Romantic, Casual Wedding Hairstyles for Long Hair

‘Casual’ and ‘Wedding Hairstyles’ do not really seem to go together, right? But we have had many emails asking for ideas for more relaxed hairstyles. And why not – the Bride’s hairstyle can be as casual and relaxed as the theme of the wedding is. After all, we sometimes forget that a wedding should, in the first place, be romantic and not just a formal affair.

And some weddings naturally lend themselves to a more romantic and relaxed look. A beach or a horseback ceremony in the hills, for example, calls for a more comfortable hairstyle. Braids and half-up, half-down hairstyles are the easiest to manage and accessorize. Accessories like jeweled tiaras and bands and large ornaments can glam up your casual hairstyle and make them instantly chic!
