“So everybody just kind of went off and did their own thing, and then we went back to our Airbnb and did the haircut.” In order to achieve the dramatic chop, Heffron installed extensions to add length. “We told everybody that we were going to take our solo pictures after the ceremony and before the reception,” she says. Heffron kept her haircut a secret from everybody, including her parents and bridesmaids. “That was really the only time in the day that it was just the two of us and our photographer,” she says. The chop didn’t just offer a transition between the ceremony and reception, but a tender moment shared between bride and groom. “He was more nervous about this because he was scared he was gonna cut it too short,” she says. Heffron had no second thoughts about such a dramatic change, though the same can't be said for the groom. “He was the one that suggested going that short,” Heffron says of her bob, which lands just above her shoulders.
