Help! I need a veil...

Does anyone know of any good shops (besides online, I'll take online suggestions too though!) that sell cheaper veils? I am looking for a long, floor-length veil and they are just sooo expensive!

    i got mine off of ebay - the seller was venus veils. the veil was only $14 for a fingertip length with crystal on it and its pretty good quality (obviously not the best but im going to wear it for like 2 hours so i didnt care)

    I got mine from at Etsy seller that did a custom waltz length veil for me.  I think it cost me around $30.  This is her store... http://www.etsy.com/shop/abusymother

    My one recommendation with her though is that she makes every veil by hand and it takes time.  She gave me a time estimate of 2 weeks I believe it it was really more like a month.  So, as long as you have enough time, she's worth it but understand that it may be a little while before you get it.  I sent her a message and gave her a clear idea about exactly what I wanted and she delivered just that.  I saved a ton of money by using her too.

    FYI, she has cathedral length veils for sale for $20.

    i am in the same boat as you. something i am considering...when I was at Sukrans bridal she told me that she recreates veils if you take a pic of them she can make from scratch.
    she said she gets all the french lace from nyc and does a great job, I saw some of hers and they seemed really nice

    i am hesitant though to get one made, for the exact reason of how long it will take and being nervous on the finished product came out...

    I'm planning on using http://www.occanseydesigns.com/
    I've heard great things about them and they will send you a swatch of the material so you can make sure you get what you want. Always a plus!!

    Good luck
