Side tiara and veil?

Random Name, 15 August, 2011 at 09:12 Posted on Planning 0 21

Morning

Did anyone have/ is having a side tiara and a veil?

I want to wear a veil at the top of my head and also have a side tiara. Do you think this would work?

most of the pictures I've seen are either with "normal" tiaras and veils or side tiaras with the veil at the back of the head. I.e under a bun etc.

I guess as a last result I can wear the veil for the church and tiara for evening but love my tiara and want to wear it all day.

thanks in advance

    I went to a wedding on friday and the bride had a side tiara with a cathedral length veil - it looked lovely! I'll see if I can find any pictures on bookface!

    Hi LMR, I am having a side tiara and shoulder length veil. I tried it in the salon when I had my hair trail and it worked!

    Unfortunately, I didn't think to take photos of it all together and only have a pic of my hair after I took the veil and tiara out.

    My veil is worn on top of the head, just above the crown.

    PS would recommend trying a few styles yourself at home to see it works and which hairstyles work well... this is what I did before I went to the salon.

    I decided on a half up half down do.

    I'm having a side tiara, but as someone else said my veil will start a little lower back.

    The photo Twists posted with the veil at the top looks beautiful - I think it would work absolutely fine!

    Think am going to go with this hair style. Just tried it very roughly with my tiara and headscarf.

    Thanks ladies. I found it this morning and fell in love with it. My hair is long enough where I can do it nicely without the need for extensions

    If anyone has an iphone there is an app called "The Knot Wedding hair 411" Its free and has a few hairstyles on there. Would def recommend

    LMR side tiaras and veils definitely work just as well as traditional tiaras do. I had my first hair trial about 2 months beforehand and then a second one about a month before the wedding. I had to leave it as long as possible as I was growing my hair.

    this is another hitcher

    Anniepie just incase it helps I've got the same orchid design for £75 and hitchers get a discount.

    Absolutely agree! I wouldn't consider buying one without a picture of it on someone's head, you just can't get a proper idea of size/proportions without.
