Tips for wearing a Veil
· Keep diamantes and other fine details on your veil to a minimum.
They may show up in your photos like black dots
· Complement a heavily beaded gown with a plan sheer tulle veil
· Don’t go for heavy detail in your dress and veil
· Don’t wear a long and multi-layered veil if you’re petite. The
veil will overpower you and your gown. Try to keep it in proportion.
· Your veil doesn’t have to be exactly the same colour as your
dress, just don’t mix start white with ivory colours
Types of Veils
Blusher
The short part of the veil that is pulled down over the face until
it is lifted back over the head during the ceremony.
Ballet
A veil length that’s falls somewhere around your ankles
Chapel
A formal veil that extends on the floor. Complements a formal style
gown with a train
Cathedral
The cathedral train is the most formal veil style. May have multiple
layers. Most appropriately worn with a cathedral train in a very
formal setting
Elbow
The elbow length veil is most appropriate for an informal setting.
It finishes at or near the elbow
Fingertip
A long veil that reaches the fingertips. Single or double layered
Flyaway
A multi-layered veil that just brushes the shoulders. Appropriate
for an anakle length gown. Suits more informal styles.

Thank you Jan,
our ceremony was just as we wanted it to be and contributed
greatly to our fantastic wedding day Service prior to
ceremony was prompt and thorough, providing us with lots of
options to consider, and were extremely useful…. Jan
couldn’t be more professional and extremely well presented
(loved your pants, shoes and the colour of your top!) We
will definitely, recommend Jan. She understood what kind of
ceremony we wanted and designed it to suit us. Best wishes.
Bob and Clare
