Crowning Glory...Veils, Headpieces, Tiaras, Oh My!


It's the moment of truth...the final piece that brings it all together and makes everyone gasp, sigh, or even cry...the veil.  Boasting a rich history in cultures across the world, the veil has been said to symbolize everything from warding off evil spirits to showing the status of the brides family...some lore, some logic, all lovely!

Here at Designing Bride, we love adding the veil to that perfect dress.  There are so many styles to choose from, and if we don't have your perfect veil; our expert, custom couture seamstresses can create your perfect headpiece!

Some brides choose a traditional veil, of varying lengths:


Here is an adorable short veil:


Or even polka dots!


And a trend that's been building with more and more bohemian style brides, is this lovely vintage lace veil, knotted:


Some choose no veil, but instead go with alternative headpieces, like this floral wreath:


Or this silk flower bouquet with bandeau birdcage piece:


A tiara for the princess in all of us:


A whimsical headband, for an ethereal look:


Or finally, jeweled and beaded lovely ornaments, which we can customize just for you!


We could go on for days...there are really no limits when it comes to your crowning glory!
