I have very kindly been gifted a cathedral length veil by my mother for my wedding day - the trouble is that I will be getting married in a register office and a cathedral length veil is a bit much. my bridesmaids have been suggesting attaching it to a comb so as to shorten it but I have been told in no uncertain terms that I am not allowed to damaged the veil as it is a family heirloom...... what to do??? do I get another veil which will cost me x pounds or wear it and look a right numpty lol ???
ps I am also having a vintage 1950's style wedding and I dont know how appropriate a veil that length would be xxxxxx
