Bridal Veils - What's Your Veil Vibe?

Wow-worthy veils for every bride


It's not just about the dress! Choosing your veil can be the final touch of a bridal ensemble that will create a wow moment all of its own



Your wedding day is (probably) the only day in your life that you'll wear a veil, so how do you go about choosing one that complements the rest of your bridal look? Whether you want your headwear to blend in with your dress or make a show-stopping statement, there are so many gorgeous pieces currently making waves in wedding world, ensuring you're head and shoulders above the rest...

NATURE'S CALLING
Be inspired by all things botanical with a veil decorated with leaves, florals or even bugs! Whether you go for a full coloured and embroidered design or a touch of leafy loveliness, it's a lovely way to bring a natural touch to your look, especially for an outdoor wedding.

FEATHER LIGHT
Bring some sophisticated fun to your ensemble, with a soft and unusual element to your veil. Particularly striking for winter weddings, the trend for feather or fluff trim on a veil or cape is reminiscent of 1950s' allure. We love them for elegant and manor house weddings, adding a touch of Hollywood glamour to a classic look.

SHOW YOUR LACE
Nothing says bridal like lace, and if you want to incorporate the ever-so-romantic material into your bridal wear, your veil is the perfect way. Delicate and beautiful, the most subtle of lace trims can soften an entire look, while a lace veil complements an intricate gown.

If there's ever a day when you're the star of the show, your wedding day is it. Take inspiration from all things celestial, and embrace a starry-eyed vision that will bring an otherworldly beauty to your bridal ensemble.

COLOURING IN
Bring some brightness to your bridal wear in a totally show-stopping way! Whether it's all-out bright, bold and sequin-fantastic, a sophisticated shade of cappuccino or a blue-ish hue, we're all for embracing colour, especially at festival or themed weddings.

SPARKLE AND SHINE
A hint of a shimmer, a twinkle catching the light, a glimmer of bejewelled beauty - we love a little touch of sparkle, and the veil is one of the sweetest places to put it. Whether you go for subtle or statement sparkle, you'll be sure to shine come W-day!

BYGONE BEAUTY
Take a past era as your muse and choose a veil that sets the tone for a vintage-inspired ensemble. Whether you draw on inspiration from the Roaring Twenties or the Swinging Sixties, it's a gorgeous way to celebrate your favourite fashion era, with a modern-day twist.

DELICATE AND DIVINE
There's something soft, gentle and flattering about a veil that's understated and simply beautiful. An ideal choice if you don't want to detract from a more detailed dress, or for a smaller, more intimate venue that would be drowned out by an elaborate cape or veil.
