Wedding Veils
Veils have evolved in purpose from ancient Greece, where they believed they were protecting a bride from evil spirits. In the Medieval times, it was used to show her purity and chastity. It was also used in arranged marriages to hide her identity and show her innocence until the wedding itself. Veils were also used to keep from risking the bad luck that could happen if the groom sees her before the wedding.
Now, it's used for a fashion accessory and is used by photographers to take dramatic photos.
And there are several ways you can use it after the wedding, whether to cover a baby’s crib or used to show the unity of the two families at the reception.
There are several types of veils from birdcage, which are short and extend just below the chin, to Cathedral length, which are 120-144". Picking the right one depends on the style of wedding, location and your dress.

“Shopping at Uptown Bride was an amazing experience. The interior is absolutely beautiful, so much that I was almost worried I wouldn’t find anything in my budget, but Jazzmin listened to what I wanted and found several dresses that I loved while still in budget. Even though I loved the first three dresses she brought, I never felt rushed and Jazzmin had me try several more dresses with different styles so I could be sure about my choice. When I had a hard time deciding at the end, Jazzmin was nothing but patient and helpful, asking thoughtful questions to help make the decision. I even got to “walk down the aisle” with a veil and bouquet to see if the dress felt right. The entire experience was so much fun, I would recommend every bride to shop here!!”
