How to pick a perfect veil?

The veil is an iconic bridal accessory and it is important to pick a perfect one. There are many styles available and we made a list of a few things to consider before buying one:

Color

  • Your veil should match the color of your dress or be a tone lighter

Design

  • We usually recommend a simple veil for a dress that has a lot of going on (e.g. beading, multiple lace) - you don’t want to overshadow the dress. For a simple gown veil with beading or lace would be perfect - it will add some sparkle.

Length

  • Shorter veils, like bandeaus, birdcages and blushers, tend to lend a bit more personality as well as vintage or  retro edge to your look

  • Longer veils are more traditional and very flattering on any bride

  • Longer waltz or floor-length veils will elongate a petite frame while mid-length styles, like fingertip or elbow-length veils, can visually cut you in half, making them a better pick for taller brides.
