Wedding Veil Styling Tips & Trends

GREAT LENGTHS

Create an ultra-glamorous look with a long, narrow veil. This style has become a top trend for destination or outdoor weddings because of the dramatic image created when the veil flows in the wind. Of course cathedral veils are also a natural choice for formal weddings, as that is where they got their start (and their name). Place the veil at the back of your hair to keep the focus on your face and your dress details. After the ceremony, you can easily remove the veil or replace it with a shorter style at your reception.

SIMPLE ELEGANCE

A sparkling yet subtle comb is the perfect finishing touch for almost any gown. Experiment to find the placement that fits best with your style and hairstyle. If you're going for a modern chic look with short or long hair, wear the accent on the side near your ear. For glamorous up-dos, almost any placement will do; side, back or top. Other simply chic options include a glittering headband or pretty hairpins.

FLOWER POWER

Hair flowers are as versatile as they are popular (as evidenced by the trend among Hollywood celebrities). A simple flower or two creates a fun and flirty wedding look. Combine flowers with a veil to evoke a more traditional feeling. Shorter veils are also an ideal choice for showing off back details. Perfect for outdoor weddings and formal indoor venues alike, this ensemble is comfortable enough to wear all day. And can always remove the veil at your reception for a completely new, more casual look.

STRIKING DETAILS

Add a touch of drama to any bridal gown with the light and airy fullness of a bubble veil. You'll be amazed at just how comfortable high fashion can be. For a truly stunning wedding day look, mix and match your headpiece embellishments with your gown details. For example, balance a detailed gown with a plain veil. Add romance to a simple gown with a lace-trimmed mantilla. And it goes without saying that coordinating accents like lace or beading will create a fabulous pulled-together look.
