Disappointed - Can you help me find a veil?

charlie_rabbit01, 22 July, 2015 at 09:33 Posted on Planning 0 5

Hi all

So I've been let down by a family member who offered (not asked) to pay for half my wedding dress, stupidly I took up this offer even though I should have known they wouldn't come through.

I've now paid for the dress myself £900 and luckily it only needed minor alterations (less than £50).

The problem is I cannot afford my veil, I just cannot justify the £180 for it, it was going to be a push without paying for the dress.

Can you help me find a veil? I've looked on preloved so far, but my brains not working at the moment and not sure where else to look.

It must be 72" (fingertip) length, 2 tiers and so it can be worn on top of my hair not underneath (if that makes sense).

I have a couple of designs in mind either with lace applique scalloped edge or scalloped edge with drop crystals.

    Sorry to hear you've been let down. Have you checked on eBay? You should be able to get a 2nd hand one on there for a reasonable price

    Have a look at the wedding veil shop online. You can design your own. I ordered something very similar to what your describing and paid about £50. The quality is amazing and it looks beautiful :-)

    Another vote for http://www.theweddingveilshop.co.uk/ ?
    I used their custom quote tool and paid £70 for my veil, it's exactly what I wanted and really good quality
