Wedding...MN Style: Girls & Hair

I don't even know how much (or how little) sleep I got the night before the wedding. I remember seeing Mr. 2SBs text at 2:30ish and was already awake when my alarm went off at 7:30 the next day.

My sister/MOH, BM B and I had to shower and dry our hair. Since my sister/MOH and BM B have thick, long hair, they showered first (only one shower at my parents house, but it worked out well) and then it was my turn! It was really nice to just shower, get dressed, dry my hair and be done with making myself ready for the day! I wish everyday was like that!

Once we were set to go, FSIL/Personal Attendant B had came over in the meantime, so we were off to pick up the three other ladies. First, BM R, who was staying at her parents house then BM L & C, who were staying at the same hotel.

Something weird was going on this day...we were running ahead of schedule! Good in my book! Our hair appointments started at 9am and we were at the salon by 8:50am! The shop didn't technically open til 9, but they let us in and got started almost right away!

I went first along with my sister/MOH , BM C, and FSIL B. We had brought the ingredients for mimosa's (a must have in my book) and my mom dropped off some bagels around 9:15. I had told the photographers to come around 9:30 or 10. They arrived promptly at 9:20 and started snapping away. By that time, my hair was pretty much done and it was time for veil placement. There was some debate about whether to go above the curls or below. I prefered below, and that's what it was! The salon we went to do an amazing job and we were out of there just after 10:30. Needless to say...were were still running ahead of schedule! Gotta love that! Here are a few pictures from the salon.

All pictures from our photographers, unless otherwise noted.

I think this is when it really started to sink in

Ok...I can do this (just need some make-up)

The end result

The closest I got to being a Bridezilla during the whole wedding planning process

and there were a lot of laughs!

me with BM L & C (just to show that my BMs were there)

Once everyone had their hair done, FSIL B drove us to the church so we could finish getting ready (i.e make-up and getting dressed). My goal was to be there by 11, but we were there by 10:45...still running ahead of schedule!

Did you run on schedule or late on your wedding day?

Next up...the guys get ready
