    I have 2 questions!

    First, I purchased my 2nd (and final, lol) dress a about 2 months ago and now I'm looking into what sort of veil I like. I saw a picture somewhere of a satin dress with a cathedral length veil. I feel like since my dress is so plain (in a good way) I would like a longer veil to dress it up. What do you think? What kind of veil would look best? Feel free to show pictures :) My dress is ivory, even if you can't tell from the pictures. Also, the last picture is the veil I have now, but I really didn't put as much thought into the veil as I should have.

    Secondly, will my pale/ice blue chiffon BM dresses look alright with my dress?

    Thanks!

    Here's my lovely :D

    Yes! I think veils that are longer than a short-ish length train are beautiful! I'm planning on doing that as well!

    YES cathedral! I love how dramatic they look. I am wearing one and am so excited...Jamie Lynn Sigler :)

    And I think pale blue chiffon BM dresses will look great with your dress!

    Do you cathedral-length veil girls have any suggestions for where to shop? All I know is that I want one, not what companies are good! Or is there an online place?

    I would try veilshop.com. Type in "cathedral" in the search box. Very reasonable...I will probably order mine from them. My wedding planner recommended it (she ordered a cathedral veil from their site for her own wedding).

    You can definitely wear a cathedral length veil with your dress!  I'm wearing one, and my dress is a similar shape.
