Now that you have the perfect gown the only thing left to consider is your hair and makeup.  Elegant wedding hair updos add a touch of class to any formal wedding.  You can add an assortment of hair accessories to your updo to give it totally different looks depending on your gown and wedding theme.

For instance, if you are wearing a tiara style veil, you might want the curls to cascade back and away from the tiara.  If you are wearing a circular crown type headpiece you would probably want the curls to come up through the center.  Perhaps your veil is a simple comb style with lace in the back and net to come up and over the face.  You have more freedom in elegant wedding hair updos the simpler your veil is. 

Some brides like to leave wispy tendrils of hair in the front and at the nape of the neck.  The hair is brought up into the high ponytail before placing the curls and bits of hair are left randomly to be curled and wisped.  Often delicate ribbons and flowers such as baby’s breath are woven through the curls and bits are loosely floating down the sides.  Again, depending on the style of your veil, you can compliment your elegant wedding hair updo with a variety of stylish and dainty adornments. 

Elegance is often simple as well.  Sometimes a simple upswept bun with a few random tendrils is all that is called for.  There is also more freedom in choice of veils if the hairstyle is simple.   If your veil is layer upon layer of lace and net you probably wouldn’t want a cascade of curls.  On the other hand, if the veil is simple a fuller amount of curls and adornments in your updo might just add the finishing touches called for to complete the look.
