[QUOTE]<strong>Isn't your dress sort of romantic and vintagey?</strong>  For that reason, I'd keep the longer curly style until after the wedding, then chop it off.  There are just more options for styles to go with your dress, IMO.  But, like everyone else said, you're so adorable, either way looks great!

I was thinking this when I saw your curly hair! Like something off an old Hollywood movie screen! Couldn't find good pics on the fly, but these give you the idea:

don't know if that has anything to do with your wedding though, so take it with a grain of salt! <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-laughing.gif" border="0" alt="Laughing" title="Laughing" />

Thanks again for all the input and compliments, ladies

In the pixie picture, you look very "old Hollywood".  Not many people could look like that, maybe ask your hair stylist for some ideas of what you could do either way.

Ok, I just saw that the last poster said the same thing.
Either way you wear it, you're super cute.

I love that you can totally pull off a pixie, it looks great on you. Buuuuuuut, I think your longer 'do is cute too. I'm sorry, I'm torn.

What do you plan to do with it long term? If you usually keep it in a pixie, are you going to look back on your wedding photos and feel like you don't look like yourself?

That's a good point. Even though I've been growing my hair out, it hasn't been specifically for the wedding. I hadn't really thought about chopping it off again until recently, because every time I see a girl with a pixie cut I get all wistful ;) I think I might go for a slightly longer pixie than before but ask the stylist to cut it so that I can wear it curly. I love this style:

I set up an appointment for Thursday :)
