Veil Options - Advice Please!

Kelsie, on September 19, 2019 at 14:46 Posted in Wedding fashion 0 14

I'm in need of advice (and opinions) from my fellow WeddingWire brides and grooms.

I finally went in for my accessories appointment, which was a little awkward because I hate being the centre of attention so I tried my best to find something that I liked quickly.

I ended up with two options; one was simple, the other very dramatic. The problem is my mom liked the simple veil and my sister (who is usually very quiet) really liked the dramatic veil.

Veil A is the simple veil. It is also significantly cheaper as well. My mom really liked this one, I liked it as well - I think it shows my dress off nicely. I think I'm leaning towards this one.

Veil B - is the dramatic veil, with much more lace - it covers my dress a bit more. Much more expensive but my sister really, really liked it. The sample is ivory but it would be made in white I believe.

I think I'm only second guessing myself because it was the first thing my sister said she liked other than my dress.

What do you all think? Simple? or Dramatic?

    Update!! I bought Veil A yesterday after visiting another bridal shop to look at options (that were awful, I might add). Thank you to everyone who commented - your opinions were so helpful!

    I'm feeling a lot more confident in my choice and my sister actually loves the choice now as well.

    Next step - jewelry!

    I would do veil A. the second one mushs into the dress and its hard to tell where the veil starts and what is part of your dress. thats just my opinion tho!

    I would go with veil A - the simple one. Mostly because your dress has a lot of detail already lol

    I agree with the others who vote for the simple veil. Pairing a lace veil with a lace dress can be hard as the lace can compete with one another. the simple veil lets your dress shine more on it's own and only adds to your dress

    I'm going to say I am on team simple veil. Like Meaghan said already, I think the dramatic veil competes with the dress, especially where specifically it hits against the lace of the dress

    I agree with the other ladies, the simple one looks beautiful! It matches your dress just enough but doesn't take away from it!

    I like the simple one way more! IMO I think that a veil should be light and pretty but the more dramatic one looks like the lace trim is too "heavy" y'know?

    I really like the simple veil. Your dress is so beautiful and I think the dramatic veil competes with it.

    The simple one is just perfect!
