Romantic, modern and impossibly pretty, half up half down wedding hairstyles are classic looks of your big day that will never go out of style. “You’ll never look back at your wedding photos in 25 years and regret having your hair half up,” says celebrity hairstylist Matt Fugate.

A half up hairstyle isn’t just for long haired brides. Pinned back hair suits short, medium or long hair. Keep in mind, a lot of the looks you see below can be recreated with the help of hair extensions so don’t feel discouraged if your hair isn’t as thick and luscious as the inspiration shots. It can be styled to look classic and polished or loose and bohemian depending on the vibe of your day – a braided crown, a Bardot back-comb, or a romantic pulled back look.
