Veil or no veil? Please send pics if you have some.

Alycia, on June 16, 2019 at 3:34 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 13

If you have pics of the back of your dress with a veil, please send them. I'd really like to see how veils work with various styles of dresses.This is the dress I'm thinking of getting. I love veils because they really complete the bridal look. I'm not sure if I should wear one with this dress, though. I've thought about wearing it for just the ceremony, but I don't know if I want to cover the lace and buttons for my bridal march. If I wear a veil, it would be at least fingertip length.

    I love this dress!! It's a tough call because I would definitely want my guests to see the back of this dress. But I would still want a veil

    If I did wear a veil, I would do a shorter one so that it didn't interfere with the lower part of your dress.

    Hey Alycia!

    This dress is absolutely stunning!! The back and the skirt are both spectacular!

    I don't think it would be an issue to wear a veil, I know you want to show off the beautiful detail but if you got a light veil your guests would still see it as you walk down the aisle. I've added a couple of photos below to explain what I mean.

    Oh wow! This would be perfect! I think I should still do elbow length to keep the skirt free. But the thin layer is beautifully bridal!

    The second one is perfect. I’ve never seen a veil so translucent. I love it!

    It was such a hard decision. Originally I wanted a birdcage veil, but decided against it. I'll wear flowers in my hair instead. I have seen some nice ways to do both, but I wanted to keep it simple. I'm going for this look:
