Totally check out Etsy! There are so many already-made designs that are really versatile and beautiful, so even if you don't have time for a custom design, you could purchase a pretty veil you'll love for your weddiing!
I used veilshop.com and had really good luck. I had a super simple veil, but they have some with a little bit of edging or bling as well if that's what you're looking for. I believe mine was right around $40. Good luck!
I went to a veil making class yesterday. If everyone knew how stinking easy it was to make a veil (birdcages are the exception), then no one would buy veils anymore.
Seriously, it is the easiest DIY project out there. You can get the pattern at a fabric store, but you really don't even need one. I could probably walk you through how to make one if I knew what you wanted. It's fun. I spent $4 on materials and I have a huge sense of accomplishment.
My classmate made a cathedral length mantilla in the class time (3 hours) and it looks as good as the pros. Total cost for materials $30.
The other classmate made a scalloped finger tip with a blusher. Total cost for materials $9.
Let me know if you need more detailed information!
I needed a veil quick and went the route of doctorgirl. We bought the supplies for like $4. My sister made my veil in like 2 hours. Maybe you could try to DIY your veil.
Wow, DIY veil sounds like a great idea! That would make it even more special. What a keepsake! I think that would be something you could even pass down in your family. Great idea, doctorgirl and mklove!
I heard to use Etsy but wrote a girl there, twice now and she doesn't write back! grr...I found a site on e-bay, girl was nice when she wrote- thorough etc but still over $100! not wanting to spend that..

I got my veil online from Occansey Designs--lots more options than Veil Shop, and similar prices. My chapel length veil, with ribbon trim, was $100. It arrived today and is beautiful. Not being at all crafty, I didn't want to make my own veil! (I saved $100 buying it online instead of from the bridal shop).

I'm getting married in a month (eek!). I ordered a veil off e-bay and I didnt' like it. The veil I tried on at my dress shop had a very fine edging of glitz. It was $300 so I decided to see if I could find something similar on e-bay. The veil I got from that site, which was only $20, has huge rhinestones on the edging, which was way too much bling.
Where have you found your veil. I don't want to spend a lot because I'm not wearing it for long. Has anyone worn the veils you can buy at craftstores? Any suggestions would be great!
