Bridal boutique veil prices are INSANE!!! IMO that is a bit much only because I know that DIY would be a lot less, and I don't think they would be that difficult to make. I haven't yet decided whether or not my BM will be wearing flowers or some type of peacock clip in their hair.

Ok I had never thought ab my bm's hair lol. I think i want to be the only one with a flower tho...

I sound like a broken record but..Ebay, Ebay, Ebay! There are quite a few bridal veil retailers there, and I believe I'm getting my bird cage veil from one.

Veils can also be purchased very reasonably from www.eventsandoccasions.com

 

HTH!

Amen to that!! I am getting my cathedral from Ebay, bcuz I refuse to spend hundreds of $$ on a piece of tulle!!

OK ladies I ordered my veil from Etsy seller PinUpCouture. The girl's name is Michelle and she's been great to work with. we basically took something she had on the site and changed the colors and the jewels. It's a flower with feathers and a blusher. I'll show a pic when I receive it. It cost me $75 but hey you only get married once... right haha...

Looking for suggestions for unrelaxed hair..

[LadyD]

Hi Ochie,

 

I have unrelaxed hair as well and my fiance does NOT want me to wear a weave or braids since I normally don't wear them. He wants me to look like me. I usually wear a curly fro...but I will be looking for some natural hair styles as well.

 

What products do you normally use?

[Prettyhazardous]

Hey ladies I have natural hair as well but I have locs and they're rather long so i feel comfy doing any style. I think I'm gonna curl it with loc loops (it'll look like shirley temple curls) and the just wear my flower and blusher.

By the way i love my flower (altho I didnt think it was worth the price) but my blusher is too small. So I'm sending ti back today and she's making me a bigger one... I never knew I had a big heads lol...

I'm contemplating dying my hair. My loctician is all ab taking care of your hair and bc my hair has broken off so much she's not willing to bleach and dye it. I was thinking of getting someone else to dye it and just have her take care of my hair (so rude right). I wanna dye it this summer so that by nov the color will be locked in and not run when I get in the water and stuff i'm just scared that I'll break my hair off more...

I would be worried about my hair breaking off esp. if your stylist is not recommending it, but if you must you should have plan B in case it does break off. Good Luck!
