LOL yeah, that was gonna be my suggestion...not sure it's so common nowadays, but I know that you could but a veil on a FG if you wanted.
Love your ideas though. But does this mean that you won't have the so popular Yankee garter?! ;)

I love the idea of you wearing a part of it on your wedding day!
My mom rented everything she work on her day . She is really not the sentimental type!

Re: My mom just gave me her veil - WITH PICS!
Is there any way someone could restore it for what you might pay for a new veil? I'd be so excited if I could wear something of my mom's as it was then on my wedding day!
THANK YOU - that's so great!! The more i am thinking about it, the more i like the idea of being able to get it fix and wear it!! Something I am def. going to keep in mind - thanks for sending the link

Re: My mom just gave me her veil - WITH PICS!
love the idea of wrapping your bouquet with the lace!!!! For my sister's wedding, my mom took pieces of my sister's dress that were altered and made a ring pillow, not sure if you can do something like that...
ALso the headpiece has nice pieces of lace too you can use that with your bouquet or as the garter like you said, such good ideas!

NP, that was just a quick google search too, I'm sure there are local places as well if you look a little harder than I did
