Frequent Q/A On How To Wear A Veil
A Few factors you need to consider before choosing the length of your veil. (Choose the hairstlye first and consider the formality of the ceremony)
Wear are you going to have it in your hair for example over your face, at the back of your head or you are having your hair in a French roll or beehive then the veil will sit under your hair
What to consider when choosing a veil
If you are wearing it over your face, then the veil will sit on top of your head, you will need to purchase a 2 tier veil and making it a focal point by having a tiara
If you are wearing it at the back of the head, you can purchase a single tier which will allow you to see more of the dress underneath it.
It is also a good idea to purchase a comb so you can replace the veil with a comb after the ceremony, so the hair is kept really nice and dressed afterwards
You need to consider the style of dress you have. Choose your dress first, and then accessories with the veil
If you have lots of detail on your dress for example a sash or buttons etc. at the back, you would not want to wear a short veil, it would be best to go for a long flowing single tier veil that will allow you to see all the detail at the back
If you don’t want to wear a long veil and have a very simple dress at the back OR the details are on the front of the dress then it’s a good idea to have a ¾ length veil and the trimming on the veil becomes the detail on the back
Does my veil material have to match my wedding gown
The material of your veil does not need to match your wedding gown however the colour should match, it is also important that your veil should have similar beadwork to your gown and similar edging as shown on your gown so that the 2 are paired together and look like they were made for each other
Plain veil- if your dress is much decorative you would want a plain veil
Patterned veil- if you have a plain dress the decoration veil can accessorise the dress easily
