Ho To Incorporate Detailed Bridal Veils Into Your Look

By Leslie Ball


There are many different ways in which brides can bedazzle on their special day. For some, where the dress may not be overly embellished or fancy, they may choose other aspects of their overall look to add a little something special. This can be through use of accessories, like jewelery, or fancy footwear. Detailed bridal veils are a great attention grabber for the ceremony when the bride first enters, and there are so many styles to choose from.

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 wonderful detail that can really bring a veil to life. It is a good choice when the bride's dress does not have a lot of embellishment, particularly lace. Lace can be very intricate and works well by itself as an edging for a veil. Where the bride may be getting a custom gown, a custom veil to match the dress is a wonderful idea and the same lace can be used.

On a veil, lace can be further embellished through the use of beading and iridescent sequins. Strategically placed embellishment will add a sparkle to the veil and the bride's overall look. Heavier embellishment should either be placed at the top of a shorter veil, where it can be secured properly using pins, or at the bottom of the veil should it be touching or resting on the floor. That way the weight of the detail can be supported and it will keep the veil from twisting as the bride walks.

Crystals and rhinestones are another way to add some sparkle. Flat back crystal rhinestones can be added to the body of the veil in a scattered formation so that it catches the light from any angle. Crystals of different sizes are also a good idea when doing this.

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.

Pearls are a classic and elegant way to add detail to any bridal look. They can be sewn into lace detail, or used by themselves. Half dome pearls are great for sticking onto a veil's surface and, like flat back crystals, they can decorate the veil in any formation.

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.
