Type of veil to compliment wedding dress

Alexis, on August 20, 2020 at 6:43 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 15
Hello lovely folks! Need some input! Having such a hard time deciding what length would be a good match for my dream wedding dress (recieved it from etsy a few weeks ago! Tried it on, pictured) I was toying with blusher or angel cut! I want something elegant and simple, but have no clue if those would be a good match - I also thought a birdcage might work??? Ah. Thoughts?



Note: Also considering delicate hanging earrings

    I know nothing about veils but wanted to say that your dress is absolutely gorgeous and stunning on you!


    I think we have the same shield, too. It’s what my wedding colors/theme is based on lol.

    Long crystal tear drop earrings definitely! Swavorski (shimmers of colors) - teardrop necklace


    Veil- I could see a beautiful cathedral length veil. Have you tried on any?

    Funnily enough, I didn't even consider a cathedral length! I was worried it would be too much, but now I'm starting to imagine it and wow. Yes.


    I haven't tried on any unfortunately! I wanted to narrow down my ideas before doing so and cannot wait to try some on!!
    Ooooh thank you for the earring recommendation

    I second cathedral-length veil, or chapel if you don't want a long train. Or no veil with a flower crown. Hanging, statement earings without a necklace would look good. Or studs with a delicate necklace that doesn't dangle or a choker necklace. My unsolicited opinion, lol.

    Your unsolicited opinion is very welcome here lol It is insanely refreshing to get an idea of what others can picture to complete the wedding look! Thank you, i hadnt considered a delicate necklace, I like that. A flower crown could be very pretty too

    I love the idea of a birdcage rather than a veil with that dress

    I love your dress and it looks great on you! I also like the idea of flower crown or birdcage instead of long veil.

    Lovely dress! I think a single tier, raw edge, tulle veil maybe sweep length would be fabulous. Ethereal and flowy like your dress but not too much.

    I don’t think a birdcage or short veil would be good because I think it would take the focus away from the beautiful neckline and sleeves. I think a longer chapel length veil that you put a little lower so it doesn’t go over your shoulders and compete with the sleeves. Or no veil and a flower crown!

    If that’s you in that picture, I completely envision your hair the way it is, and I can totally see those long crystal Swarovski crystal tear drop. The lights and sun (if outdoors) will add all sorts of beautiful colors (light you up)


    I wouldn’t have normally chosen a long veil like that, but I can totally see you standing just as you are with that veil.
    But some from Amazon Prime to try and return within 30-days

    I would wear a flower crown with the fro (with lots of baby’s breath) and a plain tulle cathedral length veil.

    I just looked at your dress picture again (from a PC this time and not my "tiny" phone) and I have to say, I still stand by my suggestion. (The pink one comes in many colors too)
