When to take the veil off

I was intending to wear my veil for the entirety of the reception, but it's come to my attention that it's generally taken off after the ceremony. I can't remember what any of the brides did at weddings I've been to. The internet and old WW posts are divided between "do what you want" and "it's weird to keep it on."

What are y'all planning to do? I have a fingertip veil but I've read that the veil can become a nuisance as the night progresses. My veil is just so pretty and looks amazing with my dress.

Any advice on practicalities and etiquette?

    I'm planning on taking it off at cocktail hour, once the pictures are done being taken.

    Thank you! The color was hard to find. It's called a "stole" and the color is "blonde." I found it on Etsy from seller LaModeVogue. Good luck in your search and best wishes on your wedding!

    I was wearing a cathedral during ceremony and then fingertip one during reception. I did not take it off.
