How strict is the "no veil for second wedding" rule??

brespencer · June 2011

My fiance and I are planning a January wedding. This will be a second marriage for each of us. I did not wear a veil at my first wedding, and always regretted it. How strict is the "no veil for second wedding" rule???

I've never heard of a no veil for second wedding rule

And yes, in 3 days I *will* be wearing a veil for my second wedding... just not the blusher. I don't think that's appropriate.

The beauty about second weddings is that this time around we get to do it the way we want to... rules are a lot more lax and you can just do what makes you happy.

The thing with rules and weddings is, there are no actual rules, just standards of what has been done most in the past. If you want to wear a veil, wear a veil. Not to be a cheeseball, but those who matter, don't mind and those who mind don't matter (or at least their opinions don't).

What "no veil for second wedding" rule?? Never heard of one.

If you want to wear a veil for a second wedding, remember the scarlet A on the front of your gown :P

Seriously, that went out a million years ago. Wear what makes you happy and feel beautiful!

i went to a 2nd wedding back in nov and the bride wore a white poofy, princess dress and a long veil.

There's no "no veil" rule, just a "no blusher for second weddings" rule. Go for it.

Why can't you wear a blusher for a second wedding??

JamieLeigh88 · June 2011

I've never heard that rule before, but it kinda sounds right. BUT at the same time this is YOUR wedding no matter what! I know traditionally brides wear veils over their faces symbolizing "virginism" (is that even a word? LOL) but now brides wear veils as part of their headpiece for the ceremony and take it off for the reception! It's totally up to you. Whatever you feel like doing.

If you want to wear a veil, go for it. If you want to wear a blusher, go for it. It's not something that will hurt anyone, so if it makes you happy, then you should wear it.
