    B2B24-I personally like the low bun stylies-maybe with a flower or two in it?
    You're being far more brave than me-I'm going for normal hair with a couple of curls!!
    I've just found out I've got to have an operation on my nose at the begining of March :( The Doc says it will take about 6 weeks to mend totally, so I'll be fine for the wedding, but it's taken time out of my wedding schedule :eek:!! Also-how many jokes do you reckon I'm going to get about having a nose job done for the wedding?!! :rotfl:

    Oh no Magiboo! So sorry to hear that, just let us know if we can be of any help!

    Bride2Be24 - I like the fourth one best, have copied it onto my hairstyle sheet... Waiting for date of hair and makeup trial but have asked for February, just in case I need to rethink anything. Just hoping they dont think I am mad for wanting fresh flowers and a veil with blusher...

    3 more RSVPs came in the post today - now have nearly 20! Have also booked meeting with florist for saturday to discuss final flower order.

    Will you be using a hairpiece or something similair? You may want to ask the hairdressers opinion before you get your heart set on a particular style as I remember seeing your engagement shoot pics and some of those do's require a LOT of hair! I quite like the last one although I think you would need hair pieces put in for that. I would worry about fake hair looking fake esp if you have coloured/highlighted hair IYKWIM?

    Ach, what do I know, I can't even find a fudging hairdresser lol

    I have noooo idea about hair, was thinking of just long and curly but no idea what will suit the dress!!

    At the moment I have longish ( below shoulder length) brownish hair and it hangs pretty much poker straight with a centre parting. Its also quite fine. I love my hair permed as it gives it some life and looks good whether I do anything with it or not!

    Am not a girlie girl (despite the dress I have gone for) so even though my OH bought me some GHD's for christmas I have no idea how to use them. The one time I straightened my hair I was so surprised that a) it looked nice and b) I didn't burn myself doing it. Dont laugh but had my laptop in front of me with a vid from youtube showing me how to do it!
    Married the love of my life on 28th April 2011 :T

    Thank you for your kind wishes, I'm glad I'm having it done because it will mean I won't sound like a have a cold when I say my vows, but I am a bit scared too..
    B2B24-i'll be a bit more specific..I like pics 3 and 4, especially 4! Do you know what you are doing about a veil yet? I've had to change my plans (hair down, bit pinned up for the veil and tiara thing on top) because the hairdresser says I would look "over egged" with a veil AND tiara, so now I'm having veil for the day, tiara for the evening! :D
    Becks-sorry but..:rotfl:re the straighteners!!
    Oh-I nearly forgot! We ordered a banner saying "Mr & Mrs magicboo welcome you to their wedding celebrations" to hang over the entrance to the marquee and a pen with our names and wedding date on for us to sign the register with via vistaprint yesterday-both free, of course :money:!
