  Don't see why not, but it might depend on the veil and the style of your glasses. Go try them on and see what you think, that's the only way to really tell.

  Can you just wear contacts temporarily? I'm not sure how the veil would look with glasses. Maybe try them on together and take somes pictures of yourself. Things tend to look different in pictures sometimes so I would get a feel for how it will look. Bird cage veils aren't expensive, I think I got mine for like $20 on Etsy. So if you end up getting it and it doesn't work, not a huge loss.

  I can't wear contacts at all. Unless they start making contacts with built in sunglasses contacts are out of the question.

  I think you can wear both glasses and a birdcage veil.  Here are a couple brides who rocked it

  I'd definitely try on a birdcage veil. Head to a local bridal salon - big or small store, and ask if you can try one on. Take some pictures while you're there in different style veils, and then take a look at them later. If you can't bring anyone with you to try them on, show your friends/family to get opinions on what they think.

  I think the best thing to do would be to try some veils you like on. The most important thing on your wedding day is to be comfortable and look like yourself. That being said, if you never wear contacts, don't wear them on your wedding day.

  I totally think you can rock the birdcage veil with glasses. And I personally think the birdcage veil would look better than a traditional veil when worn with glasses.
