Wedding dresses are always the star of the bridal look, but accessories often enhance it by adding that extra “wow” factor! There is perhaps no accessory more fitting than the bridal veil when it comes to wedding dresses. Originally worn to protect the bride from evil spirits, bridal veils are now a major fashion statement and come in a variety of lengths and styles. Continue reading to see some of our favorite wedding dresses and their matching bridal veils for the ultimate wedding fashion inspiration.
Does Your Bridal Veil Have to Match Your Wedding Dress?
Yes and no! If you prefer a cohesive look, a matching bridal veil is the way to go. For example, if you’re wearing a lace wedding dress, a veil with matching lace is always a stunning option. However, your veil can complement your bridal gown without matching exactly. You can use a veil to add detail to a simple gown, for example a pearl-embellished wedding veil pairs beautifully with a sleek satin gown. Think about adding matching pearl gloves to complete the look, too!
What Types of Veils Do You Suggest for Brides?
There are so many styles of bridal veils to choose from! From the vintage style birdcage veil to the long and dramatic cathedral veil, there is a length and look for every bride. We suggest brides follow their bridal vision by finding veils that pair with wedding dresses of their choice and elevate their personal style.
How to Choose Your Bridal Veil?
We recommend choosing a veil that matches or complements your wedding dress in embellishments and color, while still fitting with your venue and wedding vibe. A short veil is typically seen at courthouse or outdoor weddings. A long veil is stunning for a long walk down the aisle in a church or venue.
It’s also good to consider your wedding day hairstyle and the price range you want to stay within. Above all, choose a veil that makes you feel your most beautiful and bride-like!
