I've read that it's not in keeping with etiquette for second-time brides to wear a blushers, or even any type of veil. But I'm absolutely in love with the look of the drop veil.
My first wedding eight years ago was small (29 people), I wore a knee-length dress and a DIY birdcage veil. I was only 21, and we did everything modestly--no party or dancing, just a dinner at a restaurant. The marriage came to a heartbreaking end three years ago now.
I'm so thankful, though, because for the last year and a half I have been dating the most wonderful man I have ever met. We are both graduate students, and will be hosting a joyful bash on our school's campus with all of our friends. I'm so glad to have the wedding every woman dreams of, with a gown and a dance party. We'll be married in the chapel on our campus, which was built in the early 1800s--so traditional seems right. I have an Alfred Angelo 1148 dress, and am dreaming of a drop veil with it. Is that inappropriate for a 2nd wedding?
