Wearing veil the whole night or during ceremony only?

Tina, on June 9, 2014 at 2:36 AM Posted in Planning 0 19

I was thinking of taking the veil off after the ceremony but I don't have a hair clip or anything. Do people normally wear their veils during the reception?

    I'm not wearing my veil during the reception. I think it looks kind of silly. I don't have any type of hair accessory either.

    I'm wearing a chapel length veil, which I think would be a pain to wear during the reception. I'm only wearing it during the ceremony.

    I'm wearing it only for the ceremony.. I didn't even want a veil at all to begin with but then when they "jacked me up" in the store I reconsidered and will be wearing one for the ceremony only

    I am on the fence about this one but am leaning towards keeping my veil on since I am considering I only get to wear a veil once in my life without looking silly, but then again I might just wear it for part of the reception as it might get cumbersome after a while.

    I'm taking mine off after the ceremony. Now that I think of it, I don't think I've been to a wedding where the bride wore it through the reception.

    I'll probably wear mine only for the ceremony. I have a simple tiara that I wanted to wear as well, so I'll probably stick that on and take the veil off when we are bustling my dress and whatnot before the reception.

    I'm only wearing mine for my ceremony and pictures, but after that (and for my Thai ceremony) it'll come off.

    I don't have my dress or veil yet, so it's hard for me to say with total confidence what I will do. But I will most likely only wear the veil for the ceremony. I've also thought about not doing a veil at all and wearing a flower crown instead. Guess it all depends on what my dress looks like lol. But I have seen both done, usually though at weddings I have been to the bride doesn't have her veil on during the reception.

    I THINK only during the ceremony...guess I never thought about it. But I think most brides take them off after the ceremony - hard to party in a veil!

    I can't say that I have ever remembered seeing one of my brides in a veil the whole time.

    I wore mine all night, although it did slip out and I had to keep putting it back.

    I'm planning to wear it all night if I can, but if it starts to bug me off it comes!
