One Fine Day Wedding Consultation Blog

an important hairstyle for an important day

    Now, this may or may not seem like a daunting task, but in my opinion, choosing a hairstyle for your wedding day is a relatively large decision! This article from The Knot is a great starting point for choosing that perfect look, as well as this one from Martha Stewart Weddings!

    Typically when deciding on a hairstyle, the first decision to be made is: up do, down, or half up? While there are plenty of gorgeous styles in each of these categories, it is also imperative that you take into account the look of your dress, the style of your venue, and the texture/length/strength of your hair. You will want to make sure that your hairstyle compliments your dress, without competing with it.

        

 

    Say you want those lucious, flowing curls on your wedding day, but your hair isn't quite as long as you would have hoped for? Talk to your stylist about the possible use of extensions! These accessories have come a long way, and when used correctly, it's impossible to tell that they aren't your real hair!

    Another new trend is the bridal headpiece! These pieces have been used by brides hosting all kinds of weddings and can be played down for a Southern Soiree, or blinged out for a Modern Marvel!

    

Check out these amazing pieces from Florabond on Etsy!

 

Please share your favorite wedding hairstyles with the girls here at One Fine Day!

wedding tree thumbprint guest book idea

I've seen this before but it's so worth repeating! Have your guests "leaf" their finger/thumb prints on the tree and sign next to it so they help create a beautiful piece of art for your new home after your wedding.

Love this one from Etsy.

Stumped on a meaningful gift for your bridesmaids, but yet one that won't break your bank?  We came across this idea on etsy, and it is the perfect combination of meaningful and inexpensive! Take a simple pair of earrings (whether you bought or made them) and simply "hang" them on a decorative piece of cardstock that you have either written or typed up a quote, thank you, or short note on. The earrings along with a personal written touch are the perfect combination to show your bridesmaids how much they mean to you! Also, you could even use their favorite color as the theme, or maybe write meaningul song lyrics the two of your share instead of a quote! Share your gift ideas with us at One Fine Day.

Hope everyone has had a fabulous weekend! Stuck on a favor for your guests with a personal touch?  Here is a unique idea found on etsy.  Called "Tookies," it is a cookie mixture in a cute jar.  Perfect item to add your names and wedding date to, and not only can your guests enjoy your favorite thing to bake, but they can reuse the jar the mix comes in! Also, they are reasonably priced! If not for everyone at your wedding, maybe use it as favors for your bridesmaids or great for a sweet birthday party or baby shower favor! What are you thinking of this sweet favor?
