Had my 1st fitting on Fri...but now need different veil! Help!

My dress looked beautiful! I'm so excited. But, I had planned to use the veil that my sister wore for her wedding, but the color is off and now I need to buy one! I was hoping to save the $ by not having to buy a veil. Can anyone recommend somewhere that I can get a veil for not a lot of $$?

Tri-County, They have a few stands there and you can probably get a veil for $50.00

does the veil have to match? Personally I'd rather have the sentiment of wearing a veil from the family. Who cares if it doesn't match EXACTLY.....

BUT...if it must match I've heard great things about Pauls in NYC

Patchogue Floral. They have so many to choose from!

Well, the color was a little off- I'm not sure if anyone will notice, but the seamstress was saying that it didn't match. My sisters didn't think it was an issue. I just don't want to look silly!

I think the seamstress is trying to sell you on something. I have 2 veils - 2 different colors and neither 'matches' my dress. They complement each other and the dress. I'd tell the seamstress to shove it and wear your sister's veil. But then I'm a sap for sentimental stuff like that....

NYCMeghan- you are right! They probably wanted to sell me one of their $400+ veils. I'm just going to go with what I have- it will look great. Thanks for making me feel better.
