Ho To Incorporate Detailed Bridal Veils Into Your Look

By Leslie Ball


You can choose from a variety of ways to add sparkle and dazzle to your wedding day. Perhaps you don't have a heavily beaded gown, or you don't plan on wearing any bracelet or necklace. In this case, choosing from detailed bridal veils may just be the thing for you. There are so many options you can choose from that you are sure to find something to complement your look.

Very detailed veils do not always have to be long, as one may think. There is a lot of grandeur in having something with exquisite detail that is a shorter length. However, some women may prefer the true look and feel of royalty that a floor-length or even longer veil would provide. It is necessary to remember that a longer veil will always require more coverage, and therefore it will be a great deal more expensive due to the amount of detail on it.

Lace is a form of embellishment that can really make a veil a piece of art. If your gown does not have any lace at all, and very little other embellishment, then you can go all out with a super intricate laced veil for impact. Lace makes a great edge on a veil. If you happen to be having your gown custom-created, no matter how fancy it is, you may want to ask to have the veil made to match the gown if there is any lace on it.

Lace can look even more bedazzling if beads and sequins are used. Iridescent sequins are a prime choice in bridal wear because they add sparkle without weighing down any part of the ensemble. You can opt to have more embellishment closer to the top of the veil where you head is and secure it with pins so it doesn't fall. Alternatively, with a much longer veil that drags on the floor, you might want to have greater embellishment there, so that it holds the veil down when you are walking.

Sparkle can be added using flat back crystals and rhinestones. These can be scattered all over the veil body randomly to ensure that the light will catch it no matter what angle. Brides should consider using various sizes of crystal for scattering.

Again, the crystals could be placed closer together and filter out from the top of the veil or they can be clustered closer to the edge, depending on the bride's preference. When deciding on where the majority of the embellishment should be, it's important to balance it with the bride's jewelry as well as any embellishment on her gown.

For a really classic elegance, turn to pearls. They can be sewn into the lace detail. Otherwise, they can be used just like crystals and scattered across the surface of your veil. Use half back pearls for something like this as they stick easily to the veil tulle.

Mixing pearls, crystals and other beads is the ultimate way to add maximum detail. Going all out on a veil is a must if the bride chooses not to wear any jewelry or if her dress is simple. However, there is nothing wrong with taking the look to the extreme by pairing a high end overly embellished gown with an exquisitely detailed veil and jewelry.
