Is there such a thing as too many flowers?

    Ok ladies...here's my question: If I'm wearing a sash on my dress with a large organza flower on it, should I just stick to a plain birdcage veil or should I add a hair flower to the look too? Is that too many flowers?

    Also, any suggestions where I can find a birdcage veil that's plain and not super poofy? I've been seeing a lot of really "tall" birdcage veils lately.

    Depends on the size of the flowers and the look of your dress, I suppose. :) Are you wearing a dress with plain fabric or is it lace/embellished?

    Let's see if this works. The veil is just a prototype but you get the idea. Here's a link to the dress: http://www.davidsbridal.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplayView?storeId=10052&catalogId=10051&categoryId=-49995498&currentIdx=55&subCategory=-49999486|-49995498&catentryId=6110586&sort=

    What do ya'll think?

    Ok I can't get them to upload so hopefully these links work.

    Here's the veil: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_5Pb3K5JhyVU/SvJAcNmQuEI/AAAAAAAAAf0/nMqg-F8VTng/s1600-h/100_0479.JPG

    And here's the sash: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_5Pb3K5JhyVU/SwRnjDPIrkI/AAAAAAAAAgc/16SdTi0G_A8/s1600/100_0490.JPG

    I would say the flower is probably about 6 inches across. I don't have a pic of everything together. Sorry.

    What do ya'll think?

    I can't really picture it!  I guess if at least one of them is kind of understated, they could look good together

    I think if you position the flower on your hair so it is more towards the back of your head it will look pretty good! That way you won't have too many flowers in one "direction"
