Dare I attempt to cut my veil?

Personally I wouldn't I'd wait and see what they say. If they did it wrong they have to fix it.

hope you get the reply you need.

Have they followed your instructions and it's just not what you imagined or have they done something completely different? If it's their mistake I think you have every right to ask them to change it.

However - if you have problems I would maybe go to a dry cleaners (they usually have a seamstress etc) and see what they can do, failing that what have you got to lose, just cut it - if you aren't going to use it the way it is you really aren't risking much.

Shame they didn't get it right though x

Is it a net one? If it is and doesn't have any seams or decoration on the edges then it won't be as difficult as it would be if it was more complex. It maybe depends on how much money you paid for it, and how much you'd mind if it went wrong and there was no one else to blame! There are instructions for making your own veil around online which have cutting templates so it might be worth having a look for one of those if you do decide to give it a go.

This was a copy of one of the emails I sent to them. -

What I ideally want is the shape of it to be like the top layer of this veil -

I just like the way it falls, shorter by the neck and longest bit at the bottom. I'm happy for plain edge, but I wonder if 25" might be a bit too long? "
