We love the look of brides with their hair swept off their shoulders on their wedding day, fastened with a crystal clip, flower crown or a cathedral-length veil. The days of wearing a tight, bobby-pinned chignon aren’t exactly over, but this classic updo has undergone a transformation of sorts, giving way to the soft, subtle updos we’ve seen making their way down the aisle.
Braids, twists and the new style of buns might be more casual these days, but you’ll still look every bit the put-together bride with these romantic and modern styles.
