How long does a veil take to arrive?

Aleox, 20 May, 2011 at 11:03 Posted on Planning 0 5

I'm having a bit of a stress with my wedding dress and veil. I ordered my dress in September but didn't order my veil at the time as was unsure of whether I wanted one or not. Since then I've decided I do want one, but when I went to order one from my bridal shop, as my dress was no longer in stock there I couldn't order my veil as I wasn't sure if it'd match my dress in colour etc, so my shop advised me to just order my veil when my dress came in. That would be fine but with 6 weeks until my wedding my dress STILL hasn't arrived ☹️ and it'll probably be a few weeks until it comes in! I asked my dress shop and they said they said they could get it in last minute but I'm really unsure...I've looked at veils online and they're all saying they take 4-6 weeks to make and you have to order in advance... so I'm just really stressing by the time my dress comes in it'll be too late to order a veil! Does anyone know how long veil's usually take to arrive? Or can you buy them in shops/already made? All the ones I've seen need to have weeks to be made or look really cheap and tacky. I don't mind getting a second hand one but then I'd be worried the seller might not send it in time ☹️ I'm really unsure what to do... don't know whether to just buy a veil but then I risk it being the wrong colour as it was so long ago I ordered my dress now all I remember is that it was white but not diamond white but I can't really remember what shade ? Much thanks x

    I'm sure I remember just buying mine off the shelf. What colour is your dress?

    Cricket bride where did you buy your veil? was it from the shop? Purple pixie did you buy yours from a bridal shop? My dress is white but I remember it wasn't 'bright white' if that makes sense?!?

    Yep. I had my dress remade a couple of weeks before so needed to see exactly what colour would match it.
