  I'm wondering if a veil might look out of place without a wedding dress, do you think? I should think you could carry a bouquet or any number of different items that brides carry.

  [QUOTE] Hi guys, My Fiance and I have been engaged fro 6 years and quickly decided to have our Wedding, at home, on Dec. 24th 2012. We started planning about 2 weeks ago. Just a regular non-traditional ceremony.  Should I have a boquet and should I have a vail even tho I'm not wearing a wedding dress? Suzie

You could go with a small bird cage veil if it fits your style. A simple fingertip length veil might also be pretty.</div><div>

  Exactly.  If you get married in it, it is your wedding dress whether or not it is frothy lacy white meringue or not.   If you want a veil, wear a veil.  I wore one and hated that damn thing.  I could not get it off my head fast enough.    
  
  The benefit of carrying a bouquet is that you have something to do with your hands.  I am one for fidgeting and having the bouquet had me keep my hands occupied so that I wasn't fidgeting quite so much.    I have been several weddings where the bouquet was a single flower tied with a bow.  If you pick a strong stemmed flower (rose, gerbera, calla lily) this looks very elegant for little outlay.
