To veil or not to veil

I know a lot of brides are now opting not to wear a veil on their wedding day but I've decided I want to have one; better to be a blushing bride with!

Will you or did you wear a veil on your big day?

Once upon a time I wanted to wear my grandmother's wedding dress one day. Alas it didn't fit. But the veil will always fit. I will definitely be wearing hers one day! =) I think veils are beautiful!

I had a veil but that was an indoor wedding 13 years ago.

Beautiful photos! I'm not married and I don't know if I would wear a veil or not. It depends on a dress, a veil doesn't look good on every dress.

I wore a veil. I wasn't going to but my bridesmaid (who is a wedding videographer) told me that it looks much nicer with a veil on. I'm glad that I did, cause it looked lovely and really nice in the photos.

I took mine off for the reception cause it was full length and kept on getting in my way.

i wore a veil at my outdoor wedding. it was borrowed from my sister and did not cover my face, it was stunning and a bit traditional. go with your gut feeling.

i actually didn't wear a veil! i wanted to keep everything very simple, and my dress had silk rosettes on the bust so i decided not to have a veil. it would have been too much. looking back at the photos i am SO happy i didn't wear one. i think they are absolutely beautiful, and i always thought i'd wear one, but i ended up wearing a simple fabric flower in my hair which was perfect.

I never thought about it until I was getting my dress altered. Then I had a simple veil made. On the big day, it was sooo windy and the wind would blow the opposite direction that I was facing, finally my MOH had to TUCK the veil in the back of my dress for the rest of the ceremony. :/
Not that I'm religious, but I LOVE the look of a cathedral veil with lace all around...
