To veil or to not veil? That is the question many brides-to-be are asking. The veil dates back to ancient tradition where a bride wore one to protect herself from evil spirits. The veil became widely popular in 19th century when Queen Victoria donned a white gown and veil. Today, brides wear a veil for tradition, to enhance their bridal look and to keep the groom in anticipation for a little while longer!
Veils come in many different types, from the Cathedral to Fingertip. When making your choice, consider the design of your gown and wedding location. Remember, a veil is meant to be the cherry on your dream wedding look, so make sure that it compliments your gown and doesn’t hide it. Modern Wedding loves the tradition and look of a veil, so to help inspire your decision, we’ve collected our favourite jaw-dropping veils that enhance a big-day look!
