Beyond length, familiarize yourself with other terms to describe veils. Again, thank you Southbound Bride for these photos.
a photo of me putting on my veil before the wedding ceremony
A month before my wedding, it dawned on me that I actually wanted a veil. Never thought I would! My dress was backless, and I realized I wanted to be a bit more covered up at the ceremony.
I had no idea there were so many different types of veils! A Cliff Notes version for you below! (I ended up going with ballet/waltz length).
Your dress comes first as the color & style of the dress will determine which veil options will best compliment. Don't follow in my footsteps and choose your veil a month before the wedding unless you want a limited selection & rush fees. Like wedding dresses, veils take longer than you think!
Thank you Southbound Bride for these photos.
