We met up with Stefanie at Dario Salon in La Jolla while they created 3 separate, beautiful hair styles for voting, for NBC Throws a Wedding at the Prado.    Dario and the girls, Jamie and Shannon, worked tirelessly, and their attention to detail was impeccable – seriously, not a single hair out of place!!  Dario Salon is modern, yet comfortable, with comfy chairs and sofa, and plenty of fashion magazines.  They offer a full line of services (cut, style, color, extensions, makeup, etc.) for complete pampering!

Stefanie was sooo cute – there were a couple times I noticed her looking into the mirror, or at the back of my camera, and she was REALLY seeing herself as a bride.  It’s one of those moments that hits brides, and I never get tired of witnessing it.  One time I noticed Stefanie looking down after she saw herself, and  she had this huge smile on her face.  I just let her have the moment.  Then she looked up and said Jerry is just going to be blown away.  I teared up for her (yes, I’m a HUGE sap)!  It’s so great when we get to see the excitement and anticipation, and how tickled brides get at the idea of surprising their grooms! 

Here are a couple of photos from each hair style.  To view more on NBC’s wedding website, and cast your vote for your favorite hairstyle – click here. Voting begins after the NBC morning news on Friday, 9.18.09.

Style 1 – This style is mostly down – soft, flowy, and romantic, and accented with little white flowers in the back.

Style 2 – This style is half up and half down, with a little Spanish flair.  The back is swept to the side, and comes over Stefanie’s shoulder.

Style 3 – This one is a traditional up do, with a very classic style.
