Happy Valentine’s Day! Today is a day to celebrate love, something that I feel pretty strongly about here at District Weddings. Does anyone have fun plans? I was up super late last night prepping for a savory but tedious meal! I hope that it is all worth it tonight. Yum!
Okay, back to business – wedding updates from Marybeth. Yup, I certainly like this news…and may even want to try it out myself despite not being a bride…

Even before Kate Middleton debuted her wedding look, I knew I wanted to wear my hair in a half-up style on my wedding day. In December I had my first hair trial and eagerly showed the hairdresser various photos of the look I wanted. As I paged through photos on the iPad, the hairdresser confirmed my fear. I have very fine, stick straight hair. My hair she explained was not full enough to create the soft rolling waves I was showing her. My options were to go with an updo, use a clip in hairpiece or get extensions. That day we did a few trial updos and I knew it was not what I wanted.
Once I was back in San Diego, I realized it really is true what they say about California girls – they all have long beautiful hair – so I decided it was time to become a California girl. A few weeks later, with a little help from Dream Catcher Extensions and my new awesome stylist Brittany G at Indigo Salon in San Diego, I had a full gorgeous head of long flowing hair.
I could not be happier with my decision. Below I have included a before shot from our engagement photos, and an after shot from a morning before work.
In March I will have my second hair trial and cannot wait to see how the stylist recreates Angelina Jolie’s style in the above picture. I will make sure to snap a few photos and give you all a sneak peak!
