    Hey Bees, I'm not really worried about the heat, so don't let the fact that my wedding is in July affect your vote.  I am going crazy trying to decide if I should wear my hair up or down with my wedding dress!  I've posted me in my dress a few times, but here it is again.. sorry :)  And also a pic of me with my hair down, so you can see what it looks like. How about some style ideas??

    I appreciate your help!

    How do you usually wear it? People keep asking me if I will grow my hair out now that I'm planning a wedding, and I always say no. If I don't wear my hair long in my everyday life, why would I grow it out just for the wedding? I think you should wear it however you are must comfortable. If you are comfortable either way, then I vote for down because your hair is beautiful!

    I had the same dilemma.  Since I almost never wear my hair up (except in a ponytail) I didn't want my wedding day hairstyle to be drastically different from how I normally look.  I ended up with a half up/half down and found it to be a good compromise- I still looked like myself, a little bit fancier, and it was wedding appropriate.

    Is your hair long enough that it would come down to the top of your dress (in front)?  If it is, you might want to wear it up. or half up/half down... just a thought.  You don't want your hair hiding the pretty neckline.

    Personally, I'm strongly considering wearing my hair down (maybe pinned up a little on the sides to stay out of my face) for the wedding.  I wear my hair up most days (just out of laziness), but I feel most attractive when it's "done" and down.

    I think up would look better with the neckline of your dress, but the pic with you of your hair down looks great too!

    The color of your hair is beautiful! I would suggest leaving it down, or at least half down, so that the color of your hair will make you skin glow.

    I definitely vote for "down." You definitely don't want to hide that pretty red hair!!

    Your hair is GORGEOUS!!! I vote for down, maybe with some loose curls. You're so pretty, you'll look great no matter what :-)

    I voted "Half up and half down" and I LOVE cradosta's suggestion!  I think the veil would sit so nicely if you had a little bump for it to pin on to while still showing off the beautiful color of your hair.

    I say either down or half up/half down (even though it wasn't one of the given choices). Your have great red hair that wont really show when it's up. Good Luck!!
