Veil or No Veil?

BrightFirefly · December 2011

So - who here is rocking a veil for their wedding day - and who is rocking somethin' else - or just going bare?

) I'm either doing a flower or nothing.

well my plan was to do a bircage with fabric flowers but i feel like i dont want the veil in front of my face the whole time. But we're getting married out in a field (site of our future home) so i am afraid a full veil will be a huge pain... but i've always pictured myself with a veil so you posted this at the exact point when i was wondering the same thing.... if i cant decide it'll just be fabric flower

I'm doing a weil for the ceremony but, losing it for the reception. I'm also not wearing it over my face.

I want to do a hair clip too. Something with peacock feathers... haven't figured that out yet

I'm doing a veil but I am also not going to have it over my face. I also made a fabric flower haripiece that I will wear with it. I haven't decided yet whether I will lose the veil or keep it for my reception.

I am leaning toward this for the wedding.....

Haven't decided- either just my hair or a hair piece- preferably rhinestones

Veil and looking for an AFFORDABLE hair comb! Apparently those words don't ever go together lol *rolls eyes*

[QUOTE]I put undecided. Really I am decided but my budget thinks otherwise. The veil I want is $400, which is half the price of my dress! But its so pretty and I want it so bad. The store is willing to sell the sample for about $300, but thats still a lot, and we are looking at other stores and online, we might even try to make it. But I don't know if I will get it or not. I hope I do. Either way I will have something spakly in my hair, either a comb (if I have the veil) or possibly a tiara if I don't. I actually found a store the other week that had inexpenive combs and tiaras. I'll look there again once the veil issue is figured out.

Can you write down the model and brand, and then look on eBay and craigslist? You could try that. I ordered my veil with the dress and then found it on eBay for half of the price, it was too late to cancel the order though and I missed the deal.

I'm undecided.

I'd like something like this:

I'd also like to wear a flower, but I think the combination would be too much.

Dramaqueen, on Etsy there are lots of people who make custom veils, for much cheaper than 300$. Maybe you can find someone there who can work with you?

I am wearing a veil for the ceremony and either a flower or some hair clip or something not sure. Also not sure if I will keep the veil on for the reception or not very undecided about this!

avsfan33 · December 2011

I have a veil and flower hair piece. It's not going over my face.

piac2012 · December 2011

No veil, but tyring to figure out what I want to do with my hair and if I want to have a flower in it.

NIKKIANDTYE · December 2011

I'm wearing a veil for the wedding but its coming off for the reception

ginadog · December 2011

I always envisioned a flower hair clip with my hair down, but then I tried someone a and they did not lie nicely on my head and were heavy.

I never envisioned a birdcage veil, but tried one of those on as well and it looked pretty dang good!

We'll see what I end up with!

MandiNoel · December 2011

Well, I was very sure in the beginning that I didn't want a veil, and I even tried on a few in the first two shops I went to and hated them.

Then I found my dress and tried on a completely different style of veil that actually has embroidery that coordinates with the embroidery on my dress! I ended up going from now veil to two! A cathedral length with an elbow length over it (neither will cover my face) for the ceremony, and for my reception, I will just wear the elbow length.

But yeah, I ended up spending more on my veils than on my dress. I wouldn't have had space for them in my budget if I hadn't bought my dress half price. (And the veils still put me $200 over budget. Blah!)

bblouin · December 2011

I am wearing a rhinestone headband and veil. I also did not want the veil to go over my face but it meant so much to my fiance that I am doing it. The blusher par is detachable for the reception though

littlemoments324 · December 2011

I'm wearing a veil and taking off after pictures. I'll have the comb in my hair for the remainder..however, I'm not wearing it how it is in the picture. Still haven't decided it yet.

Nati05 · December 2011

Did you get your hair comb at the bridal shop littlemoments? Was it pricey?

michelle11988 · December 2011

I have a veil and a jeweled headband thing. I haven't decided how I want it all to look yet though.

Rebis58 · December 2011

I loooove veils... I found a beautiful veil at the bridal store that went down past my bum, and has small pearl coloured beads sewn along the bottom. My FMIL has offered to make one for me based on it, so I will get it for a tiny fraction of the coast if I had gotten it from the bridal store. I can't wait to see it! And I will be having a blusher (part of the veil over my face) during the ceremony.

bells24412 · December 2011

I am doing a veil and a tiara, well the lady at the bridal store called it a headpieace but it looks pretty much like a tiara.

LADY324 · December 2011

I am doing a veil for the ceremony but then I am going to take it off. It will not go over my face either. I have these flower clips for my hair that have a rhinestone in the center so they will be scattered throughout my updo.

cmhutchison22 · December 2011

I am having a flower in my hair. It goes much better with a beach wedding than a veil.
