which veil with this dress?

This is my dress although I changed it to a sweetheart neckline. I'm very torn between a flowy chapel length veil or the vintage cage veil.

I would go cathedral. I love the long flowy veil and if my dress wasn't 'so much' I would've loved to have one and I think it will go better with your dress. JMO

I would wear a long chapel or cathedral length veil. The catherdal length looks stunning and elegant. Love your dress BTW!

Re: which veil with this dress?

I would go for a long veil. I think chapel length is good. I would try both a cathedral and chapel length.

Can someone tell me the difference between chapel and cathedral? Is chapel shorter? I'm getting married outside to the cathedral might be too long.

Re: which veil with this dress?

If you're that torn, you might as well go with the cage net because it's something different and a little daring!!

I think that would be cool.

If you want to play it safe, you can never go wrong with the flowy chapel or cathedral length.

Anyhow, did you change to a sweetheart neckline AFTER you got the dress (meaning you took it to a seamstress) or were you able to pre-order it with the modification?

I've been toying with the idea of doing this to my dress, which I already have. It's from David's Bridal so I just had to take it how it comes, but i was considering bringing it to PHyllis or something for the modification but am a little nervous as to how it will come out, of course.

chapel is shorter.
Cathedral is the longest, I believe and you can get some that are reeeeeeeeeally long.

Yes, chapel is shorter. You can always bustle the veil too.

Re: which veil with this dress?

I had the seamstress change the dress to a sweetheart. I started panicking after I did it but it came out great.

I say the vintage cage veil! It will look stunning.

Re: which veil with this dress?

those two veils are soooo different, I like the idea of the cage veil bc its so retro and i love that whole look, but it totally depends on your taste....the chapel length i think is more romantic looking, while the cage is more chic/glam
