When I got married last fall, I didn’t think twice about what to do with my hair. It had to be up. Having such thick hair {with a mind of its own} I knew it  needed to be up and out of the way so I didn’t have to worry about it or mess with it throughout the night.

let’s face it- the minute it was time to dance, I would start sweating, and if was down, it would end up in a regular pony tail holder. boooooring.

So with fellow brides like me in mind, I gathered a few of my favorite up-dos for inspiration. When doing my own hair trial, I found that adding a little bit of a messy twist helps keep thick hair up and out of your face. {thank goodness!}

:: so, how did/will you wear your hair for your wedding day ::

It’s so easy to take cool pictures on the ole cell phone these days. With instagram, hipstamatic and other apps, we have so many ways to be a “photographer”. And while I love all of those apps, I also love spending time with my real camera. I am by no means a professional but I do love learning and playing behind the lens. In doing so, I think I need a few of these awesome accessories for my SLR and my family’s old-real-film-needed camera, don’t you?

I can’t get enough of these camera straps from Bloom Theory. (I want them all!) Pair the flirty strap with this La Sardina camera from lomography and you have the perfect match. And to top it off, why not get a stylish bag to lug it all around? I think the Bossi Bag is the only way to go. Cute, stylish and practical.

Professional or not you’ll be the cutest girl out there snapping away
