Shop all. Length of Wedding Veil The most important consideration that you must first establish is what length of wedding veil you are after. Width of Wedding Veil Wedding veils traditionally come in three different width sizes. Colour Mo st brides traditionally opt for a veil the same colour as their dress in white, off white or ivory.
Number of Tiers Veils can have up to three tiers, with the choice largely dependent upon your style of dress. Any Extras? Handmade in England. I agree. Veil width: narrow to medium fullness. This guidance applies to wedding dresses in general based on my observation and personal opinion but it all comes back to your desired bridal look and personal preferences.
Satin, cotton, chiffon, lace, tulle, silk and the list goes on. Now you can decide on the detail of your veil like the edging and embellishments. If you are wearing a lace wedding dress and you want to wear a lace edged veil, you have to make sure that the lace trim matches the lace on your dress. Don't let the veil overpower the details of your dress and take the attention away from your dress.
A plain veil will suit any dresses but if you are wearing a satin dress, perhaps you should consider a satin edged veil to complement your dress. You may also try to mix and match as long as your veil and your dress complement each other well. This post may contain affiliate links. Please read our disclosure for more info. Today I want to focus on the last point in the list above: the bridal veil.
Specifically, how to choose a complimentary veil length for your beautiful gown — the one you spent countless hours scouring bridal stores! There are many different options when it comes to buying your veil. Things like length, material, , trims , or embellishment mean it can be overwhelming to know where to start. The decision to buy one veil over another really comes down to how much you want to jazz up or soften the look of your wedding dress.
With that in mind, I have put together a complete guide to wedding veil lengths to help you choose the perfect one for your big day. Birdcage veils are the perfect length for an outdoor wedding: short! Traditionally, birdcage veils are short and extend just past the chin. However, some brides wear them to the side to allow the netting to sweep across their face for a more dramatic and bold angled look.
A birdcage veil is great if you want a vintage vibe, but also work well to add a bit of drama. Fashion forward, vibrant, and confident brides-to-be love a birdcage veil on their big day.
They have a similar feel to a fascinator, which one would find women wearing at a British horse racing event. Each side of a visor veil can be pinned behind the ears. Visor veils usually have some sort of embellishment on one side, like a fabric flower or rhinestone comb, for an added touch of elegance. Would love to get your opinion on a veil for Mikaella in the Natural color which seemed a lot whiter in person than in the picture, so would very much appreciate your thoughts on color.
I love the look of a long ungathered drop veil, but wondering if that will overwhelm me? Thank you so much! Hi, I am looking for a veil for my Enzoani Lesley wedding dress. From googling and looking on social media a lot of brides opt out of a veil for this dress so I am struggling to pick one.
Can you suggest what would complement the dress please? I know that I want a long veil, and single tier.
Also the straps on the dress are diamante. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you Natalie. I think a single layer veil like our Brooke in chapel length or our Jessica in cathedral length would be perfect!
I wanted to try and give you some kind of idea with a picture for inspiration. Not the same dress, obviously, but similar in the amount of lace, the straps etc and shown with a single layer long veil. Hi Sarah, your dress is gorgeous! You can definitely wear a headpiece and a veil. This is a very popular option as you still have something when you remove your veil.
From looking at your dress, I would recommend a hair vine. You can have a look at the different options here. Hi, Amazing website! Any ideas would be greatly appreciated If there is nothing that you have then I would be willing to go down the custom route to get the best one to suit. Hi Joanne! First of all your dress is stunning!! To get the perfect veil for you we would suggest a custom design.
The Serena veil is longer than the chapel but it is a really good example of our crystal beading. Who would have thought. Thinking cut edge so matches skirt hem with scattered pearls and have no clue for no of layers. What could you advise? Picked a dress completely different to what I thought now such a dilemma. What a stunning dress!! So sorry to completely throw you even more but I would pair your dress with a Chapel length veil which would perfectly frame the train of your dress.
I would have this in our Italian Style, pale ivory tulle. I would recommend going for the simple one layer so as not to distract from your beautiful bodice!! Oh my goodness! This site is amazing and has been incredibly helpful!
I am struggling with my veil choice and the information you provided is so good! I am a plus size bride, so I do not want to add more width than I already have.
I am going for a very classic, elegant, princess type of vibe. The dress has beautiful beading that I was considering matching on the edge of the veil. I have also considered a lace-trimmed veil. My biggest struggle right now is a long vs. Does having sleeves make a difference on which length to choose? I feel like I am all over the place! Aww, fab! You could go with waist-length if you like but I feel a longer veil keeping it slim down the back and keeping it out of the way of your sleeves so it is not too busy!
As said before, I would have the Italian style tulle in pale ivory which is our most sheer fabric so your detail on your dress will be completely seen through the veil. Hi Team, this is such an informative and helpful site…. Hi Sarah. I love your dress, especially the little embellished cap sleeves!
I would probably go with our Italian tulle as the holes in the fabric are the smallest so less likely to snag on your gorgeous beading. Let me know what you think. Hi Cora. This has helped me tremendously!! I am wearing the allure wilderly august dress minus the sleeves.
I would like a blusher veil. Do you have any suggestions that would match with the unique lace of this dress? Hi Kristen, is it possible for you to send me a picture of the dress, and a close up of the lace at all please? Sam pickford Bridal Consultant. Thank you for this helpful guide! I wonder if you could recommend a veil for my dress please. I am wearing Grady by Maggie Sottero. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Hi Lilly, I love your dress!! I would go with something plain and chapel length.
I would also suggest you go for our Italian Style, Pale Ivory. This tulle is out most sheer fabric but also the most dense. It has the smallest holes in the tulles so is less likely to catch on your beading at the top of your dress. You will also be able to see the overall dress detail through the veil.
This guide is very helpful, but I am really torn between two options and I am not sure which way to go. I am torn between getting something with a bit of lace at the bottom to frame the dress or keeping a simple plain veil so that the dress stands out. I would love to hear your recommendations — I am planning on wearing a two-layer chapel length veil. Hi Elizabeth, wow! Your dress is gorgeous! I would be tempted to go for a simpler veil so not to distract too much from the beautiful detailing of your dress.
Have a look at our Siobhan veil, two layer, chapel length, hand stiched pencil edge and our falling stars design created with subtle diamantes. Hi, thank you so much for this guide! I would love to get your thoughts and recommendations! Oooh love the dress! So classic. Satin edging could tie in really well. Or you could absolutely have a drop veil with a strung pearl edge. Maybe samples would help?
However, I am still undecided on what type of veil to go for. I am thinking about a long veil, but not sure whether floor or chapel length would be better. I would also like the veil to be quite sheer. Also not sure whther I should go for something simple, like the satin edge one or with lace. I like the idea also to wear rustic looking flowers on my hair we are getting married outside in Tuscany , but not sure if these will look good with a veil.
Please, help! I think either plain or lace would work best for a rustic theme. Too many satin lines, potentially. For the length, it looks like it only has a small puddle train so floor length would work or chapel length could be used to add length. I need help. I tried on a fingertip rhinestone edge veil but not so sure now.
I will be wearing Enozani Pippa dress in Ivory. Was also thinking of doing a side rhinestone comb but not sure if that goes with a veil. Any suggestions would help. Thank you so much. I could see a rhinestone edge veil working well with your chosen dress. Maybe about fingertip length? Looking for a two tier but not sure about length and whether sequins or pearls or both. I always think a long veil is safer for shorter brides as with a short to mid-length veil, you risk the end of the veil hitting you at an awkward spot that makes you look even shorter.
