Congratulations, You Bought Your Wedding Dress! What Comes Next?

Congratulations on your engagement and wedding dress purchase! We know the process of finding the perfect dress can be a long one, so you must feel relieved to have finalized this decision.

However, the next step is vital for creating your aesthetic as a bride. We’re talking all about hair and make-up styles that will suit your wedding dress and suit your face shape!

Expert bridal hair and make-up can make all the difference on your big day. Below, we explore wedding dress styles and suggestions for hair and make-up looks to complement each style.

With that being said, this is not a mandatory list. Feel free to choose any look that best suits your wedding dress and the type of celebration you’ll be hosting.

Classic

Generally, classic hairstyles are polished and elegant, with smooth lines and simplicity in appearance. Bridal updos are very popular for this category of dresses because they will help show off the neckline of your wedding dress (a very important factor).

Keep it simple and straight for your hair, but add some soft curls for the body. One great choice is the low bun with tendrils framing the face.

For make-up, choose a complementary color palette that is either cool or warm (depending on your wedding season) and go for neutral tones to let your wedding dress shine!

Grecian/Romantic

The Grecian style is either a strapless, sweetheart or low-cut gown with many details in the bodice and skirt area.

If you choose one of these styles for your dress, keep the hair simple and sleek, but add drama to the face with a bold eye and matte red lip.

Vintage/Silhouette

A silhouette-style wedding dress has a beautiful shape that calls for a vintage hairstyle. Go for an updo with plenty of curls clustered around the face.

The bun should be off-center to draw attention away from the shoulders, which is perfect if you plan to wear a statement necklace.

Choose a matte color palette of pinks and browns with soft eyes and red lips for make-up.

These tips might seem simple, but you’ll be surprised how much they’ll change your look when paired with the right wedding gown.

But you’ll need a stylist, make-up artist, and other professional vendors for all this. And that means you’ll need the expertise of a professional wedding planner to oversee your team of vendors and every other aspect of planning your wedding.
