MemberThat’s a very pretty dress! I have a dress with a similar silhouette/feel to it and I’m thinking a 2-tier fingertip length veil (cut edge).
Member@prettyflowers – thanks! i am happy to hear your suggestion since FI’s cousin lent me her veil and that’s exactly what it is… i was just worried it might not look right and i’d just be wearing it because it was free… lol
MemberIm a huge fan of cathedral – i feel that other lenghts, especially fingertip, fall at an akward length and bring too much attention to the wrong things – the focus should be on the dress (well, on you first, but you get the point) and i feel that a cathedral adds to the dress rather than detracting from it.
MemberI tried every length and ended up with cathedral as it was the least distracting and didn’t hit me in an odd place. I also got a birdcage to change into for the reception. Your dress is elegant and I think most veil lengths will look good- just get whatever you like best and feel good wearing.
Memberi think fingertip would be pretty. especially for a small wedding, cathedral might be a little too much.
MemberI think for a slimmer dress sillhouette like that, a one tier cathedral veil would look lovely. Beautiful dress, btw! 🙂
Memberthanks for all your comments! i guess what i need to do is go try on a bunch of different types.
MemberFor photo purposes I LOVE cathedral veils. I’m going with a shorter bubble veil though… it just matches my dress better.
MemberWhat a beautiful dress! I think you could go a lot of different ways with a veil, depending on what you feel like. How about waltz length? That way you wouldn’t trip over a cathedral length veil, though I agree with the others that it would be very pretty.
Member@cheerful – what is waltz length? i don’t know very much at this point… 🙂
MemberI’d go for a 1 tier, cut edge cathedral veil too. I’m doing one in a drop style. I feel like the drop style is so much flatter and less poof that other styles and it really gives you a veil without the hassle of a huge poofy veil.
