I paid $200 for a custom made elbow length veil and blusher with pearls and crystals. I love it and it was worth every penny.

It's the first booth in this Indoor Flea Market in Levittown called Tri-County. It's on Hempstead Turnpike. I got my head piece there, but the veil on ebay for less, but the guy at Barron's was really helpful.

In the Tri Coutny flea market on Heampstead Turnpiek inlevitown.

I got my veil from veilshop.com- very reasonable. I had the comb removed & loops put on, at barron's.

The one I tried on at the brial shop was also about $300!

I shopped around for months to find my perfect veil, so i succumbed to the 489.00 price tag...
i wanted exactly what i found, and looked EVERYWHERE including barrons for it...it had to be done..ridiculous i know

I got my Tiara at Fantasia Bridal Center in Rocky Point, if you buy both your headpiece and veil there, the one the is more $$$$ you get it half price. Because my tiare was discontinued i payed $52.00 for it and my will only cost me $125. instead of $250.
