The veil dilemma

Like many brides (especially David's Bridal brides) I got caught up in the moment of purchasing my dress and bought quite a few accessories along with it. The one that concerns me? The veil. Now don't get me wrong. I have a really pretty veil. Go see it! The beading on it matches the beading on my gown exactly.

But sometimes I wonder if a longer veil wouldn't be nicer. I love the look of cathedral/chapel length veils. They have this romantic, bridal feel to them. The one layer veils are so pretty, but I'd miss the blusher. That's definitely something that I want. Then I discovered that on Ebay, you can get those veils for less than $20! ValuVeil got recommendations all over the knot. This one and this one particularly strike my fancy. But I don't know... I don't want to buy a veil (especially since I have one!) and not like it.

To see a picture of me in my gown, go here. Now what do you think... long veil, 2 layers, long veil, 1 layer, or the one I've got?

*Sorry about the lack of photos, I don't want the wrong people (or person) to accidentally see this!

  1. I think the veil you have now is really nice! Don't change it!

  2. I really like the one that you already picked out. I think that with the Cathedral length veils, you'd have to take it off for the reception anyways. Stick with the one you already bought!
