I have a confession to make.
I haven’t posted at all regarding my wedding hair. It’s not because I don’t care about it, it’s because I have an ace in my back pocket. With that comfort, I just plain haven’t thought about it.
See this hair?
It was all styled by my MOH. Yes, my best friend is a professional stylist. This is not to say that I walk around with bomb-looking hair all the time, it just means that I get some A-list treatment on my wedding day. We were suppose to do a hair-trial when I spent last weekend in LA (which I meant to show you), but we were pressed for time. And you know what? I just trust that we’ll make it work.
We’re doing something with a bang, choppy just above the eyebrows and tapering down, and some sort of mid/up-do in the back since I’d like my veil to come from underneath, not on top of my head. We may do a hair change when I change into my reception dress, but we’ll leave that up to timing.
I’m so excited to see how it comes together! With a moniker like ’Barrettes’ I feel responsible for having cute wedding hair! I even found a sweet pair of orange barrettes that look like my icon. 
Did you have a secret weapon? Did that let you rest easy, or were you more anxious about it?
Lucky you! I bet your hair is going to turn out incredible 
My secret weapon - me, my sister, and my best friend are all stylists so no worries for my wedding!
I love the updo in the third photo. Your MOH is very talented. Can’t wait to see your hairstyle!
Wow, that’s a great secret weapon to have! Can’t wait to see!
Super jealous! I wish I had a secret weapon - I have friendors who make me more anxious that I am not trusting a pro! Oh well - it will work.
I can’t wait to see your hair!!!
Ahh! SO jealous! (that you get a pro-stylist AND you are so closely connected to Selena Gomez, haha :)) My only secret weapon is me… I’m a super crafter! So I made my own bracelet, veil, STDs, and invitations. My other is one of my best friends who’ll play violin during our ceremony!
right now? ENVY is my middle name! you are one lucky bride!
So jealous! That is awesome. Your MOH is obviously talented-those hair pics are amaze-balls!
Our florist is a family friend who’s gifting us all of our flowers. I’ve given him a vague idea of our overall vision, color scheme, and some flowers I particularly like, but otherwise I’m leaving it pretty much up to him. I trust him to create something(s) gorgeous.
@justeen: Its all in who u know… we’re paying a nice sum for strings at our wedding! 
It’s such a wonderful feeling to have friends who can help make the wedding!
I’m super lucky - my incredibly talented best friend from college is designing and making my dress (she’s a textile artist and clothing designer - it’ll be amazing); a family friend is taking our pics; and another good friend is a professional printmaker who is designing and printing our invites as our wedding present.
ohmygosh I’m jealous, but SO excited for you!!! how awesome!
Wow wow wow. Can I just say wow? I wish I had friends that are that artistic. But no, they are all CPA’s and Doctors and Engineers. No fun!
Wha??? You get FREE PROFESSIONAL HAIR?!? I am officially jealous.
Super Jealous!!!!! This is awesome hair!!
My MOH and another BM are both hairstyles, so I guess you can call them my secret weapon I originally asked MOH to do wedding hair, but we havent done trial (since she lives out of state and i havent seen since Jan) & I was in a wedding 3 weeks ago so asked other BM to do it as a sort of “trial”…but I didn’t LOVE it. I really dont like updos for myself and just felt it wasnt right. so the other day she curled it but i felt like it was hot curled, and i wanted soft curls. so now I’m 9 days away and still not sure what I want!!! AHHHHH 
@Miss Zebra: No, u stop it blondie! Wanna trade for a day? =)
@mightywombat: well dang lady, I’d say you have a whole hand of aces in your back pocket!
@bRooklynRocks: also nice to have as friends
I am so jealous!! I can’t wait to see what your MOH comes up with!

Mrs. Barrettes, Tumon, Guam/Napa, CA Age and Occupation: 29, Dancer Fiance's Age and Occupation: 31, Licensed Building Contractor Engagement Date: November 16, 2008 Wedding Date: October 2010 Venue: V. Sattui Winery About Me: I'm an East Coast girl, living on a tiny little island in the Pacific, twirling, leaping, and shimmy-ing my way through life, and now, wedding planning! I'm equal parts nerdy and cool... okay, mostly nerdy. I love satin bows, red lipstick, black & white graphic anything, the shine of sequins and the sound of a champagne "pop". My favorite books are The Portrait of a Lady, by Henry James, and Tender is the Night, by F. Scott Fitzgerald. I can also conjure a pretty good Patronus Charm. I started my appreciation for good red wine while traveling on the high seas, and it's only fitting that my passion for wine drinking led me to my Napa-bred honey. We bonded over bottles of Cabernet on my oceanfront porch and haven't looked back since. We're sealing the deal at a winery in the Napa Valley on a 'perfect ten' of a day!
