These Wedding Hairstyles for Long Hair Will Look Stunning on Your Big Day (2024)

Alex Drummond went with a classic, polished hairstyle at her wedding—and we're still swooning! Her strands are artfully interwoven into a low bun updo with just the right amount of volume on top while perfectly placed strands were left out to frame her face.

There's no need to overthink your bridal look. Seriously, sometimes simple is best! These gloriously shaped curls prove that. They're the perfect mix of voluminous and loose for an elevated take on an everyday 'do that won't go out of style.

Are we the only ones who get total Rapunzel vibes from this look? The base has a subtle curl while the upper half of the hair is pulled up into a beautifully styled vertical twist. The pearlescent wired accessory weaved throughout the twisted strands gives an exquisite finishing touch.

Side swept curls are perfect for any formal occasion—including a wedding! The look of luscious curls cascading down one shoulder adds a dramatic flair to an otherwise simple style. This bride adorned the other side of her head with a beautiful accessory for even more glam.

Here's one way to put a unique twist (quite literally) on a familiar updo. The tousled tresses of the low ponytail are accentuated by twisted strands around the ears that continue along the hairline where they wrap around the ponytail itself. Teasing at the top of the head completes the look.

For any bride wanting to feel like a princess on her big day, you can't go wrong with an elegant updo like a chignon. The chignon is crafted by tucking hair into a knot at the nape of the neck. This one incorporates a bohemian feel with a darling braid along the side and loose strands throughout.

Show off your luxuriously long locks by curling them and leaving them mostly unbound down your back. Then amp up the volume by teasing the top and using concealed pins to hold everything in place. This bride even pinned back a thick strand along the side with a lovely hair clip for an eye-catching statement.

Who wouldn't want to emulate the timeless beauty of old Hollywood glamour? A dazzling blowout full of bounce and shine will do just that. The best part: this look can easily be done on a variety of hair types and textures.

An oldie but a goodie—especially for those of you with naturally curly hair. All you have to do it pin those ringlets into a slightly messy updo with wispy curls fanning your nape and face. It's simplistic yet still so sophisticated. You can even take a hint from this bride and accessorize further with bejeweled clips.

Of course, we just had to include Ree's hairstyle from Alex's wedding. What's not to love about the quintessential half-up, half-down 'do? Hers is made even better by perfectly shaped curls and copious amounts of volume at the crown of the head.

Here's a style that screams effortless sophistication. We love the intricate braiding of the hairdo that allows for plenty of eye-catching depth. Plus, the plaits are topped off with a hint of romance in the form of a beautifully beaded headband.

This one is the epitome of understated elegance! We're so here for the idea of leaving loose, beautiful curls free-flowing and unadorned for a casual but oh so glamorous feel. Because if you've got it, flaunt it! Bonus points: It'll match any wedding theme.

Paige's hairstyle for Alex's wedding is giving us the sweetest inspo. Plus, it's easy to recreate. Relaxed waves are arranged prettily around her face while a dainty twist is pinned to the side for a finished look that's just so endearing.

Though this bride is giving total goddess energy with her polished ponytail, the traditional style will work well for any type of wedding. This one can be curled or straightened depending on the look you're going for. And don't forget to leave out a few wispy pieces along the front to complete all that chicness.

We've definitely fallen for this stunning style. Instead of completely pulling back her long and perfectly curled locks, this bride utilizes a wrap around fishtail braid to add volume and romantic detailing. Notice how sections at the front are left down for even more whimsy.

Enhance your go-to pony for the ceremony by curling your hair, pulling it back, teasing it up, then pulling out long strands around your face to draw attention to your features. It gives so much simplicity without losing any allure.

Whether your wedding is a boho theme, fairytale-esque or more classic, there's always room for accessorizing with flowers. Leave your hair down like this bride and place a flower crown on top or weave blooms into your braids and buns. Either way, you'll look beyond lovely.

We can't get over how visually stunning this intricate updo is. Between the bountiful curls and twisted tresses that are ever-so-carefully-pinned, it seems like something out of a dream. But it's so real and so stylish. Just take sections of hair, twist and pin them across the head then continue to alternate sides as you go.

The knotted bun is a popular pick for brides everywhere—and for good reason! It's delicate, charming, and though looks to be ornate, isn't too difficult to achieve. This one is swept up at the base of the head and positioned slightly to the side with pieces around the front and crown tugged away for fullness throughout.

Not too high and not too low, this ponytail positioned at the crown of the head gives a slightly elevated look to a classic style and allows for the perfect amount of bounce paired with those lovely curls.
