Lately I feel like I am so far behind… like I am forgetting so many things.  I am not sure if it is just because we are only two and a half months away, or if it is because I am really forgetting stuff.  One thing that did keep slipping my mind was hair and makeup…yeah I know, how on earth could that be something I forget!? I received quite a few recommendations from vendors down in the Keys, but I think I am going to go with Hair in the Tropics who was recommended by our wedding planner, Charlene Lopez.  Now that’s the easy part.  I made the phone call and of course was not prepared at all for the loads of questions, all of which I should have expected and been prepared to answer.  Do I want to come to the salon, or do I want them to come to me? Well, that depends on the cost.  What type of hair do I have? Have I taken into account my hair style and texture when looking at images? Um…not really. What time do you need to be ready? Um… I think around 4:30 ish… WOW I am so unorganized!!

So I ended the call, promising the stylist I would send her pictures of hair and makeup that I thought I wanted.  I have been collecting pictures, and although I have done a post about this before, I now know exactly what I am doing as far as hair accessories so I am having to rethink my original hair thoughts.  Actually the picture above is the exact flower I will be wearing (but in white) sans veil. Below are my choices for hair…please help me choose!!

Since getting engaged, I had always thought I knew exactly what I wanted to do for my hairstyle. However, as the day draw closers I find myself more indecisive than ever! As noted in an earlier entry, I will be having two dresses that day….the formal wedding gown and the party dress for some dancing later on in the night. I know that I want to change up my hair for each of these dresses so that one will be with an updo and the other being down. What I can’t decide is which one should go with what style. Even before I decided on having a second dress, I had thought that I would be going with a half down do with curls for the big day. Then, I tried my hair up one day and many of my friends said they liked that look better.  What’s your opinion? Here are examples of updos and downdos that I’m leaning towards. I want to do both, but just don’t know which to wear for what.
