Tips for Choosing Your Wedding Veil

Consider Length First

It's always hard to decide which style to go for when choosing your wedding veil. We suggest considering the length first. Here you'll need to consider your dress shape and the overall feel you're hoping to create too. Shorter bridal veils, such as birdcages and waist length veils, tend to lend a bit more personality as well as an informal, retro edge to your bridal look. A classic and timeless look is often complemented by a flowing chapel length veil or a dramatic cathedral veil for a show-stopping entrance. If you’re going long, make sure the veil is longer than your dress. Finding a style that complements the overall silhouette is critical.

Strike The Right Balance

As a general rule, if your dress is heavily embellished your wedding veil should be simple with clean lines, as you don’t want to take away from the detail on the dress. A more simple gown allows you to be a bit more adventurous, but make sure the embellishments complement the style and color of your dress – for instance, a glamorous sequined veil would feel out of place next to a romantic lace gown embroidered with tiny pearls.

And what shade? If possible, you should aim for the exact shade of your dress or go up a shade lighter.

Two Tier or Single Tier?

A two tier wedding veil is what’s known as the most traditional choice for brides, wearing a blusher over your face as you walk down the aisle, however single tier veils are becoming increasingly popular. If the back of your gown has lots of beautiful detail, don’t hide it under layers of tulle. Opt for a sheer single tier veil that’s long enough not to break up the flow of your look, like an elegant fingertip veil or longer still. If all the detail is at the front of your gown, choose a two tier veil with stunning trim to add interest.
