Veil Question

Us girls on the 05 board is trying to figure this out, but it's like the blind leading the blind, so we're going to the professionals!

I want to wear my hair in an updo, but I want to wear a blusher too. But I haven't seen any brides wear an updo and a blusher. Can this be done? I would like to wear the veil behind the updo like the picture so that I can show off my hair, but at the same time, I want to have my face covered in the church (and hair). Can this be done? If so, can you please show me pictures. How was the veil attached?

PS: Do you think a silk tulle veil is better for this type of style because of the way it falls?

Oh, if you want to see what we were coming up with on the 05 board....

PS: I wanted to thank StayandJohn and 070502 for their help.

Yes you can have a blusher with an updo. What I did..
I had the tiara with a pile similiar to the pic. I had an elbow length 3 tier veil with removable blusher. The veil comb was placed on the back of my head just above where the tiara ended.

I put the blusher up over my head and the tiar and it fell even with my boobs. It looked spectacular! After the ceremony, I was suppose to remove it(it had velcro) but I liked the full look it left on my head and I left my veil on the whole time!

Oh my material was not silk tulle, you don't need it and it's way more expensive than what you have. My material was the same as yours in the pic, at least it seems.

Ask away if you have any questions!

I had a two-tier fingertip veil that I wore under my updo. All I did was flip one layer over my head on the way down the aisle and it covered my face completely down to about the middle of my arm. Sorry about the poor quality of the pic, but you get the idea.

Here's a link to my LIW album and you can see how my veil is under my hair.
