Winter Wedding Hairstyles

Wedding Hairstyles | Celebrity Updo HairstylesThe perfect hairstyle will bring your entire wedding day look together. The loose and beachy styles of summer may seem out of place or too "undone" for the winter months, when elegance reigns supreme. These are some of the best winter wedding hair ideas.

There will be several factors that go into deciding on your wedding hairstyle. There is the length and texture of your hair, of course, but also the formality of your wedding, the headpiece and wedding jewelry you plan to wear, and even the neckline of your bridal gown. This is why most brides will not have their hair trial until a month or two before the wedding. Any sooner, and you won't have all of the information that you need to make the best decision.

Winter weddings tend to be more formal and elegant than those in the summer, and therefore more elaborate hairstyles work very well. Updos are often the best choice, as they create a very polished look and as a bonus, will allow any interesting details on the shoulders of your gown to show. Many winter brides opt for a lace shrug or other special wrap, and keeping your hair up off your shoulders will look the best with this sort of accent piece.

You cannot go wrong with a classic chignon for a wedding in the winter, or at any other time of the year, for that matter. Make it special by wearing a glamorous headpiece like a crystal or rhinestone clip on the side. If you want to amp up the drama factor, wear a cluster of white feathers in your chignon. It is a fresh and modern update on a classic style. The feathers also happen to tie in beautifully with an all-white Winter Wonderland wedding theme.

Another option for an updo for a winter wedding is a braided bun. This is a fantastic style for brides who have long hair. The braided bun is romantic and looks wonderful with lace bridal gowns. Having your hair pulled back will allow your wedding jewelry to be better seen. Pearl earrings look lovely with this vintage inspired hairstyle. Finish it off with a scattering of pearl hairpins tucked around the bun.

Having a city-chic winter wedding? Then opt for a sleek and easy style like a low side ponytail. Have your stylist loosely sweep your hair to one side, then decorate it with a jeweled ponytail wrap. Though simple, the style can be surprisingly elegant, as long as it is smooth and sleek. This is a great complement to a slinky charmeuse wedding gown, particularly one with a low cut back.

Finally, there is the half up wedding hairdo, which is a favorite all year round. In the winter, go for a more polished version; save the tousled look for a beach wedding in the summer months. Add the right amount of elegance with a crystal beaded double headband or a wide satin headband decorated with a jeweled ornament. This classic style is sure to please at any time of the year.
