Do you watch "Say Yes to the Dress" ? Many times a bride to be has said she didn't feel like a bride until she put on the veil and got "jacked up".
The fabulous creative Carol
The PolkaDot Closet mentioned she had just found a collection of vintage bridal veils and I said "hey, why don't we do a post on them at the same time". She put out an invitation to join us on her blog and two other ladies are joining in. Lynn, another very creative friend

Second time around, or just a bride who loved blue? |

Love the tiny pink flowers |

This reminds me of Juliet ... |

A "new old stock" never worn, tag says "Altar Bound" |

This is the largest headpiece and has the longest train |

The prettiest full crown |

Just wire and pearls with a bit of trim, home made? |

So lovely in person. |

I did have a veil and I didn't keep it. I am so sorry now. It was a short one like my dress. That was the style in 1963. I did keep my dress though and it still looks brand new. It was only worn once. It is hard to pick my favorite veil but I do like the handmade pearl crown a lot. The one that was worn and then the matching unused one was amazing. This was a great post. My sisters in the antique business are always on the lookout for bridal veils to sell. They seem to be a collectible favorite.
Your hubby's new toy is giving me a fear for your safety. Be careful please. I do love the pink jacket and head gear. Smile.
Wishing you happy days my friend.
