Five Helpful Tips for Selecting the Right Wedding Veil Length
When it comes to planning a wedding, big decisions have the pesky tendency of splitting into several smaller decisions. This is definitely the case when it comes to that most central of wedding accoutrements, the bridal gown. One of the final touches, the veil, can offer up some tricky small decisions of its own.
Before you make the final decision on the veil that will complete the dress of your dreams, take a few moments to learn about today’s popular styles as well as some classics. The follow tips and considerations will help you sort of the wide range of veil styles and lengths so that you’ll be completely happy with your final choice.
Classic or Modern
The question of classic or modern can also be construed as formal or informal. Although the choice of wearing a veil is itself a traditional notion, the style and length itself determines whether it will lend a modern or classic touch to your gown.
For truly formal weddings, the clear choice for veil length is the classic cathedral style veil, which extends fully to the grown in the back and is paired with a shorter blusher, which covers the face, in the front. This type of veil, however, must be combined with a cathedral style gown as well, which features a considerable train.
For formal and semi formal weddings where the bride opts for a dress without a train, a classic fingertip veil is the obvious choice. Veils of this length extend all the way to the tip of the bride’s fingers as her arms hang loosely at her sides. In general, the shorter the veil you choose, the more modern the overall style will be.
The Gown
Perhaps the most important factor to consider when choosing a veil is the wedding gown itself. A great and carefully chosen veil will work with the best features of the gown, emphasizing its assets to the fullest extent. The only case when length should disregard gown flourishes is the above situation of a formal wedding.
A properly fitted veil should never obscure any central detailing of the wedding dress and should be cut well above or below focal points. For example, the veil should never end where the bodice meets the skirt of the gown, since it will put too much emphasis on a dividing point, effectively cutting the bride in half visually.
An extremely noticeable factor to pay attention to when choosing the veil is color. The subtle differences between ivory, white and off-white gowns can stand out when contrasted closely with a veil.
Simple or Ornate
The veil can also echo central elements and flourishes of the gown to create a more unified look overall. Many veils, both traditional and modern, feature extra tailoring that can take many forms. Some flourishes to consider include beading, fine embroidery or lace work or the addition of pearls or crystals.
If your gown features bold edges, a well defined border or edge along the veil’s sides can tie the look together quite effectively. It’s important, however to avoid going overboard with detail work. When in doubt, a simple or plain bridal veil offers a classic, timeless effect on its own.
Height
Another factor you may not have considered in veil selection is the bride’s height. Shorter brides can create a lengthening effect by choose an elbow length veil while taller brides can de-emphasize height by opting for a fingertip length veil.
Shape and Tiers
Veils come in a variety of shapes, including models with rounded edges or thinner, rectangular veils. In general, thinner veils create a modern look and are best paired with a modern cut dress while rounded veils are more traditional.
Veils are generally available with either one or two tiers. Single tier veils are usually worn on the back of the head and do not include a blusher. They offer a modern look that can also emphasize a dramatic hairstyle. Two tier veils, on the other hand, are more traditional and do include a blusher. This type a veil is most common at formal ceremonies.
Of course, many brides, opting for a more modern or scaled back wedding ceremony, choose to forgo the veil all together. While brides can pull off a perfectly elegant look without one, a veil can add that certain special touch that pulls together your special gown. What’s more, a veil is a simple element that pays homage to marriage traditions going back for centuries while completing quintessential bridal look.
Even though it may seem like a simple decision, the veil you choose can go a long way to accenting your full wedding ensemble. With this simple tips and considerations in mind, take a few moments to find that perfect veil for your special day now!
