Start planning a wedding and it’s only a matter of time before something or someone disappoints you. I guess I’m pretty fortunate that I’ve been engaged for almost 12 months before my first significant disappointment came about.

This past Saturday, I had a routine appointment at my hair salon, just as I do (or at least try to do) every 8 weeks. I’ve been going there for a while now and I love it. They do a great job, I feel comfortable with them and, most importantly, I trust them. So of course, they were my #1 choice for bride and bridesmaid beautification on the wedding day.

Unfortunately, at my appointment, I was told they will not be able to accommodate my request to get me and my girls looking our best for the wedding. This is so disappointing!

(Deviled Egg Disclaimer: The DE wedding will be on a Sunday and my salon is not open on Sundays. They were willing to open special just for me if some of the staff members were available, which they are not. Bummer.)

Yes, I know it’s not the end of the world, but it still stinks. And, yes, I should be able to find other professionals who will be available on our wedding day, but I guess I had my hopes up that hair and makeup would be a gimme. It was just too easy thinking I could go with the people I know (and trust!) and skip the tedious research and uncertain hair trials.

But, if I have to subject myself to uncertain hair trials, I know it will be worth it in the end. If I did my hair myself, it would probably end up looking like this:

Yikes! Let the research begin!

Was your normal hairstylist able to accomodate you for your wedding day or did you have to seek our a new hairstylist for your day?
