The Very Best Hairstyle & Veil
       For Your Outdoor Wedding

·     Have the top of the hairstyle be smoothed back off the face and
brought to curls at the crown in a busy arrangement. The beauty of
this style is that a veil can sit on top or underneath the barrel curls.  

    ·     When the veil sits on top … the wind takes the veil to one side
    or another which is not very pretty in photography.

    ·     When the veil sits underneath the barrel curls it stays in
    place, is less work for the bride and makes for pretty
    photography.  The wind is also playful in this position.

·     For a short hairstyle…Birdcage Wedding Veils work very well.

·     When the hairstyle appears loose with a side part and messy crown
pinning creates a photography issue…the mess usually gets more and
more messy in the wind.

·     Leaving sweeping side bangs or ends loose creates the same issue.  
Images with hair across the face are thrown out and never viewed.

·     Create a classic elegant style featuring a crown high chignon which
will stay in place through all kinds of weather.

·     Wearing the hair down…lots of spray, does not work.  The wind just
takes it and undoes it.

·     Wearing the hair pulled back on the sides and top helps, but still
creates many of the same issues, hair across the face.

·     When the bride wears things that move in the wind, the bride is always
faced directly into the wind.  This limits again the images available to shoot.

Perhaps the biggest challenge is to have your hair done early enough in
the day to
have a wedding at a time of day that you can avoid the
strong winds.
