With long hair your wedding updo options are pretty much endless. Braids, buns and chignons galore are all at your disposal. The first thing to do when thinking about your hairstyle is to consider your venue. What’s the formality factor? Is it outdoor or indoor? A slick ballerina bun would look perfectly at home in a ballroom setting, while some messy, tousled curls pinned back with flowers would blow beautifully in a beach breeze. Then, look to your wedding dress neckline and veil to really narrow down your hairstyle—some necklines lend themselves better to updos than others.
