You finally found your wedding day look! Now you’re looking for the perfect veil to make you the perfect bride you’ve always dreamed of being. Choosing your wedding look is one of the most exciting parts of wedding planning, and now you’re finally ready to add the final piece to the puzzle. No matter what kind of bride you are, we have figured out the best wedding veils for you. Let’s start shopping!
The Vintage Bride
There’s something charming about vintage weddings. If you plan on having a wedding with an Old Hollywood theme, or with a 20s twist, here are some veils to consider.
Blusher
Next is the blusher. This is sort of a catch-all phrase, but it is typically a veil that covers the face completely. It’s a little more vintage in that modern brides have begun to ditch the blusher altogether. But, if you love the idea of your face being revealed once you’re at the altar, the blusher is a great place to start.
Double Tier
A double-tier veil can actually be applied to any veil style. However, it’s important to note the effect it gives. Depending on the material and how the draping is, you can create a vintage look with a double-tier veil. For instance, having two layers of volumized mesh material will create a true vintage-inspired veil.
Some other veils to consider looking into for the vintage bride include the Birdcage and the Juliet Cap veils.
The Timeless Bride
Onto the timeless bride. If you’re the kind of bride who is looking to be in a wedding that withstands the test of time, you have come to the right place. Here are some veils to add to your inspiration board.
Elbow + Fingertip Veils
One of the easiest ways to keep it timeless is by going for veils that fall in the middle of options. This is where the Elbow Veils and Fingertip Veils come into play. Just as they’re names hint at, they fall at the elbows or fingertips. These are also great options if you’re the bride who wants the skirt or pantsuit to still take center stage.
Flyaway
The flyaway veil is a great choice for the bride who really doesn’t want the veil to play a big role in their final wedding look. It’s one single layer of material and tends to be a simple take on the veil.
Another veil to consider looking into for the timeless bride is the Waltz aka Ballet veil.
The Regal Bride
Alright, if you read through all of the previous veil options and were not impressed, you probably fall under the regal bride category. You are looking for drama in your look, head turns, oooooh’s, and ahhs. Here are the perfect veils for you!
Mantilla
This Spanish-style veil has royalty written all over it. Its ties to the Catholic church. The stunning interiors add to the grand scale of the veil. The overall shape of this veil is circular and falls beautifully on any bride. The mantilla veil usually has lace trim all around the perimeter.
Waltz/Ballet
Last but not least, the longest veil option for the timeless bride. The Waltz Veil aka Ballet Veil usually falls below the knee and above the ankle. If you know you’re not looking for a dramatic veil but can’t quite commit to anything short, this is probably the best bet for you. It gives just a little bit of everything.
Some other veils to consider looking into for the regal bride include the Cathedral and Chapel veils.
