Show me your wedding hair!

I think the way that both a flower and veil can work is if they are at different heights. Laurelyn mentions having the flower low and (I assume) the veil up high. In Purple Unicorn's pictures, the veil is low and the flower is higher.

I was sort of imagining this, but couldn't put the explanation into words until I saw the other girls' posts.

No flower, however I am having a hairpiece that is feathery--so it will be like a flower...just not a flower

I have been able to put clips in before, but it is really not easy. I am looking for pretty ideas for short hair.... so far, all i can think to do is curl it!

Sure you can wear flowers and a veil. Here is what I'm doing for the ceremony. For the reception I'm just wearing the flower.

My problem is i want too much. (shocking, lol) I told FI i wasnt wearing a veil and he didnt like that too much, so i got one. Thing is i wanted a flower in my hair and to borrow my sisters hairpiece from her wedding. Can you wear a veil and still incorporate flowers?
