Bridal Beauty: Hot Hair Flowers for Your Wedding

For most brides-to-be, picking the right hairstyle for their wedding day is a huge decision – and often a very tough one to make. When newlywed Kristin Bauer (True Blood ) was trying to decide on the perfect updo for her rustic at-home wedding something interesting came to mind.

“I love my hair up, but guys seem to love it when a woman wears her hair down,” she said in a recent interview. To get to the bottom of her style dilemma, she decided to ask her then-fiance, musician Abri van Straten, what he would prefer.

“He said he liked my hair best the way I wore it at our engagement dinner,” says Bauer. “It was down with a flower, so that’s what I wore for our wedding.”

Good call, Kristin! We love the look too. (Kristin's hair-flower was designed by Folly) Here are three hair flowers for brides we love. This original, handmade bridal hair piece (on left) designed by twigs and honey is available made-to-order on Etsy. The simple gardenia piece you see here(top) from My Diva’s Closet is just so chic – and it can be yours for just $12.50 (what a bargain!). Oh, and check out Eliza from Jennifer Behr ($185) – isn’t she a beauty? The gorgeous hand-pressed orchid petals are made of silk charmeuse that’s hand-twisted onto a hairpin for easy style. It’s sure to be a show-stopper on your wedding day.
