We offer a range of popular styles of wedding veils to choose from, each offering a unique aesthetic to complement a bride’s gown and overall look.
The most common styles include the tulle cathedral veils, which are longer and ideal for grand entrances, as well as two-tiered veils that add volume, dimension and tradition.
Brides can mix and match lengths, lace, and embellishments to find the perfect veil that embodies their personal style and enhances their bridal look.
Determining the appropriate length for your wedding veil depends on several factors, including your wedding dress style, venue, and personal preference.
Generally, veils come in various lengths, such as fingertip, chapel, and cathedral, each offering a unique look that can enhance your bridal ensemble. To choose the right length, consider the silhouette of your dress and how the veil will complement it; for instance, a shorter veil may work better with a more modern, streamlined gown, while a longer one may suit a traditional ball gown.
Additionally, think about your wedding setting—outdoor ceremonies may call for shorter veils to avoid entanglement, while a grand indoor venue can support a dramatic, longer veil. Ultimately, your comfort and the overall aesthetic vision for your wedding should guide your decision.
Wedding veils are commonly made from a variety of materials, each offering a distinct look and feel. Tulle is one of the most popular choices due to its lightweight and sheer properties, allowing for an ethereal appearance while still providing coverage.
Our veils are crafted from high-quality nylon and polyester tulle, which are both delicate and lightweight fabrics. Our English Net tulle is a soft and flexible netting fabric that feels more luxurious to the touch, drapes beautifully, and is much sheerer than traditional tulle.
Attaching a wedding veil to your hairstyle on your big day can be done with a few simple steps to ensure it looks perfect throughout the ceremony and reception. First, choose a veil style that complements your hairstyle; for instance, a blusher veil pairs beautifully with an updo.

You will receive a “How to Care for my Veil” when you purchase your veil.
The best way to care for and store your wedding veil after you receive it is to keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration. First, gently hang the veil on a padded hanger or lay it flat in a breathable, acid-free box lined with tissue paper to avoid creasing.Â
Avoid ironing your veil, as the tulle is made of 100% nylon and can burn easily. Ironing may lead to permanent damage. Instead, you can safely remove wrinkles by using steam from an iron or a steamer.
Choosing between a veil with embellishments or a simple design ultimately depends on your personal style and the overall theme of your wedding.
An embellished veil can add a touch of glamour and flair, complementing a more intricate gown and enhancing your bridal look with unique details such as lace, beading, or embroidery.
On the other hand, a simple veil offers a classic elegance that can beautifully accentuate a minimalist dress and create a timeless appearance. Consider factors such as your dress’s design, the formality of your wedding, and your individual taste when making your decision. Ultimately, the right choice is the one that makes you feel confident and beautiful on your special day.
Wedding dresses are available in various shades of “Bridal Whites.” This can make it challenging to choose the right veil color. Generally, an Ivory Veil will complement most Bridal White Gowns. However, if your wedding gown is a diamond white or bright white, we recommend choosing an Ivory Wedding Veil. If you are still uncertain, consider ordering a tulle sample to match the color of your dress before making a purchase.
A blusher veil is a type of wedding veil that is typically worn by brides, often positioned over the face during the wedding ceremony. It is usually made from lightweight fabric, such as tulle and can come in various lengths, ranging from shoulder-length to fingertip length.
The blusher veil adds an element of tradition and elegance to bridal attire, symbolizing modesty and grace. Traditionally, it is lifted by the groom during the ceremony as a gesture that signifies the start of their new life together. Its delicate appearance complements the overall bridal look, enhancing both beauty and emotional significance throughout the wedding day.
