Veil or no Veil? Help! PIP



With only 8 days til' the wedding I need to make a decision quick. I had my final fitting last night and I'm extremely uncomfortable in my dress because of the open back. I've been having some medical issues for the past several months, and I can't seem to get quite comfortable with my body in the dress. My seamstress suggested a veil to wear for the ceremony, and I like the idea.

What do you think? Veil or no veil?






Re: Veil or no Veil? Help! PIP

  • I love the veil! So pretty and I think your dress is gorgeous as well! :)
  • Your dress looks great! I also think that the veil looks very nice with the dress.
  • Are you wearing your hair up or down?  I think it looks great either with and without, but you should feel comfortable!
  • If your more comfortable i say wear it. But your dress looks great on you.

  • The dress looks great on you, but I love the look with the veil.  I also didn't originally think I wanted a veil, but when I put one on, I just felt so much more like a bride.

    I too really didn't want a veil but felt so "brial' to have it on. The dress looks great on you but I love the veil. It kinda completes your look but doesn't compete with your dress.

  • Whatever makes you comfortable! I personally LOVE your dress and my vote is no veil, I like looking at the back of the dress myself

  • I LOVE the back of that dress and it looks great on you! I say veil, at least for the ceremony. Anyone can wear a white dress, but only a bride can wear a veil :)

  • Daaaaang gurl! That dress! Them back muscles! That veil! I prefer the veil, but it's (obviously) up to you.
    And don't forget, the only people who will really care what your body looks like are you and your hubby-to-be. If he's marrying you, your FI already loves you inside and out. And in that dress, you look breathtaking.
