This blog is about bridal hairstyles that you could use.
Choosing your hairstyle on your wedding day is a big deal.
Some brides want their hair up and some prefer it down.
Then, you should also consider whether an updo would be perfect for your veil or a down style would be better.
Should your face frame your face and drawn attention to your jewelry?
You can also dye your hair or get a haircut to freshen things up.
There’s a also a trend where the bride cuts her hair right before the wedding so she’ll have a different, updated look on the big day.
I don’t think I would do that, but I love the symbolism of haircuts and a new beginning.
There are so many styles to choose from for your wedding day hair.
From high ponytails to low-slicked-back buns and even simple curls flowing over your shoulders, I’m more than certain you’ll find the right one for you.
You could even add accessories to your hair to give it an added touch of gorgeous.
Keep in mind though that you also need to consider seasons.
If it’s a summer wedding, I would opt for an up-do. A winter wonderland wedding would call for a hairstyle that can also protect you from the cold.
But if you’re having trouble deciding the perfect hairdo, worry not!
Here are 26 Bridal Hairstyles to choose from.
1. Exquisite low chignon
This bridal hairstyle is elegant.
It’s also a practical hairdo, especially for veils that are placed at the nape of the bride’s neck.
I like that this bride left a few hair loose and curled, adding a touch of understated elegance.
With a chignon like this, you can show off statement earrings or necklace.
2. Twisted low ponytail
This ponytail has a lot of elements combined – perfect for a special day, of course.
Rather than having the usual ponytail, why not add loose braids, curls, and twists for a more dramatic hairstyle?
I like how they have given this bride some volume at the top of her hair so that the hairstyle isn’t so flat.
The beach wave curls complete the look!
3. Simple half-Up, half-down
If you are looking for something simple, then here’s an idea for you.
I like how she pinned half of her hair back with a beautiful floral hair clip.
This way her hair won’t be in her face all of the time, making it easier to manage throughout the day and helping her look great on photos as well.
The added tendrils of hair elevate this hairstyle, making her look delicate and gorgeous for this special day.
4. Curls on curls
This bridal hairstyle is meant for a princess.
The curls in this hairstyle provides so much volume, making her look glamorous.
It’s another take on the half-up half down hairstyle we all love.
5. Simple curls and a headband
This is another simple hairstyle that you could do.
I like how this bride has left her hair down, curled it, and added a floral headband.
I also like how these curls are loose, creating soft waves – just right for romantic vibes!
6. Messy low bun
Another simple idea that you could do is this: a low messy bun.
This is a quick and hassle-free hairstyle that allows you to show off your décolletage and gorgeous statement earrings.
The style of this bun goes very well with the style of the dress, it has an almost boho-chic vibe to it.
This wedding hairstyle is so perfect for summer, don’t you think so?
7. Volume half-up, half down
Another simple and gorgeous hairstyle we absolutely love!
A practical hairstyle like a half-up, half down makes sure your hair won’t get in your face – perfect if it’s a little windy at the venue.
8. Simple crimped waves
This classic style is absolutely stunning.
This gives me beach vibes – flowy and romantic.
I love how this hairstyle works so well for the bride here.
If your tresses are just as long, this bridal hairstyle would look great on you!
9. A chignon with pearls
Here’s another low bun that you could do.
The addition of the pearl pins adds a touch of elegance and class to this look.

This style would look amazing on any bride with long hair, no matter the hair color.
12. A knotted bun half-up, half-down
Here’s an interesting yet stunning hairstyle.
I like how the braid creates a knotted bun effect and how this bride’s hair won’t bother her on her big day.
This would be a great hairstyle for brides with long, thick hair.
13. Throw in a ribbon
For this hairstyle, you can incorporate your favorite ribbon.
This is a great way to add something borrowed or something blue to your wedding.
I like how simple this hairstyle is and how any bride can wear their hair like this if they have medium to long-length hair.
14. Another braided bun
I love these braided buns.
They add so much volume and texture to the hairstyle.
This hairstyle works so well with this bride’s hair color as well.
Again, this up-do, like all of the other up-dos exposes the gorgeous earrings.
15. Hiding the pony
This bridal hairstyle is a good example of how to have a half-up, half-down style without showing that your hair is tied up.
The way this bride has clipped and placed her hair gives the effect that her hair is tying itself up.
This way you don’t see any hair ties or hairpins and it looks more elegant.
16. Twisted up-do
The up-do with claw clips is so trendy these days.
This is a more elegant, classier version of that.
I also love the style of this dress with the open back and the necklace that goes toward the back instead of the front.
Having an up-do exposes your back and shows off that beautiful dress.
17. Volume is key
Teasing your hair or making the hairstyle less severe gives you the volume that you want.
I love this high up-do with all of the twists and tendrils of hair.
This hairstyle works so well with this bride’s hair color as it complements the highlights.
18. Enchanting braid
This bridal hairstyle is giving me “Rapunzel” vibes.
This braid with the floral pieces incorporated into the hair is lovely and romantic.
I like how different this braid style is – with the tiny floral arrangements strategically placed all over.
If you like a dainty and feminine look, this is the wedding hairstyle for you!
19. A classic half-up, half-down style
It doesn’t always need to be trendy especially when you’re wearing a classic wedding dress.
This hairstyle would complement a romantic and elegant dress.
20. Low ponytail, half-braided style
I like the different hairstyles used in this one bridal hairstyle.
Combining this loose half-braid with the low pony is just everything!
Brides who prefer a less-severe hairstyle will appreciate this stunning style.
21. A slicked-back low bun
Most brides like this classic wedding hairstyle.
In fact, this seems to be the go-to look.
And why wouldn’t it be?
It’s classy, practical, and relatively easy to style.
And if you want to elevate this classic hairstyle, just add accessories.
22. Low bun and floral bouquets
This low bun is such a beautiful style to emulate.
The added floral accessory gives off dainty, feminine vibes.
This is another fishtail braid that looks intricate, but easy to style.
23. As simple as it gets
For the brides who prefer this hair down style, this is for you.
This hairstyle shows off the beautiful long hair of the bride.
I like how they have pinned back the front part of the bride’s hair as well.
This way her hair won’t bother her throughout the day.
24. Another messy bun
I like this messy bun look.
This is for the brides who like a bit of texture and volume.
The added floral hairpiece is also very cute.
25. Another half-up, half-down
Yet another half-up, half-down hairstyle with a veil.
If you have long beautiful hair, then you should show it off.
These curls are gorgeous, framing her equally stunning bridal makeup.

Here is another braided messy bun.
Again, I like how much texture and volume this hairstyle is able to give you.
This bride’s hair color works so well with this hairstyle.
If you have highlights, a balayage, or ombre hair, this hairstyle is for you.
Whether you choose an up-do, half-up half-down, or fully loose hair, make sure that it doesn’t take away the attention from your wedding gown.
It should complement the dress, including the veil as well.
Whichever idea you choose to go with, I’m sure you’ll look every bit the stunning bride you are on the big day.
Until next time, happy wedding planning!
