I have to say I went to check out Barrons and I wasn't impressed. It was like they couldn't be bothered. I could barely see the veils because they were behind the counter and the lady was like well pick one and after showing me two she was like well come back with a picture and was done with me!! I was so annoyed! I found one I liked at the salon I got my dress from but it was $250!! Where is everyone else getting theirs?

Re: Where is everyone getting their veil?
I ordered my veil at the bridal shop where I ordered my wedding gown...It was $$$ but I love it and it matches my dress perfectly.

Re: Where is everyone getting their veil?
EBAY!!!!!!!!!!
i got a 2 teir fingertip and a 1 teir cathedral for $32 or so and that was with shipping . the seller was a pleasure to deal with too
i belive it was this set ... i got white with white rat tail edging... i may be selling it though and purchasing another set without the edging. the ones i have now went with my dress but since i changed dresses i don't think the edging will look ok with my dress i have now.

Re: Where is everyone getting their veil?
I think I will get my veil at the same place I get my wedding gown. It's just easier for me b/c I want to make sure the color matches exactly.

just in case the bridal shop you bought your gown from has expensive veils, which many of them do. The bridal shop does give you a swatch of your dress when it comes in and you can take it elsewhere to have it made. The veils at my bridal shop were $1200-2k. They gave me a swatch though of my dress when it arrived, i went elsewhere and gave them my swatch to match the colors

i actually just ordered one from here today if i dont like it i can try out the woman from etsy or ebay - the veil i made on there was barely 50 bucks - i figure its worth a shot......i want something really plain anyway - i ordered a single layer, cut edge, standard fullness, waltz length veil - pretty much what i was looking for, hopefully i like it

Re: Where is everyone getting their veil?
Sorry to hear about your experience at Barrons. I am going through them for my veil and i found them so helpful and for the price ($40 for a two tiered elbow length) of something that I wont be wearing for very long it worked for me.
I didnt want to go through the internet b/c I wouldnt be able to try it on or see what it looked like before I purchased. Any other place was going to cost much more money than I was willing to spend.

Re: Where is everyone getting their veil?
I have to share my experience with Barrons. The lady showed me 2 headpieces, count them, 2. Then she got annoyed and with an irritated voice said to the guy, you help them. He takes over and shows me a few pieces, I was trying them on and then he goes, you need to come back when you have a better idea of what you want and went to help someone else. Ew.

Thats what I'm saying. I asked if I could go behind the counter to look through the veils since they were all clumped together, but was told no just pick one!
ETA: oops forgot I wasn't signed in under my name!!! This post is by nicopico13 not renee77......we're hanging out and on LIW together...addicted much!!

Re: Where is everyone getting their veil?
I got my veil at the brial store because I went to Barron's,. but without seeing it with the dress, I didn't want to take chances. So I paid almost 300.00 but I know it is a perfect match. I did order the tiara from Barron's though, because I thought as long as it was nice and sparkly, it would match, ha ha...
