The Best Celebrity Bridal Beauty Looks of 2014, From Angelina to Kim
It was truly an incredible year for celebrity weddings. Not only did some of the nuptials completely surprise us (Angelina and Brad's secret wedding, eternal bachelor George Clooney getting hitched), but all the brides were ethereal and stunning. The women all looked like the best versions of themselves — a bridal beauty commandment — and they all did it with effortless grace. From red lips to beach waves and everything in between, keep reading for a look back at the most beautiful wedding looks of 2014. And don't blame us if you can't help but add all the pictures to your secret Pinterest board.
Kim Kardashian
For her June wedding to Kanye West, Kim kept her beauty look relatively simple — well, as simple as Kim gets, anyway — with sleek, straight hair, bronzed skin, and sculpted cheekbones.
Olivia Palermo
On Olivia's big day in July, she paid homage to the humble ponytail, wearing a tousled version of the classic style that looked laid-back with her off-the-rack sweater and skirt combo.
Jessica Simpson
Jessica got married this July with platinum blond strands — a custom, dimensional color based on her daughter Maxwell's curls.
Behati Prinsloo
While Behati and her groom, Adam Levine, never revealed photos from their July wedding, we think it's highly likely that her makeup coordinated with her custom blush Marchesa gown.
Angelina Jolie
At her August wedding to Brad Pitt, Angelina let her natural beauty shine through with soft bronze eye shadow, lush lashes, and a simple updo. The Jolie-Pitt brood got a special shout-out via Angelina's custom veil, which featured their colorful doodles.
Gabrielle Union
For her glamorous Miami wedding to Dwyane Wade this August, Gabrielle went with half-up beach waves and a pale pink lip.
Lauren Conrad
For her September wedding, Lauren stayed with her signature style — California-cool waves and an omnipresent cat eye — for a simple and sophisticated look any girl could rock on her big day.
Amal Alamuddin
George Clooney's gorgeous bride looked positively regal for their September wedding. Perfectly groomed brows and a glossy blowout added easy elegance to the bride's beauty without detracting from the details of her gorgeous gown.
Solange Knowles
For her November wedding to music video director Alan Ferguson, Solange paired an afro and matte red lipstick for a classic yet bold wedding beauty look.
Snooki Polizzi
It was a Thanksgiving wedding for Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi and Jionni LaValle. Her gorgeous auburn waves were pulled back into a chic updo underneath a floor-length veil. She donned a brick lipstick to match her daring hair hue.
