How many of you are wearing a veil? I'm kind of stuck with this idea. When I 1st bought my dress I said no veil because I don't like them and I was just gonna wear a blingy headpiece. Now I see different styles online and they're actually nice. What to do??????

Re: To veil or not to veil that is the question
I wore one and loved it. I took it off after the first or second dance I forget, but loved having it as part of the day. There's definately sooo many styles out there.

Re: To veil or not to veil that is the question
you will never ever get to wear a veil ever again...so Wear it!!!!
I honestly think that without a veil, you are just a girl in a white dress...I think the veil really completes the whole look and is what makes a bride look like a bride
thats obvi just my opinion!
you can always take it off at some point

Re: To veil or not to veil that is the question
I was absolutely positive that I was not going to wear a veil. Then when my dress came in and I went to try it on, my MOH who was with me said to just try one, and I loved it. Now I'm so happy that I decided to order one (Barrons, too - they are making exactly what I want)

If you are worried about the length of the viel and it getting in the way, you could always bustle the veil up for the first dance. It will shorten the length of the veil and still look beautiful! HTH!

I was so against wearing a veil at first but then decided to wear one just for the ceremony. It is a very short veil, I believe it's called shoulder length, but it does complete the wedding look!

Yes!!! I think it looks so pretty! I've seen it done where a button is added to the comb underneath the veil and a loop is added to the underside of the veil. When you are ready to bustle it, you just attach the loop to the button it bustles just like a dress!
At the end of this thread there is a pic of a veil bustled.

If you want to, you can definitely bustle the veil, but you don't 'have' to do anything. I'm so sick of people telling brides what they have to do. Do you WANT to wear the veil through the first dance?

At first I thought that I didn't want to wear a veil but realized that this is the only time in my life that I will be able to wear one. I think it completes the bridal look. I am only going to wear it for the ceremony though and then take it off.

Re: To veil or not to veil that is the question
im wearing a cathedral and a fingertip. Im taking the cathedral off after pictures and wearing the shorter one for the rest of night, To me a veil makes the bride even if you were it for just a short time.

Re: To veil or not to veil that is the question
I planned to only wear my veil for the ceremony and then for a few pictures and then take it off and just have my headpiece on for the reception. I wound up keeping it on all night.
