Wedding Hair Piece

October 18, 2010 by Julie 155 Comments

I love lunch dates!

I especially love lunch dates when the weather is gorgeous and you can enjoy your meal al fresco.

I met up with two of my former coworkers, Ryan and Ashley, at Caffé Ritazza in downtown Orlando. I enjoyed a yummy salad while we chatted away outside.

Outside Salad

My salad included:

  • Romaine
  • Beets
  • Carrots
  • Celery
  • Cucumber
  • Mushrooms
  • Broccoli
  • Onion
  • Salsa

Using salsa as a salad dressing is one of my favorite ways to kick a salad up a notch. Salsa brings a lot of moisture, flavor and yummy nutrients to the table.

When I got back to my desk at work, I snacked on a small baggie of pistachios I packed this morning.

Wedding Hair Piece

Okay you fashion-forward ladies! I need your help.

As you may remember from my post on my wedding day hair and makeup trial, I am planning on wearing a pink flower in my hair on my wedding day.

My Wedding Hair

(The pink flower will replace the yellow one in the above picture.)

My veil will peek out underneath my up-do, just in case you were curious about how that will work. I am wearing this veil I had made by an Etsy designer and am anxiously awaiting its arrival. (It is due on my doorstep on October 22.)

Anyway, I am having some reservations about the pink flower I currently have to wear in my hair.

This is the pink flower I currently have:

Option One

I love it, but it’s a little big.

I am considering buying another option…

I think this one is gorgeous:

Option Two

And this one appeals to me too:

Option Three

Now I ask you…

Which pink flower hair piece do you like best? The first, second or third flower?

    I really like option 3! I think that look will look great though no matter what flower you choose.

    I think it depends on the theme of your wedding. Number 1 is the most casual in my opinion, followed by number 3, with number 2 being the most formal. I like them all but it really depends on your dress and the event.

    Option 2 – elegant and pretty. It mixes white(bridal) with pretty pink!

    Totally out of the majority here, but I LOVE #3.
    I like how the flower looks layered. So pretty!
    I know ANY of the flowers that you choose will look GORGEOUS 😀

    I must be weird because I like #3. LOL However, #2 looks like it is shipping from Australia. I don’t think I would risk that it might not get there in time for $64.

    I’d go with the one you already have and put the extra funds toward a nice evening with Ryan down the line rather than one more expensive cost right before the wedding. That won’t make or break your day at ALL. No. 1 looks most like a real flower, too, and a nice touch, if you’re aiming for a flower.

    #3 is my favorite, but I do like #2 a lot too – I think it would look really elegant. #3 would be a little more girly and whimsical.

    Option 2! The pearl beads gives extra romantic flare. And less material keeps the hair piece elegant.

    Hi Julie, I’ve read your blog for a long time but only lurked till now.
    I love both the first and second one. I am leaning towards the second one though – I could see you taking the second one and using your awesome craftiness and attaching it to a fetching woven hat to wear in the spring/summer – you’ll always have an awesome reminder of your wedding day with you:D
    The first flower looks the most “real” because of the center – but with the edging on your veil, the petals might look too crinkly. I can’t wait to see your final photos after your wedding!

    I too am going against the consensus, I think option 2 is my least favorite…I think options 1 and 3 are the most light and carefree looking. Option 2 doesn’t look very “young” to me because I think it looks super formal compared to the others…but I have no idea what your dress or decorations are like so perhaps super formal is best! Whichever you chose you really can’t go wrong.

    #2 seems to be the winner. I prefer it by far… BUT – no one will be comparing what you wear to anything. You will look gorgeous and you can probably work with the size of the flower and your long hair to diminish the size of #1. Use what you have and don’t spend another penny on something else you already have. The first flower is incredibly gorgeous and you hair will look lovely offside like that.
    Only 2 weeks left.

    Have you considered using real flowers? My florist included a beautiful flower pin that matched my bouquet and it was such a lovely touch. I love the way it matched my flowers and I think it pulled everything together!
