SMY: WEDDING DAY HAIR! I need inspiration!

Hi ladies, I would love to see some wedding day updo's! I have very long, thick hair and my wedding is in June so I'm looking for some inspiration :-)

here are a few of my faves!!

Here are my inspirations:

Or maybe a braid...not sure yet.

I already had my hair trial, but I don't think the stylist really understood what I was wanting, so I compiled some more inspiration and think I might just do it myself:)

I had coarse, thick hair to my mid-back.

I've read that the bridal hairstyle should match the bride's dress, hair texture and facial features.  Good hairdressers/hairstylists should be able to give you some ideas.  I found a really nice one that when I met him, I felt so confident I'd be in good hands that I did not feel the need for a trial.  Good luck in your search!
