Well i ordered my veil and tiara today at Barrons. I really like my tiara, but my veil i'm still not sure about. the 2 together came to $350. *First of all is that a lot of $$?
The veil is really nice- my mom liked it. out of all the ones we saw at barrons it was the one i liked the best. BUT, i still feel unsure about it. i felt the same way when we ordered my dress and my weddding band. All 3 of these things were really nice and i liked them, but i don't LOVE them and that's what i want to feel. it's what i thought i'd feel but i don't. Maybe when they come in and it's my size and fits the way it's supposed to i'll feel differently. I think it also bothers me that i can't see how the veil and the dress look together. I'm afraid that it won't look right to me. even though i brought the pic of my dress to barrons, i want to be able to try them on together now. Sorry if this is too long- i just wanted to see if others feel the way i do.

Re: veil and tiara at Barron's
I got my viel from barrons and thought it was pricey as well BUT the viel that I loved was about double so that is why I went with it. The tiaras at barrons were also too expensive for me. I went to my local flea market in sayville and bought mine there. They were just as beautiful and cheaper. I would wait and try your items with your dress. You may feel better once everything is all together. HTH!

When you compare the veils and tiaras to ones in bridal salons, you'll see that Barron's is very reasonable. Plus they are truly custom made.

I got my veil and headpiece from Barron's, too. What does your veil look like? How long, how many layers? Beading? Embroidery?

Re: veil and tiara at Barron's
Totally feel the same way you do. My dress hasn't come in yet so we'll see about that. I changed my mind about the headpiece (no big deal it was $20 on ebay) and I haven't started looking for a veil yet because I am afriad to commit. But...my wedding ring came in this weekend....and I love it. I was glad because it was so big when I tried it on and hard to see exactly what it would look out. It came out great and I am completely in love with it. Hope you fall in love with all of your pieces when they come in!

Re: veil and tiara at Barron's
I got my fingertip veil scattered with a bunch of swarvoski crystals from Joan's Jewlery in Tri County and it was made to my liking and it cost $45. I think that $350 is a little much in tricounty. Her tiara's were a lot less. I paid about $100 for my veil and my tiara together!

Re: veil and tiara at Barron's
I thought barrons was very reasonable. Bridal Ref wanted $350 for a veil and I got exactly the same thing at barrons for $65. It is very simple -- one layer, angel cut with rolled ribbon edge (no crystals). I also got a crystal comb for $50 which was $200 at BR.
You maybe able to get it cheaper, but Barrons has come highly recommended by manys an has a very good reputation for quality and price.

ITA, My veil was very inexpensive and the quality was really good. I saved myself about 400 bucks!

Re: veil and tiara at Barron's
I agree, It's so nerve wracking! When I went to look at veils they were so expensive and then I found out about Barron's. I went the first time alone and was completely overwhelmed. The second time I brought my mom with pics of my dress and the sample the woman had of the veil i wanted was a little crappy. Now I'm so nervous to see the finished product. I'm picking it up in a week...I'm hoping everyone was happy with their finished veil!!!!

my veil is 2 layers, fingertip in white. there is crystals/beading along the edges which are scalloped just like my dress.

Re: veil and tiara at Barron's
i got my veil at barrons....i felt the same way about not seeing it with my dress (i bought a pic and swatch) but my friend that was with me said, dont worry this is what they do for a living, they know! so im putting my faith in that i dont think its expensive compared to what you would see in a bridal store - mine was more than i expected, but it had beading all around the edge so i guess thats why.

My veil is the same. Maybe you had a very expensive tiara? I bought a headpiece which was about $89, I think. In total I paid $220, though. They discounted my veil, not my headpiece.

Re: veil and tiara at Barron's
I got my headband, cathedral veil and blusher for $300 from Barrons. I think that was pretty reasonable considering BR was looking for at least that for just the headpiece alone!
