Veils....Did you/will you wear one? Have pic?

Jessalyn, Edyta is right, I remember your dress and I think you can totally wear a veil with your dress and it would look stunning..

I am wearing a veil, I agree with tammy, it will be fun for pictures, and how often do you get to wear a veil.

 

I am also going to use my sisters veil & tiara, I think, rather than buying them. And the will be my something borrowed. She's going to bring them down to me in a few weeks when she comes to see my dresses so hopefully they will be what I want.

So, with my dress in mind, how long do you think my veil should be? ...I'm thinking elbow length?

I am so bad at this stuff!

I am too - I just let the lady at the bridal shop tell me what she thinks - lol. The one I am thinking of buying it about "butt length" and comes to a point in the back, I forget the name for this. I really need to decide.

Elbow or butt length would look really nice. Since your a DIY person, did you know that your local craft stores sells veil pretty much made, you just have to piece what you like together..

I bought some tulle today and thought I'd try my hand at making my own. If it turns out bad, I can always buy one. The tulle only cost 2.59 a yard and then the comb was 6.99. I found a site yesterday that had instructions about how to make one. I'll share it here, if anyone is interested. Making a Veil


Thanks for your opinions and ideas ladies! I appreciate it!!

I am wearing a long veil. My mother is really attached to the idea. I think it looks nice too. You can see mine in the Gown thread - basically it's long and has a matching lace edge around it. mantilla style.
