Your veil is your most important wedding accessory, and deciding on a style isn’t easy. Before you go shopping, you need to think about the style of veil and how you to plan to wear your hair.
Find a style of veil that works for you
• Try on several different veils with your dress to figure out which one works best for you.
• Make sure the wedding veil, especially if it’s got heavy trim, doesn’t cut across or obscure the most beautiful parts of your gown.
• Go for a simple veil if you’re wearing an ornate gown, but consider both ornate and simple veils if you’re wearing a simple dress.
• If you’re petite, look for shorter lengths and streamlined silhouettes to make sure the veil doesn’t overwhelm you.
Know how you plan to wear your veil
• If possible talk to your hairdresser about your wedding hairstyle prior to choosing a veil.
• Make sure you bring any hairpieces to your wedding hair trial to make sure your veil works with your preferred hairstyle.
• Try wearing your veil on different parts of your head. Some veils look best when worn high on the head, while others can be placed towards the nape of the neck.
• Consider a long veil with a detachable section so you can wear it to the reception without carrying it around on your arm all day.
