We’ve curated a list of the top 20 beautiful wedding hairstyles that’ll pair with one-shoulder dresses.

When you wear a one-shoulder wedding dress, you’ll always want to style your hair on the other bare-shoulder side so that you don’t hide any of the pretty details of your gown.
2. Grecian Beauty
We love how classy and sophisticated this Grecian wedding hairstyle looks. Taking a cue from her wedding dress which has an ethereal Grecian goddess style, this bride chose to wear her hair down in the back with her bangs pulled back with some volume for height.
Soft and subtle tendrils add a level of romanticism, and to complete the look, she added a large gold choker.
3. Minimalist Ballerina Bun
For the bride that likes to keep things simple and elegant, this romantic wedding hairstyle has a ballerina bun with loose hair for a relaxed yet classy look.
This is the perfect choice for her one-shoulder wedding dress because it has ruffles along the neckline. However, since the wedding dress has a little drama, it’s best to keep the wedding hairstyle simple.

WOW! What an incredible wedding hairstyle for long hair. Voluminous, glamorous, and unique with a slightly off-centered part, her hair has been curled to resemble rows of cascading locks.

6. Effortless Low Bun
Wearing a one-shoulder wedding dress with sequins means you can go casual with your hair. In this example, the bride has a low tight bun, like a knot, and then the rest of her hair is loose with face-framing tendrils.
It’s a romantic look accented perfectly with her soft and beautiful makeup.
7. Loose Curled Updo With Flowers
A pretty updo is in store when your wedding dress has a little drama from ruffles on the shoulder. For this bride, though, she didn’t want anything simple. So, her hair was curled, then loosely draped in sections, creating volume.
She accented it perfectly with some flowers to complete the look.
