    Okay so what is the difference between one teir and 2 teirs in your veil exactly? I made the mistake of buying my dress and veil at the same time. I didnt even look at any other veils because I thought that one looked good but it was $179!Well I ended up exchanging the dress for a different one and I'm not so sure it goes with the dress! I will post pics and tell me what you think! I really wanna wear a tiara but would that be too much with the veil? I didnt even know it was 2 tiers until I took it out to look at it again 2 weeks ago.

    here is the veil but this IS NOT the dress I bought!

    The veil is very pretty and goes well with the dress. As far as the tiara, you can wear it, too. Are you planning on wearing the veil for the recepetion or taking it off?

    it's your preference of course, but IMHO i think the two-tier just seems fluffy and fun. ;)

    it's v pretty and goes w/ your dress still. a 2 tier has more volume and i think one can act as a blusher (ie in front of your face before the ceremony / during the procession)

    it's really your choice.

    I've always preferred single tier, but there's no reason you can't wear double with the dress you ended up getting; it goes fine! Keep it if you like it. :)

    If you like your veil, wear it because I think it would go well with your new dress :-)

    I like the two-tier veil, personally. I'm partial to the blusher option. :)

    My sister wore a two tier veil with your exact dress. She had a tiara and her two tier veil was pinned below her curly updo.

    I think the two tiers would look nice with your dress.

    How are the two tiers connected at the top?  Is it basically one piece of fabric, gathered at the center?  Or is it two pieces of fabric, gathered sort of at one end?  If it's two pieces, you might just be able to (carefully) cut the 2nd tier off, if you don't want it-- my friend did that with hers, when she decided against wearing the blusher and wanted a less pouffy look.  I can't really tell from the photo what's going on with how it's connected, so am not quite sure if that would work.

    I love the current veil; I think it's universally flattering.

    it is two pieces of fabric so yeah I could prob try to cut it but Im afraid I may ruin it or something. Hm I'll just have to see how it looks with my hair I guess. I want to wear my hair half up and half down.

    I really love that veil with that dress! If you like tiara's then go for it. Maybe keep it sorta simple though.
