To veil or not to veil

Aleitia, on September 2, 2020 at 7:47 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 1 24
I’m wearing a Eva Mendel inspired dress similar to the picture and need to know if I should wear a veil or not? My mother said that this dress doesn’t go with a veil but what do you think?To veil or not to veil 1

    I think a veil would look lovely with this if you wanted to wear one.

    I think so too! My mom just kinda in her feelings because this isn’t the dress she envisioned me to wear on my wedding day.

    I think that you could definitely wear a veil with that dress if you wanted to! As far as length, maybe go try a few on to get an idea of what you like best with it.

    I’m definitely going to try it on with a couple of them and see what I prefer. Thanks!

    Has she seen it on you with a veil? She may feel differently when she sees it if she hasn't already. My grandmother was sooo against long veils and my dress has a cathedral veil that was made for it and when she saw it together she was all on board in love with it.

    That’s a good point! Will definitely have her see it with a veil once I find the perfect one. That will most likely sway her to my side.

    That is a really beautiful dress! I think a cathedral length veil would be so beautiful. And remind your mother that you would only be wearing the veil for the ceremony and pictures, and most likely taking it off for the reception. So most of the day you would not have it on.

    I think this dress would look gorgeous with a scattered crystal veil!

    I’m not typically pro veil but I think a veil would look gorgeous with this dress.

    I would think a sheer, one tier veil would look great. Either raw edge or a thin ribbon edge. Probably chapel length. But try on a few!

    Definitely try on a few to see how you feel!! I think a plain tulle or one with scattered sparkles in it would look amazing with this dress! Smiley love

    I love this dress! A veil would definitely go - I'd try on different ones to see what you're vibing with.

    I initially didn't want to wear a veil, but then tried one on and changed my tune!

    It's beautiful! I think it would look great with a cathedral length veil that has subtle shimmer and maybe a small amount of beading/pearls near the bottom.
