Elbow- Hits right at...yeah, the elbow. Great for a short or tea length style! Fingertip- Our most frequently chosen length, hits your fingertips with your arms down to your side. Will not obscure the view or the back of the gown and comes just under your most valuable asset (iykwim). Ballet- falls just at the knee- this style looks best when the train edge and veil edge match! Waltz- hits right at ankle height. Like the ballet, a complimentary edge is must! Floor- Should just graze the floor just like the front hem of your gown. Chapel- will pool on the ground and trail behind you about a foot or so.
Juliet Cap- A veil that had a “cap” on it that fits your head much like a hat! (Downton Abbey vibes). Flower Crown- A laurel of flowers that fits your head like a halo. Can be combined with a veil or worn alone! When in doubt or if needing veil recommendations, ask your bridal consultant (that goes for all things wedding-fashion). We understand how important this aspect of bridal wardrobe is and if your associate is anything like me, they had visions of the perfect veil flash before their eyes when you tried on “THE DRESS.” Please understand that if we cry a little with mom and grandma, it’s because we are under the spell of the veil too. There’s power in that delicate piece of fabric!
Cathedral- Our second most common choice of brides brings the drama with about a fourfoot trail. Royal- Princess Diana vibes, this style refers to anything longer than 140 inches. Veil Terminology Mantilla- A traditional Spanish-style veil that lays flat on your head (think Mary, the mother of Jesus but with Lace or beading around the face) See our masquerade shoot in this episode for a visual! Blusher- The name for the part of a veil over the face that a groom lifts to kiss his bride. (Ladies, this does not work well with beaded hair accessories, as it's easy to get tangled). ENGAGED!
