Hmmm Veil.....

Hello girls

So I got my dress... ***edited to delete the dress due to FH snooping around forums*** Thanks for your help!!

It has 2 runners (not sure that's what it's called ;)) of color in the back down the train and then the train is beaded... I was wondering if I'd wear a Cathedral Veil with it... I just think that veil looks so cool and traditional... but then my dress is a bit modern... and the back is the most beautiful part.

What do you think? Do you think the cathedral veil would take away from the dress over all?

Are there any other brides getting married in a dress with color? What kind of veil do you think you'll go for?

I thought picking the dress would be the hardest part of my wardrobe for the day.... but it turns out it was the easiest!


(oh! I'm getting married in a Roman Catholic Church) ... and my train is semi-cathedral.

Thanks for your opinions!

***edited*** I had to delete the dress out of my post since FH is now looking around on the forums... can't risk it :)
Thank you to all the girls who helped me out!

I think you can definitely wear a cathedral veil. Though the color makes your dress a bit modern, the dress itself is still a traditional style dress with a long enough train that the veil will look lovely!

edit: I do think you could go either way though because the dress detail does speak for itself! Im not wearing a veil at all but i thikn if you love the cathedral length you should go for it!

you can def wear the cathedral veil! you can always take it off at the RH but remember you probably wont want to wear such a long viel for the reception so you may want to consider getting a second smaller viel if you want to wear it througout the night!

and welcome!

Thank you for welcoming me!!!

and thank you all so much for your help so far.

I might go for 2 veils depending on the price... or maybe I'll take it off... ugh FH doesn't even want me to wear one at all.. he's nuts!

Congrats and welcome! That's such a pretty dress. I think you should go with a shorter veil and let the dress be the main attraction. But, I would try all lengths on and see what works.
