To Veil or not to Veil...

I was totally against it too but when you go to the bridal shops to try on dresses you feel like a bride in just the dress but as soon as they add the veil it completes it.  I'm so torn.

im going with a cathedral length veil.. at first i was unsure but then i realized im never going to have a chance to wear a veil again and im a sucker for the cathedral length veil + wind pictures... ill just be using a whole lot of bobby pins to try and keep the thing attached!!

i couldnt agree more! i am not going with a veil, i just dont want it blowing in my face and its not something i've ever wanted. but i think those that want it should go for it! you only get this one chance, who cares if its on the beach

I agree. I'm not wearing a veil. There is enough to worry about already lol!

I love elbow length veils a little more. Was gonna do cathedral, but don't want anything in the way of my dress

I was originally a yes on the veil, but then I watched a video of a DW where it was windy and the veil was blowing in everyone's face as the bride walked down the aisle - I just feel it would be too distracting to me and dangerous to those around me. I got a feathery hair flower instead.

I'm so conflicted on this as well, I love the look of just a head piece (flower, etc) but the veil is so traditional and really makes you feel like a bride I think.  So I'm still debating about what I'm going to do!

i dont know what to do either... originally i was doing with a side sweep for my hair and then incorporating flowers throughout ...but now im torn between that or a cage veil with a flower and feather. although its a destination wedding i think i still want my FI to move something out of the way to kiss me lol lol

 

i never really thought i would end up being so traditional, i just thought i  would go add a little and be done with it, and well now im adding all this traditional stuff. and its making my head spin!!!!

I couldn't agree more! At first I thought "no way" for the veil... but then I start getting all nostalgic that if I don't wear one I'll never get the chance again!
