I loved all the lace detailing on my dress and really wanted to show it off. Simultaneously, I wanted to wear a veil because, well, when else will you ever get the chance to wear one? The veils I tried on in store were too stiff, too opaque, or had detailing that I felt distracted from the dress. This veil was perfectly flowy, soft, and sheer. The texture and the color (ivory) were both a perfect match to my dress! I ordered the 50" fingertip veil, which I did have my seamstress trim a little so it hit exactly the way I had envisioned it. Over all, it was a perfect, beautiful veil!
