Veil? Blusher?

I can't make up my mind. My FI has no preference which makes it even harder. How did you all decide on whether to wear a veil or not and/or blusher?

    Think about the location of your ceremony.  I decided to skip it because we are getting married on the beach. There is typically a breeze on the beach, so rather than it get tossed around in my face the entire ceremony I just passed on it all.

    Yes on the veil for me (it really just makes my dress look so much more elegant and I think is really classic).  But no on the blusher.  I think it is a little old fashioned and I wouldn't feel totally comfortable with it

    I just always wanted a veil and I think it looks gorgeous with my dress. I love the idea of a blusher but I just don't want my face covered...it's going to be hot enough as it is lol.

    I'm having the same dilemma. The bridal salon gave me a free veil but its very blah and I wasn't sure about wearing one to begin with. My friend offered to lend me hers, which is beautiful, but I'm still undecided! My dress has a keyhole back so I really don't want anything covering it at all.

    I never wanted a blusher and I was unsure on a veil. But when I chose the dress the out the veil on me, and I loved it. I have put my own in plain clothes and He has said it makes his heart race. I can't wait until he sees the entire ensemble.

    I based the decision off of my dress and wedding type. I'm having a formal, traditional church wedding - so a veil suits that theme. It's hard to describe how I picked a veil to my dress, but my dress couldn't handle a cathedral length veil. So I went with the simplest finger tip length veil.

    I'm not wearing a veil. Instead, I bought a flower for my hair that matches my dress. I'm having an outdoor garden wedding, and I will be wearing my hair down in long curls. I did try on a veil when I bought my dress, but it felt like too much.
