Your veil sets the <br>tone of your dress.
Style . . .
The veil style should complement the bride and the gown. This is a very personal choice. It is important to keep in mind that for a simpler wedding gown an ornate headpiece and veil will be more appropriate. However, for an elaborate gown a simpler long veil style will be more suitable. Remember that your headpiece and veil should not compete with your gown.
Length . . .
Whether it is one or four tiers, the length of your veil should be customized according to your height and special needs. An extravagant gown will always look stunning with a cathedral veil style.
Color . . .
The color of the tulle, lace and trim should be in harmony with your gown. Everything should look perfect together.
After selecting your gown, try on your headpiece, veil, underskirt and shoes for a complete look. Do not forget your hairstyle. By doing so, you can decide whether the overall look is what you have always dreamed of.

Types Of Veils
Types Of Veils
Blushers. You've heard of "the blushing bride," but does every bride need a blusher? Not necessarily. However, even when the ceremony doesn't require one -- and many do -- most brides still wear a blusher, which is lifted at a certain point in the service. It's your decision. Just remember, wearing a bridal veil is one thing you can never do again. Click here to view & buy Veils, Headpieces.
Decorative Veils. Decorative veils are a great way to go, especially if your dress is simple. "Edged veils are the number one item," remarked Pattie Winkler, manager of Suky Rosan, the prestigious bridal shop in suburban Philadelphia. "This is a gorgeous, sophisticated look. We edge the veil in the fabric of the dress or 1/8- to 1/4-inch silk ribbon. For another fabulous, very dressy style, we edge the veil in crystals, creating a shimmering effect as the bride walks down the aisle." It's almost like diamonds.
Also timeless: Droplets or appliqués. Like edging, pearl, crystal or rhinestone drops sprinkled throughout your veil add a touch of shimmer as you walk down the aisle. Click here to view & buy Veils, Headpieces.
Designer Veils. Not comfortable with all that glitters? Not to worry. Bridal gown designer and fashion guru Vera Wang is featuring a simple square-cut veil that sits on a comb atop the bridal mane. "No poufs, no flowers, no beads, just one veil which covers the face. It's Indian in inspiration," said Wang spokesperson Laura O'Brien. "It engulfs the bride in tulle. It makes it very special and very visual." And with the bride shrouded in such a way, "It certainly makes for a more mysterious ceremony." Click here to view & buy Veils, Headpieces.
The Mantilla. Another look in the limelight is the mantilla -- a Spanish-inspired veil edged with lace that will forever remind us of Grace Kelly. When model Annette Roque wore one at her wedding to Matt Lauer of NBC's "Today" show, brides and the headpiece industry turned heads. "We got phone calls from brides all around the country," said designer Newman. Giorgio Armani bridal wear has also featured the mantilla look. Click here to view & buy Veils, Headpieces.
