Veil color

Cat, on February 5, 2019 at 4:31 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 19
Hey again guys!!!

Question, does the veil have to match the dress?? My dress is champaign/ gold color (pics attached), but I only see white or black veils online. Should I get one made to closely match it, what do you think?

Veil color 1

Veil color 2

Veil color 3

    First off, your dress is beautiful!

    Etsy has some different veils to choose from. I love the ombre, so different! I see one seller (BlissWeddingVeil) on there that will let you buy swatches so that you can get something close to your dress.

    I agree!

    I used Etsy seller Bridals by Teri and she offers swatches too. If you're torn between two swatches, I'd go with the lighter veil shade.

    Thank you!! I took my sweety to look at dresses at David's Bridal with the bridesmaids. We were bored and just went. I wasnt planning on buying a dress there. Funny thing is i tried on this waaaaay out of budget dress and i fell in love, but we couldnt afford it. The next day, he surprised me with it, saying, my face lit up when i was in it. I cried. I love that man. Lol. Altering the dress to be strapless. So technically he hasn't seen me in my wedding dress yet lol

    Ivory or champagne would work best. Some places can dye them and some make them in different colors.

    Champaign would be a nice touch. Just seems the white and ivory veils aeem too bright against the dress

    I agree. You don’t want something that clashes. I need a black one so I’m definitely on the hunt for colored veils.

    I bought a black dress! I’ve never pictured myself in a white dress and have always felt so confident in black. I’m looking for a long sheer black one with minimal lace and maybe a bit of sparkle.

    I so want to go dress shopping with you! Lol! I think that is so cool to pick black!! I never wanter the white dress either. I wanted to do a red dress, but made the mistake of caring about other folks opinions. I regret it now.

    Could you budget in a less expensive red reception dress? I almost did red for my ceremony but got red for the reception instead. I’m trying to have as much fun with it as possible.
