Help Me Pick a Veil (long)

Ok, Ladies...I am stumped.  I cannot decide which veil I like the best, so I decided to defer to my vintage cohorts.  So, this is the dress (more pics in bio)


Here are my veil choices:
1)

2)

I also have a cathedral length veil that my step mother purchased for me that I am not sure will look right with the gown.  Here is an image of what how the longer veil may look with a puddle train (this is a ceremony only option)
3)


I also have this hair pin to wear that goes with the shorter veils
and I have this flower that I could wear with the longer veil

Re: Help Me Pick a Veil (long)

  • I picked #1, I think that goes best with the dress.... but I'd also consider switching the pink out for the feathery flower. I think both options would look good.
  • I don't think the cathedral veil will go, unfortunately, you could try it with the dress and see, if not, I definitely prefer the second veil.

  • I vote for the first veil, but with the white flower, BUT I like the pink feather one too.

  • I think the white flower with the illusion veil (#1) would look best.. actually either of the short veils would work!  The cathedral veil would only work if your gown had a long train, I don't think it looks right with the style you have.

  • I picked the 2nd veil with the flower.

  • Thanks Ladies for the opinions...you guys are just as torn as I am...

    I found these online at this Etsy shop, they were both only $24, so I just decided to get both and figure it out later.

  • I voted for the second veil because of your location, I just think it would look great in your pics. I also suggest it with the bigger flower because it goes so well with your dress and it looks like you had it on in some of your bio pics and it looked great on you! I really like the pink feather hairpiece too. The cathedral is pretty but I'm not sure if it fits your theme or dress.

  • I think that number 1 veil with the white flower would look fantastic with your dress.  I like how it's a still "bird-cagey"  in style, but the fabric seems more...etherial...if that makes sense?  Anyway, good luck!  
  • the white flower goes well with your dress (are those feather accents on your dress I see?), but the birdcage veil suits your dress best.  I like the first veil best cause it--again--matches the material of your dress.  Still, the french netting and pink hair clip are really beautiful, and would look great too!

  • I like either veil 1 or 2, with the white flower as well. seems to match your dress best. I like veil 2 better than 1 because it seems to stand out more for pictures.
  • I liked the first veil, but I think that you shoudl carry the feather theme from the dress up to the veil, and go with the second, white, hair peice.
