What kind of veil??

My dress is all lace...very similar to Maggie Sottero's Harlow. What kind of veil do you recemmend??

I don't want cathedral (I will ruin it!), and I don't think mantilla will look right since the lace won't match.

Would a plain, rolled edge, elbow-length veil look ok??

TIA!!!!

Ahhh I was going to suggest Mantilla.
I have all lace and I'm wearing a Mantilla veil. But then again the designer of my dress made the veil too. I have pics of it in my album... and there's also pics of my all lace dress (well not the EXACT One... but one that looks JUST like it).

Hmm.. what if you just do something simple? Is your dress very detailed with the lace? Is there beading too?? Maybe you can match the beading on the dress to the veil... or if there is crystals you can match that.

I like the fingertip length veils...but it also all depends on the cut of the dress and what style you like.

You can get a mantilla made to match your lace. I have a mantilla veil and it doesn't really match the lace on my dress and it still looks good.

I had the same issue and went with a more plain veil. Mine just has small pearls and a few small crystals on the trim.

I didnt want to take away from my dress by wearing a veil with a whole lot of designs on it.
