I need to know if this veil matches my dress, please help!!!!!

Ellen Smith, on June 23, 2011 at 4:55 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 22

So im now 30 days away and I need to order my veil ASAP. Im a bit nervous about ordering something with color on line. I need to know if the color on the veil matches my dress before I order it. I tried to call the girls in my WP but of course no one is answering their phones and FH is at work. The color in my dress is cornflower blue and the trim on the veil is royal blue. I have noticed through shopping around that davids bridal cornflower blue is also considered royal blue by other designers. Im just not sure please help.

    YES it looks nice together but still try it on so you can make sure that you like the way that it looks on you

    "Royal" blue is USUALLY darker than "cornflower" blue. If it doesn't match, can you send it back for a full refund?

    It looks like it matches here on the interwebs but it might be different in person.

    What's the return policy? Are you able to request a swatch?

    My thought is, get it. If the colors don't coordinate, get a plain white satin ribbon (or cornflower blue for that matter) and glue it over the blue one.

    I cant try it on because I am ordering it of line. I hope if I do order it and dont like it that I will have time to return it and order a new one. I dont know why I waited so long to get one. I really had my heart set on the blue trim. I love being diffrent a lot of my friends thinks a bride should only wear white. Thanks a lot ladies.

    The blue on the veil looks a little darker than the blue on your dress.

    It looks a little darker, but might be ok. Make sure you can return it if it doesn't match.

    Thanks again ladies, I went back and checked the return policy and I can actually order up to 3 veils at a time and return the ones I dont want. So even though I have my heart set on the blue one im going to order the second one in white. That way I wont have to waste time finding and ordering another one in such a short time.

    I think that's a great idea Ellen! Just in case you're not 100% happy with the blue one you'll have the white one Smiley smile

    Our main colors were cornflower blue and silver. Cornflower blue was actually lighter than royal blue. we used royal blue at our reception but it might not go well with your dress and veil so close together. It's good they have such an open return policy. Good Luck!

    I think the veil really matches your wedding dress. You must be more beautiful wearing the veils.
