help: veil length vs. dress

chitownshortie84

hi ladies! i need a little help choosing which veil would go best with my dress. i will be wearing a dress with a poufy skirt and cathedral length train. ive read that cathedral length veils and elbow length veils go best with this type of dress. the cathedral because it basically matches the train and compliments it; and the elbow because it helps to balance out poufiness of the skirt... i have noooo ida what look im going for yet and would like some of your opinions to help me decide... thanks a bunch!

Can you post a picture of your dress. It's difficult to give you an opinion without seeing all the details of your dress.

I would go with the elbow length veil. Your skirt has a lot of volume that I don't think a long veil would look right with it.

i would also go for a shorter veil. Cathedral length is too much for this dress IMO.

Oh my God, the chick in that picture cannot be real.  The boob to waist ratio is totally insane.Anyway, I'd go for a shorter veil, like an elbow.  There's already a lot going on and I think a cathedral would be just too much.

Brie- I had the same thought! TOTALLY Photoshopped! I personally love elbow length and think it goes well with almost every dress

I agree with elbow length. The model looks like barbie.
