So you are getting married! There are so many exciting parts to planning your wedding, the venue, the dress, the styling... Now it is time to let your hair do the talking. Whether it's a messy French twist, textured plait, or sleek ponytail, get some cool new ideas by checking out our top 10 bridal hair trends inspired by designer collections that 2019 brides will be wearing down the aisle.
1. The Boho Bedhead
Wearing your hair down is a winning bridal look for 2019 with a barely there curl, slightly textured, second day hair. Use a large heated curler such as the GHD Classic wave wand and texture spray to keep this style soft and lived in. Accessorise your dreamy boho look with a delicate flower crown to keep the look on trend like this gorgeous styling seen in the Lihi Hod 2019 Secret Garden Collection.
If wearing flowers in the hair isn't your thing, you can always change up this free spirited look with a gypsy headdress to add a hint of cool festival vibes like this gorgeous bohemian bride.

2.) The Wild Bride
Dare to be different? Try thinking outside the box and mix things up a little in 2019 with tribal inspired mini braids paired with half up hairstyles. Keep the hair naturally wavy or go straight for a striking minimalist look as seen in Eddy K's 2019 bridal collection.
For an alternative bride who wants more edge, try adding some drama to your tribal bridal hairstyle with a chunky plaited mohawk paired with a textured high ponytail.

3.) Retro Chic
Viktor and Rolfs 2019 Spring collection paid tribute to the swinging 60s with super high quiffs and flicked out ends. Think Thelma and Louise, Grease Lightning and Hairspray, then add some super laid back, effortless chic vibes by keeping your makeup and accessories minimal.
4. Contemporary cool
Taking the 2019 bridal hairstyling trend by storm, is the minimalist look. A super easy mid high bun oozes contemporary, fuss free styling, and keeping it feminine with some cute, delicate accessories will finish the look perfectly. Butterflies and romantic pale pink organza bows add a super feminine ballerina vibe to this contemporary bridal look in the Charlie Brear 2019 collection.
5. The Meghan
The Royal Wedding set chins wagging in 2018 with Meghan's hair and makeup styling showing us all how refreshing a simple bridal look can be. Expect 2019 brides to take influence and keep their bridal hair natural with low buns and soft tendrils to frame the face, as seen in the Grace Loves Lace 2019 Icon collection featured in Brides Magazine.
6. The Enchanted Goddess
Beautiful botanical decor is a timeless wedding theme, Whether your wedding is indoors or outdoors, romantic arrays of flowers, pops of colour, and shades of green trailing from your bouquet, lining the aisles or decorating the arches will infuse some woodland magic into your wedding day. The Morilee by Madeline Gardner Spring 2019 'Secret Garden' collection shows how to perfectly create romantic bridal hairstyles for that enchanted forest wedding. Low textured ponytails are held together with plaits and knotted twists, then finished off with delicate hair vines. Keep the ponytail current by texturising it up with some beachy salt spray.
7. The Mermaid
Ever seen the movie Spash? Well we aren't thinking Daryll Hannah's long beachy blonde locks for your 2019 bridal hairstyling. This year it is super trendy to keep things modern and simple and that includes the ultra 'out there' wet look. This is not a style we tend to see brides choosing but may get you thinking twice when you see breathtaking Fall 2019 collection from Monique Lhuiller.
8. The Top Knot
Another ultra cool look for a sassy, laid back, modern bride, this hairstyle is hitting the designer runways by storm. Try a bridal top knot with bold accessories such as large flowers or chunky clips. But if you prefer your hair down try this style with a half up top knot accessories with bold earrings as seen in the Berta Bridal 2019 collection.
9. The side swoop
Not quite a ponytail this simple and elegant bridal hairstyle will keep your hair down, off your face and allow the world to see the gorgeous back details of your dress.

Curling the hair with a large barrel and worked through with a smooth styling creme will keep you on trend with Jenny Packham's 2019 Bridal Campaign, simply stunning!
10.) The Sassy Senorita
