The dress is beautiful. tiara looks very 'royal' so i think i'd do either all up because it will looke amazing under the mantilla. or if you want it more romantic and princessy, wear it half up and half down with loose curls-more waves then ringlets. Actually I really like the down hairstyle in your album. Half up might make it 'dressier' but thats basically what im suggesting.
Btw, wear did you get those fabulous earrings?

Thanks! Earrings from Thomas Knoell. They're double-sided so they look beautiful from behind too.

Re: What hairstyle.....
I REALLY wanted to do a low chignon with a little volume on top, but will it look stupid with tiara? I don't think I've ever seen that hairstyle w/ tiara

Re: What hairstyle.....
Hmm like at the nape of your neck? I dont think it will look bad. Try it and see, even if you DIY it just for the idea, at home. This tiara is pretty low isn't it?It doesnt seem to stick up like a traditional one giving you that crown effect, so i think you'd be ok with the low hairstyle. It would look very Old World Spain. :) I am also wearing a mantilla so the hairstyles are a pain in the neck.

OMG. His stuff if AMAZING. His store is in Manhasset, I believe he has items in select bridal shops, but I'm not sure which one. If you go to his store, he meets with you personally & he will tell you exactly the piece that fits you & your gown (without even seeing a pic of it!). But he's very pricey. He does have a section on his website of items on sale. He's got a bunch of tiaras on sale now.
He showed me a couple of different ways to wear the tiara, but I'm not sure the hairstyle I want will go with the tiara. This is the style I want to wear:
Ah ok. Hmm i dont like the volume at top myself. I feel it looks like someone grabber her by the top of the head and didnt smooth it down enough. But I like the low chignon.
Hmm these are some I found. Lose the flowers in them of course but similar to what you like-just smoother top.
This one is a bit high but it has the tiara so you can get an idea of the effect.

Thanks for the pics. I really like the #3, but I look better with my hair pulled back & down, but I might try that one.

Re: What hairstyle.....
Well you can make the chignon low. I just posted that one because had the tiara in it. But the style seems similar to yours-not very high so i think it would be fine with a lower knot at the nape. I like your style, just not the top volume of it.

Re: What hairstyle.....
I don't care for the top volume either, but when I went to Thomas Knoell he said I need something with a little volume on top (not as much as in pic......thats too much). I did a search & I found a couple more that I like
LOVE the first aand last one of the 3 together that you posted. I think that style will work perfectly for you. Pft ignore what he says -grins- He's a man. What does he know! ;-D It looks messy with the volume. I think with that beautiful tiara and earrings, you need a polished, classic look.
