WINTER

With dramatic hair and sleekly polished makeup, this look is great for winter. While summer brides often choose loose waves or undone hair, cold weather parties are more amenable to bold statements, like this almost architectural updo created by the stylists at Bei Capelli. A daring coif like this can either be played down with minimalist jewelry, or enhanced with big, bright diamond accessories. For those who prefer a very modern look, this Hayley Paige gown from Spoile Me is a stunning way to embrace the season.

SPRING

While it might be a traditional season for weddings, spring brides need not feel hemmed in by old-fashioned expectations. Short hair is a breeze to style and a striking way to buck conventions. Remain true to yourself with this glamorous, yet low-key look created by Genevieve Drzewianowski of Head Games Salon. Light pink lips and cheeks are natural and sweet—a perfect match for spring blossoms—and classic black liner creates subtle drama while pairing brilliantly with retro-inspired pin curls. Top it all off with some bold accessories, and you’ve got a look that’s modern and memorable.

SUMMER

Classic elegance gets a new twist with this intricate hairstyle by a Fabu stylist. An update on the “rose bun,” this pretty look is made wedding-ready by the addition of floral hair accessories. Loose enough to allow a little dishevelment, this look is at once structured and natural. Keep it seasonally appropriate with minimal makeup and a sun-kissed glow. Neutral-toned lips let eyes pop, and a bare neck keeps the focus on the sweetheart neckline of this gorgeous Lea-Ann Belter dress from Spoil Me. And if you want to inject a little sparkle into your look, studded pearl earrings complement a more traditional gown nicely.

FALL

For a free-spirited fall bride, there are few things more fitting than feathers in the hair—except maybe an unconventional, thoroughly glamorous Grecian gown. Inspired by the rich colors of fall, this look by Beauty Mark Spa can be adapted to fit brides of all ages. An expertly lined smoky eye feels fresh when paired with soft, natural cheeks and plum-tinted lips, and an attached mermaid braid is an easy style to recreate at home. Dried flowers, brown plumes, and 1920s-inspired accessories help pull together the style, adding a soft, romantic touch.
