I just think that there is something dreamy about a bride in a cathedral raw veil. Esp with detailed dresses, I think that is makes a great backdrop and pops the whole look.
@tksjewelry: ITA.
I think the mantilla veil is a powerful veil and calls for a simpler gown. Yours is so beautiful you dont want to take away from all the beautiful elements or most of all you!
Have you thought about going with something elbow/hip length? I think it could look really elegant with this dress and really let the bottom stand out on its own.
I would think that the mantilla would take away from your dress, especially all the magnificent detail. The cathedral veil would compliment your dress while making some fun shots for photos!
Thank you! What's even better is a raw-edge veil is much cheaper than a mantilla;)
What a gorgeous dress, looks stunning on you - I'm so excited about my raw edge veil, you will love it too - it's so classic yet lets your dress shine! (mine is my "something borrowed" from a close friend assuming it matches my dress when it arrives)
I'd go for a chapel-length mantilla rather than either of those choices.
I would go with a lace trim cathedral veil. My dress looks very similar to yours.

This is my dress:
Which veil should I get? I'll have to order it without trying it on (as it's from Etsy). I'm stuck between a fingertip mantilla and a cathedral raw-edge.
