Classic hair pins or combs?

Ladies,

With my wedding coming up in a few weeks, I've made a last-minute decision that I need something to wear in my hair, to attach to my veil, but it needs to be something that when I remove my veil, will still look nice. I have a very, very simple cathedral length veil that I am wearing over my half updo. I am not a tiara girl, at all, and just want something small, simple and elegant. I've googled everything I can think of, and all that comes back are tons of beaded, crystallized, over-accessorized tiaras!

Does anyone have any websites they know of (I've tried naugi.com already) where I can find an understated comb, or hair pins?

Thanks!

maybe you could put the veil on a comb and tuck it into your hair, and then have your flowers seperate already in your hair so that they aren't attached to your veil at all.

Try www.perfectdetails.com and www.headpieceheaven.com. The combs/pins below were my favorites before I decided to DIY. Also, maybe a single flower? Try www.hibiscusflorals.com for realistic ones! Hope to help!

I have to admit, I don't know how long it would take or how much it would cost, but I love the way the Regina B. stuff looks. Classy but funky!

I was looking on Etsy.com the other day just for fun by putting "wedding" in the search box and found some great items on there! this is one of my favorite sites I found that I'm really considering getting something from: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=22981

My dress is very simple with ruching and no beading or sparkles at all, so these pieces would work well for me to give a little added something. Their hairvines are also really cool since you could intertwine it in your hair to show as little or as much as you like.
