Standard Cut: Our standard veils are cut in a rounded shape and are also referred to as "Top Gathered". The top straight part of the veil, as shown in the drawing on the left, is gathered all the way and then attached to a comb. The veil edging goes all around the veil, up to sides of the face. (See pictures below) |

Circular Cut: Most of our 2-layer veils are available in a "Circular Cut" for a $5.00 additional charge. This type of two layer veil is also known as "Center Gathered". The veil is cut in a circular shape, folded, gathered in the middle and then attached to a comb. The sides of the veil fall in soft folds. The veil edging does not go up to the face. This type of veil is not suggested if you want to wear a "Blusher" (the veil you pull over your face). |
Cascade Cut Veils: Cascade veils are cut from a special pattern that creates a cascading side effect (gentle waves down the sides). They're made from 108" wide, soft Bridal Illusion material and are available in single layer styles only
108" wide veils are the standard veil fullness found in most Bridal Shops. Due to the wider veil material, 108" wide veils are fuller (have more "poof") than veils made from 72" wide or 54" wide material when gathered and sewn to a comb. Thus, less of your dress will be seen through a 108" wide veil. If you want more of your dress to show through the veil (or just want less veil fullness), then we suggest ordering either a 72" width veil or a 54" width veil. The less veil width, the less fullness or "poof" will be seen once the veil is gathered and sewn to a comb.

Due to the differences in computer monitors, room lighting, video cards and screen settings, the below sample veil colors will vary from computer to computer. If you're not sure of your dress color, we would suggest ordering our sample veil swatches for your in-person comparison of our veil colors before ordering from us.

We now offer "Sparkle Veils". What exactly is a sparkle veil?. The manufacturer takes a standard, high-quality bridal tulle and applies a glazing to the veil material which causes the fabric to sparkle. The glazing is what gives the veil a subtle sparkle. The real sparkle shows only through flash photography or bright sunlight. If you are in a reception location with lots of bright lights, the veil will have a slight sparkle to it. In normal, indoor lighting the sparkle is very subtle. But, when you exit your church or ceremony location in the bright sun you will be encircled by a soft, radiant glow of sparkle. Sparkle Veils are $15.00 extra.
** Scattered Accents **
The following veil accents are optional: Scattered Bugle Beads, 4mm Pearls and 4mm Rhinestones. These accents can be added to your veil individually or in combination. Note: Adding such accents to a veil will make the veil a custom order, and thus exchangeable for same style and color only. No Refunds
** Type of Comb **
Unless ordered with a headpiece that requires the veil to be attached, all our veils are sewn to your choice of either a 4" Satin Covered Plastic Comb (Free), or a 4" Silver Metal Comb ($5.00). A plastic comb works with any type of hair. A metal comb works best with normal to thick hair. The veil is sewn to the end of the comb making the comb invisible once placed into the hair.

** Measuring before ordering **
We suggest having someone measure you using a cloth measuring tape to determine the length of the veil you would like. Depending on the Headpiece you've chosen (and/or where the veil will be placed on your head), will determine if you measure from the middle or the back of your head. Also, we recommend that you allow 1 to 2 extra inches to allow for the gathering of the veil and the flow of the veil from the comb. If you have any questions about how to measure, please write or call.
If you don't find the veil length
that you're looking for, we can custom make a veil in any length you would like.

E-mail us for information and pricing.
** Blusher **
If you are wanting to wear a "Blusher" (the veiling that you pull over your face), you can use the first layer of our standard cut 2 layer veils as a blusher (just as long as it reaches your bust line). Before ordering your veil, measure yourself using a cloth measuring tape (from where the veil will be attached) down to the middle of your bust line. If the first layer of our 2 layer veils is a bit longer, this is okay. You just don't want the blusher to be too short. If you have any questions, feel free to E-mail us
