Veils: The long and short of ‘em!

No wedding dress is ever complete without a veil. Long or short, it is one thing that will complete a bridal outfit. It’s pretty much like a staple in every wedding.

Until recently, there has been a soaring popularity in shorter versions of the traditional veil. They are in the form of birdcage veils, and they look really chic.

Birdcage veils are perfect for tea-length or informal wedding dresses. They definitely work their charm with vintage or retro themed weddings. Remember that this veil has a more casual feel to it, and that its length is most suitable for shorter dresses.

As for the traditional long veils, these are timeless classics. They work best with wedding gowns, and by gowns we mean dresses that hit to the floor. Since long wedding veils are a dramatic look in itself, it is best worn with makeup that looks very natural.
