Where did you get your VEIL from?

Hi girls! I'm in the process of looking for veils and i wanted to know where you got or will get your veils from? I ordered one from ebay but the quality wasn't that great. (A lil too stiff) I don't want to spend an arm and a leg for something i'm going to wear for 30 minutes max (planning to wear only for ceremony). Anyone buy from veilshop.com or weddingveil.com?
Please let me know of where i can get a nice quality veil for cheap!

I have heard through the girls on here about Barrons in Tri-County flea market. I hear they are pretty cheap and can do whatever you ask of them.

I myself purchased my veil through where I am getting my dress from. The veil they chose complimented my dress so well I could not say no. It did cost me a lot though.

They are located on Long Island on Hempstead Turnpike in Levittown.

They are right by the Wantagh Parkway and Meadowbrook Parkway. I am really too sure how to tell you to get there from Queens. I am sorry.

I got mine from www.trupink.com Pics in album. They have thier veils for 20% off right now.

I heard that about some of the veils on ebay....being stiff. Guess they don't use the good material.......not sure?? I know there are good sellers on ebay though that sell soft ones.....I've heard brides give good reveiws.....just can't remember the name of them........

Hopefully you find one though!!! Good Luck!

from northern state parkway, take the NSP to the meadowbrook (south- but i think you can only go south!) and get off at Hempstead Turnpike (24) east. You will pass a hospital, stores, etc.,, and Tri County Flea Market (Big Blue and White building) will be on your left. Barrons is right there as soon as you walk in the front doors.

I recall hearing stiff veils are usually made from polyester / artificial fibers..... Unfortunately real silk tulle is really

your best bet to get a quality veil may be to purchase a designer veil from another bride.....

Re: Where did you get your VEIL from?

Such a coincidence that you should ask this question tonight....I just got back from the Tri County Flea Market veil shopping!! I highly suggest going there...the veil was beautiful and it will be totally custom made. I want finger length with a little piping and about 15 rhinestones spread out....he told me $60!! David's Bridal wanted 148 for the same darn thing!! Happy shopping!!

Also Barron's - they custom made my two tier, fingertip with silver edging and scattered rhinestones.

Here's a pic - though you can't really see the rhinestones or edging. Their prices and service were great.

I got mine from Princess bridals. [never ever would eveerrr suggest that place! the only horrible vendor!] It was made special for me!
I was trying to find a close pic of it in my proofs, but I cant. it fell the perfect length, and it had these details at the bottom, so it would shine in all different lights! :)

I got my veil from veilshop.com!! I love my veil. What made me buy from them is their return policy. Unless you order certain custom stuff, you can return within 7 days.
