I'm having trouble finding the right veil online and its kind of something that I would have a hard time ordering without seeing it in person first.
I even looked into making my own, but the process seems a bit cumbersome and probably just easier to buy one!
Did you order your veil online, purchase from a bridal store, or custom make your own?
I'd love to hear from you. Email questions, comments, or photos to blogzillabride@gmail.com

I was considering buying one online but I wasn't sure I could pick a suitable one. I'm just going to buy one from the salon when I do my first fitting. It's probably going to be more expensive but at least I'd know for sure the veil works with the dress.
i bought mine online through etsy and could not be happier! http://www.etsy.com/shop/abusymother?section_id=6491885 her prices are pretty reasonable too (i got a cathedral for less than $30). hope you find one!
I recommend you go to Davids Bridal or etsy because the Veils I saw at the boutiques I went were insanely priced!
I made my own birdcage veil, and it was really easy! Don't be afraid to DIY.
i bought mine at david's bridal at one of my fittings. it worked well because i already had the dress on and could tell what matched and what didn't!
I had to buy mine at the bridal store! I really recommend trying them on first! A lot of the ones you order online are not able to be returned. I like the first one! :)
I am buying mine online through an etsy shop. Actually the same vendor that The Vintage Modern Bride bought hers from. I haven't had her make it yet, but she is doing some custom stuff for me on it and she quoted me $60. Which is way cheaper than the salon prices. I think it is really up to you though. I tried some on at the place where I bought my dress, but I just couldn't justify paying almost $200 for a small piece of fabric and a metal hair comb. I hope that you find one soon.
I would say Etsy is the place to go. You can send a designer picture of your dress and what you already like to get one custom made. Of course, I would prefer to see you DIY it, but ya know, that's just me.
Yea I would think picking a veil online would be difficult. I was very lucky- my piano student's mother gave me her veil that she used 10 years ago. But it was very plain and beautiful and worked perfectly!
I thought you were going to borrow the beermann/parks veil??? :(
Looks like you're going for a drop veil tacked to the back of a bun or chignon. Those are easy to find on etsy. But I am a believer in trying on the veil with your dress before you buy it . . .
I ordered mine at the bridal shop and tried it on with my dress during the fitting. My veil was finger tip length, have you looked into those? They seem to be a little less poufy then the shoulder length ones. Good luck sweety.
