for Alex B

I have read your posts and it looks like youre very knowledgeable.
I will get married around june, and i have some questions. My hair is almost to my shoulders, and its curly and very thick. I am wondering, will it be long enough for an elaborate updo? That has always been my dream, especially since i have thick hair, i want it to help me. Also, have you heard of a "cindarella updo" kind of like cindarella's hair? What kind of look does that work for? Can it still be elegant yet flirty?
Is there a way to wear tool without covering all of the 'do from the back?

Thanks so much for your help, i appreciate any advice you can give me from your experience!!
