Veil websites or stores to shop at
I just got my gown on Monday night. Yipee! (MonCheri model b188, www.mcbridals.com, picture does not show the dress to well!) and I am starting to think of a headpiece , where should I start to look , are there any good websites or stores you can suggest? Also, where can I get those high healed white dancing shoes? I used to be a dancer and they are so comfy I was thinking of using them for the wedding day.

Re: Veil websites or stores to shop at
Congrads on finding your dress. That is such a great feeling. You must b so excited.
My SIL bought her veil and headpiece at the veilshop (I think www.veilshop.com).
I bought mine at C&H Bridal in NYC (40th/bet. 7th and 8th). It is a small shop but the woman gives you sooo much personal attention, she has ton sof headpieces and the prices are great. I had my first fitting yesterday and even the shop where I bought my dress loved my veil.

Re: Veil websites or stores to shop at
Got my veil at www.glamgal.com - it was custom made per my request and it was much, much cheaper than the quotes I got from other places.

Re: veil head and/or headpiece
To see what style goes best with your dress, I would suggest going back to the store you bought your dress at and, if they'll let you, try on the dress again, with different veils. You can act as if you're buying the headpiece or veil there, and then just say you need more time to think. Its definitely a good idea to try on your headpiece/veil with your dress, thats the only way to see what really goes well. Good luck!

Re: Veil websites or stores to shop at
I found the perfect headpiece in a booth in Tri-County . It matches my dress 100% and even has stones (like fake diamonds) that match my e-ring !!!!! I'm having the lady custom make me one just a little different from the one on display. She's also custom making a chiffon veil for me. All together priced at $140!!
