Tip of the week: What to know before buying your veil

There are many things to decide upon when purchasing a veil: how much gathering do you want, what shape do you like, blusher or no blusher, what is best for your setting, and of course how long it should be. The fist step is to try on a bunch of samples with your dress to give you a general idea of what looks best with the shape of your face and the style of your gown. Some salons will require a separate appointment for this, so ask before stopping in.

Once you’ve found the right one, the veil should be custom ordered for you to make sure all the proportions are correct. You will need to know where you are going to place the veil on your head, as this will make a difference in the length of the veil. Measurements will be taken so that it fits you and your dress perfectly.

It is also important that you take into account the length of the train, as a long veil should extend 6” to 12” past the hem. If you are purchasing your veil at a store that is different than where you bought your dress, you should have this measurement with you so they know how long to make the veil.

It’s not necessary to select the veil when you purchase your dress. A veil usually takes about six weeks to order, so many of my clients wait until the first fitting to decide. If you think you might need to shop around a bit, then it’s a good idea to get started two and a half to three months before your wedding.

Let me know if you have any questions!!!

Best,

Julie

Julie,
Are you married? Just wondering. I have been married for 2 years and I am still obsessed with weddings and all of the details I would alter if I could do it all over again.
Thanks!
