Veil help!!!

Veil help!!!

I can't find what I'm looking for anywhere. I don't want to spend a ton of money on a veil since I'll only be wearing it for the ceremony and some pictures. The one they put on me with my dress is stunning but $250 so out of the question. I didn't get a very good picture of it at the time, so this is something like what I'm looking for. I want it to be short, probably elbow length, one tier, with lace appliques, but no lace on the edging or at least not along the whole edges. I've looked at DB and E-bay and a few other sites and I just can't find what I'm looking for!! Help me ladies!! TIA!

ETA: The first veil picture is an Enzoani veil and therefore !

What about the flea market everyone always talks about?

My aunt went over to check it out, but said she didn't see anything like what I was looking for. She could be wrong, I guess I have to take a trip out there.

Try Ebay...

There's also a website I'll prob be ordering mine from...Victoria's Veils...

Also, I'm not sure how their pricing is but there is a place in the city that will custom make a veil for you. Again, no idea on the pricing but maybe it's worth a shot - Bridal Veil Falls

what about posting an alchemy request on etsy?

does it have to be white? my fbil just got married in july and his wife had a veil just like that but it was ivory or darker. i dunno if she's willing to sell it but i could ask

Nope, ivory is actually better! My dress is ivory. Hmmm I hadn't thought about the alchemy request though! That's a good idea! Thanks!

I haven't been, but my mother said there is a Veil stand at Tri-County in Levittown that has a lot of nice veils... If you're close it might be worth a look, or maybe call them (I think they have phones) and ask if they have what you're looking for.

I know this isn't the prettiest example of what you're looking for but it's close! This person may be able to custom make one for you!

That's the one I was looking at, too! I'm going to price it out. Maybe I'll go by Barron's to ask about custom veils, too. Does anybody know ballpark how much they'd charge for a custom elbow length veil?

Barron's charges by the yard for their lace and for the tulle (the actual veil). I got a cathedral veil with lace all along the bottom and crystals (those are extra too) for $250. I would imagine yours would be around half of that if not less.
