Headpieces and veils complement your dress and add another dimension of style to your wedding day. Below is a look at some current "head fashion". Swarovski Crystal Veil with Tiara

 

The Headpiece:

  • Wreath. Typically a circle of flowers or beading, it encircles the head.
  • Barrette or comb. This is typically secured into the back of an up-do.
  • Rings. These headpieces are in the shape of a ring and the hair (up-do) is brought up inside the ring and then styled. See photo above.
  • Tiara. Think "princess". It is a jeweled decoration that sits like a crown.
  • Headband. It is secured behind your ears and rests at the top of your head.
  • Hat. Decorated elegantly, it can be in any number of shapes and sizes.
The Veil:
  • Flyaway. A short veil that ends at the shoulder.
  • Fingertip. Extends just below the waist, brushing your fingertips.
  • Sweep. Ends at the floor.
  • Chapel. Measures 9 feet long and trails along the ground.
  • Cathedral. Measures 12 feet long and has a significant train.
