I've been with my fiance for 9 years and we have a 7 year-old daughter together.
Now and then, he says that he's ready to get married, but I've gotten my hopes up before and decided to wait until he says it's ok for me to book a venue.
Well, we had already planned a DisneyWorld Vacation for this Thanksgiving week. So I'm talking to FTW about if they have availability for a ceremony (no reception needed) at the Pavilion during our stay.
I love the half-up look, and have had my hair styled that way before. Lynn - where did you book your stylist?
I'm going to scour these boards. I'm wondering - when you start booking a FTW, do they help you find someone to do your hair?
I am not sure what availability there will be for Thanksgiving week. I imagine that the holidays are a popular time for Disney weddings.
It sounds like you are planning an Escape wedding?
When I booked my wedding, I was provided with a list of stylists. I have Patricia LeJeune booked. If you have any questions I might be able to answer, please feel free to PM me.
This was the only one I could find where you can see my hair pretty well. I just had some of it pulled away from my face and the rest in curls. It was exactly what I wanted. My hair is naturally curly and was at that time just about to the middle of my back.
Anybody have any advice for someone with naturally straight & long hair who wants it curly for her wedding? I've tried to have it curled for other weddings, but the curl never lasts...

I have the same problem as you...long straight hair to my waist. I have managed to curl my hair once for a night out...but it meant me starting it in the morning! I used curling tongs and sectioned my hair and after each curl, I pinned it to my head instead of letting it fall loose. I eventually finished curling it and I left it pinned up for hours but when I took all the pins out, it looked fantastic. Just gave it a light spray and it stayed in all night. Hope that helps.
Okay, I have super duper uber straight hair (I'm Asian!) but it is super duper uber thick too. My curls slowly deteriorated as the night went on but I think they ended up fine. I had mine half up & half down too.
This is the best I could do for pictures...
Beginning of the day...
Towards the end of the reception (after dancing the night away and taking pictures outside the GF - IN AUGUST!... yeah.. not bad!)
Have your stylist use a ton of product on your hair...sprays nothing heavy though. Have them use a small iron. The curls will be tight at first. When she is done curling it have her rub some type of peicing paste in her hands and loosen up the curls by pulling them out.
I use Catwalk sexed up hairspray and Shaper and to make the curls hold and keep them shiny and frizzy I use Kiwi piecing paste.
I wish I could do all the brides hair in Disney lol. I do some beautiful updos and gorgeous curls.
Some more pics for ya. I didn't think my hair would cooperate in the heat and humidity but it actually was fine (well, at least up until the DP-after that, it was in shambles, lol)

Hmmm I'm already doing my own make up as I like to think I'm a bit of a pro myself. Maybe I could do my hair too... I think I'll to practice though, but I've got 6 months!
