We’ve compiled a list of gorgeous wedding hairstyles for short hair that will make you look chic on your big day.

1. Braided half up-do

A half up-do is one of those classic hairstyles that suits any occasion.

2. Textured Pixie

A pixie cut will match delicate lace and embroidery on a romantic dresses, making it one of the best wedding hairstyles for short hair. Pair it with dewy, barely-there makeup for an ethereal glow.

3. Faux up-do

Who says girls with short hair can’t wear an up-do without using extensions? All you need to do is gather your hair to the back and pin it so it’ll resemble a French twist from behind. Don’t worry about loose pieces in the front — just give them a slight wave so they frame your face for a softer look. A bunch of fresh flowers on your crowning glory will complete this wedding hairstyle for short hair.

4. Classic blowout
