Choosing your hairstyle is one of the loveliest parts of getting ready for a wedding. Whether you are aiming for a sophisticated look or something more relaxed, the right style will complement your outfit and feel comfortable from the ceremony to the last dance.

What Hairstyles Suit Round Faces for Wedding Guests?

If you have a round face, look for a hairstyle that adds a little length and a touch of sophistication.

  • Side-swept waves: soft, cascading waves swept to one side create an elegant look while adding length to your face.
  • High bun: a high bun gives you a polished appearance and adds height, which helps to balance a rounder face shape.
  • Half up, half down: this versatile style adds volume at the crown, creating the illusion of a longer face while still showing off your hair down.
  • Soft chignon: a low, loose chignon with a few strands left out to frame your face is both chic and flattering.

What Was the Wedding Hairstyle Trend in 2024?

2024 was all about embracing natural texture. These were the favourite wedding hairstyles:

  • Textured updos: think soft messy buns and textured chignons that work with your hair's natural movement and volume.
  • Braided details: braids woven into updos or half-up styles add an intricate, romantic touch.
  • Hair accessories: from pearl clips to floral crowns, accessories were everywhere at weddings. Browse our wedding hair accessories for ideas.

Should I Wear My Hair Half Up or Down for a Wedding?

For formal weddings, a half-up hairstyle strikes a lovely balance between elegance and relaxed beauty. For more casual weddings, wearing your hair down with soft waves or curls looks effortlessly chic. A half-up style is also a practical choice for keeping hair out of your face while still enjoying the feeling of wearing it down. If you would rather not think about your hair all day, choose a more secure half updo.
