XP: Help choosing trim for veil

JaniV123 · January 2015

Thanks to lolo for the advice I just want to have as many opinions as possible:

I am designing my veil/mantilla through an etsy shop from spain.

She gave me these trim options:

This is the detail on my dress:

Which trim do you think goes best? I am between the first one on the left and the bottom one. I am horrible at making these kind of desicions. Thank you so much for your help!

I like the first and third options as well.

I think whatever you end up choosing will be beautiful though.

I was going to vote top right!

I like the bottom one. It's the least busy and I think it compliments the detail of your dress well.

Love the bottom one. Can you send me the name of the seller on etsy, please?

I like the bottom one!

The bottom one!!!! The bottom trim is so elegant and stately without looking over the top. Gorgeous! It reminds me of Italian lace I saw in the shops in Venice.

I love the bottom lace, but the way it comes up so high concerns me. Definitely imagine that on your veil and what it would look like. Skinny, reaching up into the tulle.

I actually most like the second one. I think it looks off because it is not cut "centered" but I think it will look the most beautiful when it is all continuous along your veil edge.

The first is also pretty but I feel it may be too thick along the edge.

I personally like the first one on the left top the most, but feel like the bottom one matches the detail on your dress better.

However, it's not like any of them would be clashing with the detail on your dress and no one except you is likely going to be paying such close attention to it as to think about whether it "matches" (they're going to remember the overall impression, not the specific detailing), so go with whatever one you like best/makes you happiest.

I'm the only one who likes the top right lol

I think the ivory on ivory ones are lovely, but given that your gown has silver detailing, I'd go with the one on the top left so it will match.

Not true! I also said I liked the second choice best!
