It is customary for the father of the bride or the groom himself to flip it back, revealing the bride’s lovely face. Most brides choose to remove the blusher for the reception. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>Short veil:<\/span><\/strong> Lightweight and comfortable, the shorter veil is a fun option that adds a dash of whimsy to any modern gown, whether a tea-length or long sheath style. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>Elbow length veil:<\/span><\/strong> Endlessly versatile and easy to wear, elbow-length veils are worn with the vast majority of gowns. Elegant and simply dramatic, the elbow-length veil puts a modern twist on the timeless tradition. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>Fingertip veil:<\/span><\/strong> A very popular length, this style extends to the fingertips to create an elongated silhouette. The glamorous style is suitable for nearly any setting. The sheer effect coordinates easily with most gowns, from simple and unadorned to elaborate and ornate creations. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Chapel\/Cathedral veil:<\/span><\/strong> The most dramatic and popular veil, the Cathedral length cascades to the floor in true fairytale fashion.

\nFrom oval to square, veils take on a shape all their own. For example, the exceptionally romantic, flowing mantilla, which consists of lace or lace-trimmed tulle, has a circular shape. Blushers are often square, while short or elbow length veils are typically oval. Fingertip veils are shaped like a teardrop or cape. Try each look to see which looks best with your face shape and gown style. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
\nVeils can be adorned with Swarovski crystals, pearls, beading or lace. Many of the veils in our collection are available exclusively at David’s Bridal and offer embellishments that complement specific gowns or make any gown look even more stunning. <\/span><\/p>\n
\nThe edging, or trim, of a veil can add an interesting design element. Some veils have a simple raw edge or sleek piping for a contemporary look. Others boast elegant beading, classic satin edging, romantic ribbon accents or lace details. <\/span><\/p>\n
\nVeils have always come in various shades of white and ivory to blend perfectly with individual bridal gowns, but now you also have the option of colored edging or beading detail. David’s Bridal offers exclusive veils trimmed in beautiful hues that coordinate with the latest color-accented bridal dresses. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
