how much are you spending on your veil?

I saw a silk organza short veil with blusher for $150. Am I paying too much? Where can I get something cheaper but of the same quality?

I'm thinking that might be about right since it's silk...
I'm paying about $155 to get my veil custom made by Occansey Designs. Includes a blusher, a cathedral, and she's adding appliques and crystals and such to the train so the pattern resembles the pattern on my dress.

You can check her out- not sure what she charges with silk....

I believe Sew Deb works with silk....do a search for her info and get a price!

I found the one that I love for $235 and refuse to pay that much...I went to tri-county and saw some there but they didnt have the one that I wanted...the woman said to wait till the summer...but the ones that I saw there were like $40
