like the girl in the middle with the brown hair but also the big blonde picture, but that looks like it will fall out if I fart!

curls would be lovely, esp if you have a wide dress (IYKWIM - big skirt, not suggesting you are wide!)

I was told not to have something too different from normal style or I wouldn't feel like me.

i had straighened "down" hair, with front section pulled back, tiara on top, then a small plait of the pulled back hair down the back, she put these little pearl clips in too which looked really pretty (I got them from Clares Accessories!!)

If you are worried your h air might frizz, maybe think of a simple "up" do, with some curls to frame your face? You want to be able to relax as much as poss, not be worrying about you hair!

The style in the middle is lovely, not too formal and there are probably lots of hidden clips to stop it flaling out! My hair was similar, but straight :)

smack 'wedding hair' into Google - you'll be overwhelmed!

How formal is wedding? if cathedral or similarly formal, definitely updo, otherwise I think half-up looks very good with strapless dress. Are you having a veil?

My hair is longish and straightish and I had it like \link{http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0WADhAvsb5AIS6R4dI0!wnt!uGoJcf3JZz5UIXR6BLscgGjSoyXvc3cuOLHU8MV9xqUUJIV4DdyyObgAg1KFI3bHz41qWw92AhE7A1Q0LCgGmfYH5oLBIgyGMkUKUSgAAAP****8/perfect%20hair.jpg?dc=4675575919173938028\this} - everyone now seems to have side partings and/or tiaras but neither suited me at all - I just had a couple of flowers stuck in at the back.

Strapless dress? I think your hair down, soft curls and the front swept back to give you something to put your tiara on.

think you are right...GHD curls perhaps, I have a phobia of rollers!!!

i had my hair - which is long, thick, dark and wavyish - up, in sort of little pin curl things (99 clips!) that really shone on the day.. with a couple of wispy bits at the sides to soften. it was really gorgeous and so well done it didn't wobble at all (v camp man at toni & guy did it)

GHD curls are really nice and loose, not like the auld granny rollers!!

agree with the soft curl hair down thing, and also would avoid tiaras, but that's a personal thing I guess, I find them very footballers' wives
have fun tonight!!

I didn't have a veil - felt really silly in it! My tiara was all pearls rather than diamonds and it was beautiful! It really finished off the look. My dress was strapless too - I didn't wear a necklace, but wore really nice dangly earrings instead.

My wedding hair is \link{http://www.members.lycos.co.uk/wedding18sept04/\here} (click on photos then the day) My sister had something similar and it looked much nicer cos she's got more hair than me!

Oh just to add, my friends veil fell off so many times on her wedding day that it got chucked behind a chair.
