Type of Veil to go with a lace wedding dress!?

My dress is allover lace and sparkles a bit.It is a mermaid style. I have a sash similar to the one in the picture that is white ribbon, white flowers, and has a few pearls on it. I tried on a veil with lace along the edges, but I think it might be too much lace. Would a veil with beading or pearls clash? I'm leaning towards a simple satin edge veil. My wedding is outside in August at my fiance's farm, so I want an elbow or fingertip veil. 

Opinions needed please!

  • I think beading would look nice, but maybe not so much pearls. What about something like this: CLICKY. Just a little blingy but still mostly simple and would compliment your dress. 
  • I wore an all lace dress. I bought the veil that went with the dress. It was tulle with a few lace appliques along the bottom.

  • I had a lace dress as well and went with a French net birdcage with sparkles.

  • I had a lace, mermaid style with beading and went with a veil with a beaded edge
  • I also had a dress that was almost all lace. I wore a cathedral-length silk veil that had lace around the edges. The two were purchased separately but looked beautiful together. I think the same would look great with your dress in a chapel length!
  • My dress is lace with a little bling (picture is ivory but I ordered champagne ivory). My veil has a very thin line of the same lace and bling along the edge. I think it's just enough without taking away from the dress. image
  • @loubielove - Where did you find that veil?

    My dress is similar in the lace detail and I want a veil with a very slim lace edging. Everything I find seems to be so overpowering with lace...

  • I found it at the bridal shop in Orlando where I purchased my dress. I can call them tomorrow and ask them for the brand and style number. Mine is still on order so I don't have the information with me.
  • What a beautiful veil! I am now going to look for something similar

    That'd be awesome. No rush. Thanks!

  • The brand is Bel Aire Bridal and the style is STV132. I googled it and haven't had any luck so it is probably an older style. My bridal shop is still able to order it so they obviously still make it. That company makes some gorgeous veils that are very similar if you can't find that specific one. Good luck!!!

  • My dress was lace. I wore a plain two tier ballet length veil. My mother in law took some extra lace from my dress and sewed it onto the comb of the veil.
