getting my hair did

this saturday, i had my hair trial for the wedding (less than 8 weeks.....AHHHHHH!!!!).

i thought i wanted a low knot....but i totally trust my hair girl, so i told her low, off to the side...and just gave her free reign.

and i LOVE what she came up with!

i tucked those 2 rogue pieces on the top inside....but i couldn't even see them with the veil on. and the one piece that fell out the bottom will be tucked in. basically, i'll have this shape....but with no random curls around it...just the knot.

see how you can see it over my left ear from the front? LOVE that! i put on my earrings when i got home....they are so perfect! please excuse my scary red eyeballs.

here it is with the veil, and my comb at the salon....it's a little crooked, but we wanted to get the general idea....i love it. and it's really secure on my head...which is awesome, cuz i plan on wearing my veil the whole time....its got pearls and crystal beads all around the edge....

and to make my saturday even better, i get a message from my oh-so-talented friend Mrs. Southern Belle.

she finished my bracelet!!! i bought the supplies FOREVER ago, and gave them to her after she so graciously offered to make it for me. and this is the final result....i am IN. LOVE.

see how the shape and sparlke mirror my hair comb? and my earrings? oh, i cannot wait to put EVERYTHING on....i think the first time i see all the accessories together will be the wedding day! eep!
