that complements the airy feel of lighter veils. This style is perfect for outdoor or beach weddings, where a more relaxed vibe is desired.

How to accessorise this look: Loose, soft waves can still be worn with a veil. Your hairstylist will need to take a few extra precautions with creating a foundation beneath the comb to ensure it doesn’t fall out. Pair this look with dainty drop earrings to frame for a subtle finish.
If you can’t decide between a wedding updo or a bridal hairstyle that’s all down and flowing, a half up half down wedding hairstyle might be the perfect style for you. This versatile style combines the elegance of an updo with the softness of loose hair. When paired with a veil, it creates the perfect foundation to hold the veil into place and also keeps those strands of hair off your face.
Best for: Fingertip, chapel, cathedral and blusher veils.
Why it works: The half up half down style provides a secure base for attaching the veil while allowing the rest of your hair to flow freely. It’s an ideal choice for brides who want a romantic yet polished look.
Photo credits: 1. via Pinterest | 2. via Style Me Pretty | 3. via Style Me Pretty | 4. via PinterestÂ
How to accessorise this look: Position the veil and finish by adding an embellished bridal headpiece on top where the veil is attached to enhance the overall style.Â
We’ve seen many beautiful ponytails grace the aisles this wedding season. A low ponytail is a modern and chic option that pairs well with a variety of veils. The look is not only mesmerising and romantic but ultra chic and feminine.
Best for: Fingertip, chapel and birdcage veils
Why it works: The simplicity of the ponytail provides a clean, sleek base for a veil, especially brides who prefer a minimalist look. This style is great for contemporary weddings.

How to accessorise this look: Wrap a strand of hair around the base of the ponytail to hide the hair tie. Choose a veil that’s attached to a small bridal hair comb so it’s proportional and balanced. A giant veil comb will interrupt the flow of your look. Secure the veil above or below the ponytail and finish with some dainty hair pins to the side.
Not all veils are created equal and not all veils will suit the wedding hairstyles of your dreams. If you’ve fallen in love with a wedding veil from our collection, send us photos of your bridal hairstyle and let’s chat.
We’d be happy to offer advice on how the veil can be customised to suit you and your hairstyle. Often it’s as simple as ensuring the correct sized veil comb is attached. Or it could be a slight variation in amount of gathers at the comb or a tweak to the blusher width for a cleaner look.
Half up half down hairstyles will never go out of style. They’re one of the most popular hairstyles amongst brides, and also the most practical. They offer the best of both worlds – soft and romantic curls and a polished glamour that comes with an updo.
A half up hairstyle isn’t just for long haired brides. Pinned back hair suits short, medium or long hair. Keep in mind, a lot of the looks you see below can be recreated with the help of hair extensions so don’t feel discouraged if your hair isn’t as thick and luscious as the inspiration shots. While hairstylists can’t perform miracles, they can certainly work their magic with their industry tricks, tools and techniques.
If you love a practical and pretty look as much as the next girl, another notable consideration is the versatility of a half up hairstyle. Many brides choose a romantic updo for the ceremony and then remove some of the pins at the nape of the neck to reveal loosely curled hair that’s been held in place for the first half of the day. Just be sure to let your hairstylist know your intentions to change your hairstyle after the ceremony. This way they can design your updo so that it can easily transform into a half up hairstyle with the removal of a few hair pins.
Let’s wait no longer! We’ve pulled together 37 of the most beautiful half up half down hairstyles for the modern bride. They’re soft, feminine and chic and we just know you’ll love them.
A braided half up hairstyle is all about texture and detail. You don’t need to be bohemian inspired to pull off this romantic look. Soft braids suit modern to vintage brides, and even traditional bridal looks.
As this hairstyle is often textured at the sides or back, we recommend a delicate hair vine to scroll along the contours of the braid. Alternatively, a delicate crown to frame your face will offer that perfect finishing touch without taking attention away from your hairstyle or wedding dress.
Not quite a braid and definitely not boring. A twisted half up hairstyle feels relaxed, glamorous, and arguably, more effortless than braids. It’s the perfect look if you wish to adorn your hair with a detailed bridal headpiece or wedding crown. It exudes sophistication without the formality and it’s easily one of our all time favourite bridal looks.
Sometimes you don’t want too many fussy details on your wedding day. This is often the case if your wedding gown is quite elaborate or detailed. For a cleaner and modern look, we love a bit of volume at the crown. It’s a simple detail yet impactful, elongating the face and your overall silhouette.
There’s a certain playfulness that comes with a half up ponytail. You know the look – fresh and relaxed, it almost just needs a pretty bow to complete the look. But a half up hairstyle doesn’t have to feel overly girly. Mess it up or add a few small plaits or braids into the mix for a dreamy look perfect for the modern bride.
Half up wedding hairstyles feels feminine and romantic so we recommend accessories that capture the dreamy yet sophisticated spirit of your bridal look.
Choose from backwards facing headpieces, a delicate wedding crown, statement earrings or a wedding veil positioned at the crown to complement this look perfectly.
Our collections feature some beautiful wedding accessories that pair perfectly with half up hairstyles. And of course, all of our designs are handcrafted in-house and fully customisable so we can accommodate custom requests.

Here’s how to style 5 of our favourite classic wedding ponytails to achieve an effortlessly beautiful look, including tips on how to accessorise them.

It’s no wonder messy wedding updos are so popular. Their relaxed and textured nature is contrasted perfectly by a contemporary, sophisticated and infinitely stylish feel.
While messy wedding hairstyles feel effortless, this doesn’t mean they lack formal elegance. These relaxed hairstyles embody bohemian luxe appeal with romantic and whimsical undertones. Looser buns, tousled curls and soft waves around the face can beautifully frame cheek bones, jaw lines and draw attention to the eyes in the most effortless way.
The inherent uniqueness is also part of the appeal. It’s impossible to replicate a messy updo exactly. So much depends on your hair texture, length, colour, and of course, the experience and expertise of your hairstylist.
To ensure you get the look that’s right for you, we recommend organising a hair trial before your wedding day to ensure your hairstylist is able to capture the style you love. It can sometimes take a few attempts to find the perfect messy hairstyle (or even the perfect hairstylist) for you that captures your vision.
You can never have too much hair inspiration and we’ve pulled together below our favourite 24 messy wedding updos that you’ll love.
Our recommendations for styling a messy updo? We love to style messy hairstyles with hairpieces that feature delicate details that accentuate the organic nature of the updo. Nature-inspired details blend effortlessly with the soft waves and twists of a messy hairstyle and the end result is harmonious, beautiful and elegant.
Wedding crowns, backwards facing headpieces and scattered hair pins style perfectly with messy hairstyles. The key is to think proportions and to choose a piece which picks up the colours and textures in your hair.
The romantic low bun is a timeless choice that combines the elegance of a bun with the relaxed feel of loose, textured hair. This style is perfect for brides seeking a soft and sophisticated look.
The twisted updo is an elegant and sophisticated option that combines twists and knots to create a beautiful, textured hairstyle. This style is perfect for brides who want a classic look with a modern twist.
This hairstyle involves loosely gathering the hair at the nape of the neck and securing it into a bun with bobby pins, allowing soft tendrils to fall naturally around the face and neck. A messy chignon effortlessly complements various wedding themes, from rustic and bohemian to chic and classic.

Whether you’ve fallen in love with the look of long flowy trusses, Hollywood waves, side swept or a sweetly braided bohemian hairdo, there’s a wedding hairstyle for every bride.
Having long hair certainly has its advantages and the options increase exponentially with a few extra inches of hair. You can be a little more creative and adventurous with your hair but remember, your wedding day isn’t the day for experimentation.  Opt for something that you just know suits you.  You will feel so much more comfortable and you will feel more relaxed on the day.
When it comes to choosing the right hairstyle for you, there’s a few factors to think about. Your wedding theme, location, venue, face shape, whether you’ll be wearing a veil, your dress and the neckline on your gown. And most importantly, what feels the most comfortable for you.
We’ve pulled together our favourite wedding hairstyles for long hair. Wispy Hollywood waves, loose curls, half up hairstyles and the chic ponytail. Anything goes on your wedding day and remember, there are no rules.
Loose Hollywood waves are a timeless choice that exudes effortless beauty and romance. This hairstyle is perfect for brides who want a soft, feminine look that works well with various dress styles and wedding themes. We love how loose waves frame the face beautifully and enhance the cheekbones and jawline.Â
A half up hairstyle is a popular choice for brides because it keeps the hair off your face (particularly handy if your wedding will be outside and potentially windy – think beach or seaside). It’s also a great way to secure your veil because it will have a firm bed to rest in. A half up hairstyle has the benefits of up hair and the romantic and glamorous feel of loose curls.
We adore soft loose curls. Messy curls, neat curls, wispy curls. Whatever your preferred look, this look is endlessly romantic and chic. If you have shorter or thin hair, chat to your hairstylist about extensions to lengthen and/or thicken your hairstyle.
We adore soft loose curls. Messy curls, neat curls, wispy curls. Whatever your preferred look, this look is endlessly romantic and chic. If you have shorter or thin hair, chat to your hairstylist about extensions to lengthen and/or thicken your hairstyle.
Loose curls can be styled with halos and wedding crowns for a look that exudes regality. You can also still wear a veil with an all out hairstyle but do ensure your hairstylist knows you want to wear a veil as they’ll have to use a few extra bobby pins to secure the veil into place.
When it comes to choosing accessories for long wedding hairstyles, the world is your oyster. Traditional veils, wedding crowns, flower halos, delicate headbands, hair pins – there’s a lot of options out there for you.
The best accessories will depend on the style of your dress, your personality, your face shape and whether you’d like to wear a veil. Some hairstyles suit a veil or headpiece that is attached to the front of your head, but others look better with a veil that is attached further towards the back.
If you’re planning to wear your hair half up/half down, you will have the perfect foundation to secure a wedding headpiece secured into the back or side. However, if loose flowy curls are more your style, you will just need some bobby pins and a little teasing and your hair piece should stay in place all day long.
We’re here to help. We work with brides worldwide to help them coordinate and choose the perfect wedding accessories from our collections.

When you think curtain bangs, Alexa Chung often comes to mind. This gorgeous look also graces the faces of Sienna Miller, Zooey Deschanel, Camila Cabello and Jennifer Lopez, and has been popping up all over Pinterest.
For some, curtain bangs are fast becoming a trend that’s much loved. For others, it’s a daily necessity. For us, we love a bride with a fringe. There’s so much to love about an effortless centre part and soft wispy strands around the face. It’s a versatile hairstyle which combines bohemian luxe with girl-next-door, and with the right accessories, it makes a bold fashion-forward statement as you walk down the aisle.
The curtain fringe is the choice for those who want a less dramatic fringe without the bluntness. It suits a range of face shapes and frames the eyes in the most effortless way. The fringed look may be slightly parted and it is more feathered in appearance, perhaps even choppy. Generally it’s light and wispy and it’s also the style of choice for those brides who prefer a middle part or are perhaps trying to grow out their fringe.
Here are some of our favourite curtain bangs and fringes that are ultra chic for walking down the aisle.
A soft fringe that’s split in the middle is perfect for the bride who wants to explore having a fringe without going all the way.
Those sections of hair that gracefully fall to the sides of the brows and cheekbones compliments the face without feeling overpowering. In fact, not only is it oh-so-flattering but it’s a practical way for those brides who are trying to grow out their fringes.
We love this style because it’s easy to style and looks beautiful with all lengths of hair from a short layered cut to long flowing lengths.
We love the look of curtain bangs for formal looks because it still feels soft, relaxed and exudes boho chic vibes with long flowing gowns. Whether your fringe is a blunt, straight fringe, wispy bangs, curtain bangs, or side swept bags, all draw attention to the eyes and cheekbones in a way that’s romantic and feminine.
The ponytail is another bridal look we are love. Chic with a hint of the riviera, a bride in a ponytail is a look that screams confident bride who isn’t afraid to be herself.
We’re here to help you style your bridal look. Feel free to send us an email with photos of your wedding dress and bridal hairstyle and we would be happy to send you recommendations and ideas via email.

This year is set to be a year of romantic, effortless luxe hair. A touch of elegance and sophistication paired with a hint of effortless chic. Get ready to see some of the classics transformed ever so slightly into relaxed yet modern adaptations.
Whether you love smooth and sleek, tousled and textured or perfectly imperfect messy hair, these wedding updos are the perfect way to showcase balayage and ombre colouring techniques. We love the way the hairstyles below highlight and accentuate the colours and tones of modern hairstyles.
We’ve pulled together 54 stunning hairstyles we know you will love. And we’ve included some helpful styling tips for all your favourite accessories.
These modern updos are a fusion of braids and classic styles. Despite their intricacy, they don’t look overdone or overwhelming. They’re modern chic personified.
If you’re looking for a veil, we suggest positioning a sheer, simple fingertip or chapel-length veil from the crown or just above the updo. These hairstyles will work perfectly with or without a blusher, and a veil with or without embellishments.
The wedding bun is more chic than ever with wispy tendrils and a low set profile. The chignon in 2018 is luxurious yet relaxed, and will take brides from garden soirees to formal gatherings.
Whether you have long or short hair, there’s a wedding bun for you. Your hairstylist can always add extensions to your hair if you’d prefer a fuller look.
This classic look is all about keeping things chic and sophisticated. We love to style this look with simple hair pins and smaller combs. For a touch of regality, a bridal headband or floral crown is the perfect detail for an elevated bridal look.
For a simpler feel, pair this hairstyle with a thin and delicate headband to frame the face.Â
This year we will see many brides wearing chic ponytails down the aisle. We’ll be seeing glamorous high set wavy ones positioned at the crown to low set ponies tied at the nape of the neck.
For a more polished look, plump up your pony and wrap a strand of hair to cover the elastic. Finish with a pony tail wrap, cuff or velvet ribbon.
The playful ponytail pairs beautifully with pearl drop earrings and minimalist veils. Choose a veil on a small comb to ensure it doesn’t draw attention away from the ponytail. Keep things simple and sophisticated with dainty hair pins scattered to one side.
Part half updo, part side-swept, the new half updo is pure perfection. The braids and twists add that wow-factor, while the loose, wavy locks cascading down your back bring a softness and glamour.Â
Â
For those wanting to make a statement, you really can’t go past the whimsical details of the WHISPER hair pins scattered hair pins. For a touch more detail, the BRIAR-ROSE hair pins are feminine and refined.
And for you wedding veil lovers, this hairstyle would look gorgeous with a simple, chapel length veil like our AUDREY positioned either at the crown to create height or where your braid/twist ends in the middle. But why not take it up a notch, and look at embellished veil number such as our crystal trimmed chapel veil, ETOILE or pearl-detailed LOREN.
Looking for something a little different, modern, yet still chic? May we introduce you to the half updo knot. For boho lovers, mess it up. Or for a more glam look, style it with loose waves and a smooth finish.
Depending on the thickness and volume of your hair, you could either add details to the side of your knot or directly to the knot itself. We love the idea of some delicate hair pin positioned into the bun to really create a beautiful focal point like our TEAROSE or scattered hair pins.
Is your heart set on wearing a veil? Opt for one on a smaller comb, like our AUDREY, DANCER or CALLA LILY veils. But if you’ve fallen in love with any of our veils, we can customise them with smaller combs, to suit you hairstyle.
Position your wedding comb directly above your updo, if the knot volume isn’t too grand; or just underneath to create a beautiful waterfall-like silhouette.Â
The classic wedding half up, half down hairstyle has been a bridal favourite for decades, and for good reason. It’s the perfect balance between polished and relaxed styling, and adapts beautifully to luxe, boho and minimalist bridal looks. On a practical note, the half updo creates the perfect base for your headpiece and veil while keeping your hair off your face.
This hairstyle works beautifully with various hair lengths and textures, and can be customised with accessories to complement your bridal look.
Let’s explore why the half up, half down hairstyle is a favourite among brides and how to style it to perfection.

Looking for something a little different, modern, yet still chic? The half updo knot might be perfect for you. For boho lovers, experiment and mess it up. For a more glamorous and polished look, style it with soft waves and a smooth finish.
We love this style for its relaxed intricacy. Loosely inspired by the fishtail braid, this updated hairstyle feels unrestrained yet formal enough to wear on your wedding day.
Braids and plaits are perfect for brides with thin hair wanting to achieve some volume. Weave in some subtle extensions to help create a romantic updo, while providing that much sort after volume. We are a little obsessed with braids that overlap each other, yet sit flush against the crown.

Initially adored by bohemian and beachy brides, this sophisticated half updo works gloriously for those with natural (or stylist-set) curls. To create a look that showcases your cheekbones, start your twists above your ear level and create a little volume at your crown.

Choosing the right hairstyle to complement your veil is all about balance. Whether you prefer a classic chignon with a cathedral veil or soft waves with a fingertip veil, the key is to select a hairstyle that enhances your overall look, suits your hair length and texture, and makes you feel beautiful and confident on your wedding day.
To get you on your way to finding that stunning hairstyle you’ve been dreaming of, here’s our top 8 wedding hairstyles for bridal veils.
You should never underestimate the potential of perfectly formed curls and waves. Refined and understated, they are perfect for minimalist through to elaborate and decadent wedding gowns.
You might have heard that a veil doesn’t stay in place with all out hair? We’d like to debunk this myth right here. You can definitely wear a veil with loose hair but you will need to ensure the veil is well supported with additional bobby pins hidden under the hair (across the teeth of your veil comb) to hold it in place.
Our favourite veils to wear with this look is a classic tulle veil, a mantilla or Juliet cap veil.
An asymmetrical hairstyle can be perfectly complimented by a range of veils. We love styling them with a classic tulle veil, from fingertip to chapel length and longer.
Position your veil at the crown, with or without a blusher. It will ensure it doesn’t weigh down your hairstyle, while creating the perfect frame for your hair and face.
Low wedding updos, such as your chignons, and romantic messy buns are so fashionable right now. This style is so versatile, and you can choose from a range of veil lengths, with or without a blusher.
We usually suggest securing your veil into the top of your updo. But it also works if you prefer to style your veil from the crown or as a mantilla.
Try adding some bridal pins to the side of your veil, or a comb just above – so that it overlaps the veil. It’ll elevate your entire hairstyle and bridal look.
We’ve heard a lot of brides say that they’re wearing a ponytail on their wedding day so can’t wear a veil. We heard this and took on the challenge to design some beautiful veils for a ponytail. Introducing the BORDEAUX, CATALINA and the AUDREY veils.
Half-up half-down is a faithful style that is complementary to many face shapes and lengths of hair. It is a look that works with or without a fringe. Try it with a soft curl, wave or add some subtle volume to your crown.
This style is fantastic for a veil because it gives you a foundation to secure it. The look works well with cascading, multiple tiered veils as well as fingertip veils. Soft, sweeping and elegant long veils will add a touch of whimsical romance. It is definitely one of the most versatile bridal hairstyles to choose.
High wedding updos such as the ballet bun, are all about elevating your look. This style works well with cascading veils and classic tulle veils. Generally the veil is worn below the updo, but it all depends on the length of the veil and what looks and feels good to you.
A sheer drop veil pairs beautifully with a high wedding updo. Simply position the veil’s comb above the bun and the sheer fabric will gracefully drop over the bun for a look that’s ethereal and romantic.
If styling your veil with a hairpiece, nestle your veil comb between your updo and headpiece to create a beautiful image. Consider wearing a blusher for that touch of mystique. We suggest a delicate veil to contrast the slightly more dramatic hairstyle. It will add softness and grace as it creates an elegant long line.
If you have a hairstyle that is inspired by the Great Gatsby or Mad Men then a juliet cap, birdcage veil or traditional veil might appeal.
