Bridal Veil Hairstyles

//  by The Wedding Shoppe

A veil, flowing seamlessly, is often the finishing touch that accentuates a bride’s beauty on her special day. But how you choose to style your hair beneath this cascading accessory can dramatically influence your overall wedding day look. Exploring the possibilities of bridal veil hairstyles helps ensure that when you say ‘I do’, you’ll look every bit the princess you dreamed of being.

Twisted and Pinned Back Elegance

Drawing inspiration from the romantic eras gone by, the twisted and pinned-back style is all about combining a vintage feel with modern elegance. It’s perfect for brides who wish for a soft, effortless look. After twisting sections of your hair and pinning them in place, let a few loose curls fall around your face. This bridal hair style pairs beautifully with a veil, creating a dreamy ensemble that captures hearts.

Classic Charm: Down with Loose Big Curls

For brides leaning towards a classic, timeless look, nothing beats the beauty of hair left down in loose, big curls. This wedding veil hairstyle not only brings out the volume and richness of your hair but also offers a stunning backdrop for the veil to flow over. The gentle waves complement the veil’s grace, allowing both your hair and the veil to shine.

The Versatile Half Up, Half Down

One of the most beloved hairstyles by brides worldwide is the half up, half down style. It beautifully marries the elegance of an updo with the natural charm of letting your hair flow. With this style, the veil can be pinned at the base of the crown, ensuring that the top’s intricacies aren’t hidden while the rest cascades effortlessly down the back.

Bun with Bridal Hair Comb or Clip

There’s a distinct grace to buns—they’re neat, elegant, and versatile. By pairing a bun with a bridal hair comb or clip, you’re adding an extra layer of sparkle to your wedding ensemble. Depending on whether you opt for a low or high bun, the veil can be adjusted to sit snugly beneath or atop the bun, respectively. The added accessory, whether a comb or clip, provides a visual point of interest and a touch of glamor.
