Long Wedding Veils
If you have long hair, you are in luck! There are numerous great looking ways in which to wear your hair for your wedding day. To help you narrow down the options, check out these gorgeous wedding hairstyles for long hair.
The key with long hair is to select a style which will keep your tresses under control all day long. You also want to take your veil and bridal hair jewelry into consideration when meeting with your stylist for a hair trial. By pulling back at least the front of your hair, you will give your veil a secure place to anchor so that it does not simply slide down the back of your head as you glide down the aisle. The more elaborate your hairdo, the more options you will have for bridal hair jewelry, as you will be able to fasten any type of comb, hairpin, or headband somewhere into the hairstyle and know that it will not move around.
One of the top trends in wedding hair right now is asymmetry. This is in keeping with the current obsession with asymmetrical wedding gowns, such as the glamorous one shoulder style. Just like the one shoulder gown, the prettiest off-center bridal hairstyles are chic and elegant. It needs to be polished enough to show that the hair is intentionally left-of-center; a messy 'do will just looked like you put it together in a hurry and misplaced your bun or twist!
Low twists are among the most fabulous asymmetrical wedding hairstyles for long hair this year. Have your hairstylist gather all of your hair near the nape of your neck. Let the pulled back part be smooth and tidy, which allows you to tease the twist part without getting that overall messy appearance. The gathered section of hair at the nape of the neck can either be arranged into a loose twisted bun or a more polished smooth spiral. Complete the effect with a glamorous feather headpiece or a cluster of Swarovski crystal hairpins.
A ponytail can serve as the basis for several other stylish hairdos for long hair. A high ponytail wrapped in a piece of your hair is a fetching style that can look surprisingly polished and elegant. Somehow, in the hands of a professional, a bridal ponytail will look nothing like the casual pony that you throw together at the gym. The key is backcombing the top of the hair before pulling it back and smoothing it out to get a little lift off of the crown of your head. Leave the pony as is, or have it worked into a chic chignon.
Soft curls can be created to make a romantic wedding hairstyles with long hair. Loosely pinned curls and waves are soft and feminine for an "undone" updo. Or pull back the front of your hair, and allow cascades of soft curls to flow down over your shoulders. One caution: this style can quickly turn into a frizzy mass on a humid day, so it is a bridal hairdo best reserved for indoor or cool weather weddings.
There are so many fantastic options for long wedding hair that you will be able to find the perfect one. The best bridal hairstyles complement the style of the gown, the texture of your hair, and the shape of your face. Work with your favorite hairstylist to design the hairdo which will make you feel absolutely beautiful and chic on your wedding day.
Short Wedding Veil
Ah the wedding veil... the ultimate accessory in the transformation from engaged girl to blushing bride. Though steeped in tradition as it is, unless required by your religion, a veil is strictly optional. Today wedding veils are more of a style statement than a symbolic gesture. Thus, the ideal veil depends largely on the style of your wedding gown and the overall look you want to create. Here are four easy steps to finding the right bridal veil to complement your wedding dress and bridal look.
Learn The Basics:
Tulle is the classic veil material, although lace, silk, and satin are also options. Veils can be embellished with embroidery, pearls, or sparkly stones. Lengths run the gamut from short blushers to elaborate cathedral-length jaw droppers.
Determine Your Overall Bridal Style:
Hair Apparent:
To showcase your hairstyle, choose a veil that fastens underneath your 'do or one you'll remove for the reception. Otherwise, you can opt for a veil that you'll wear throughout the event. In this case, your hair will simply support the veil.
What's Your Function:
How long you plan on wearing your veil can dictate how long it should be. Wearing it for the ceremony only? Go ahead and get one that rivals Princess Di's. But if you want to wear your veil until the party's over, you'll need a more functional approach - either a shorter veil or a multi-layered one with a top layer that can be worn on it's own during the reception. You can also ask your seamstress to create a bustle for a longer veil (that's right, your train and your veil can be bustled!).
Picture Perfect:
If you plan to remove your veil immediately after the ceremony, keep in mind that it won't appear in post-ceremony or first dance pictures. To ensure this classic accessory is adequately documented, many brides wait to remove the veil after the first dance.
Jazzing it Up:
Your veil should not compete with your dress, so if you're donning an elaborately embellished gown, keep your veil clean and simple. Also, any ornamentation on your veil should start below where your dress embellishments end.
A Question of Formality:
Your veil - like your gown - should remain consistent with the formality of your wedding. In other words, lose the cathedral-length veil if yours is a simple beachside ceremony.

Mantilla Wedding Veil
1. Remember the veil is part of the Bridal outfit, not something that is 'plonked' on your head as an after thought.
2. Try lots of different styles and lengths of veil in different fabrics to find the one that best compliments your outfit.
3. Don't have a heavily patterned veil with a very ornate dress as one will 'fight' with the other.
4. Your guests should say 'YOU look stunning', not your outfit looks stunning'.
5. Don't have a veil that cuts across detail at the back of the dress. Let the veil finish below the decoration. Silk tulle is sheer enough to allow decoration to show through.

7. Think of adding colour eg. embroidery, to the veil to link in with your bridesmaids and/or bouquet.
8. A veil can transform the simplest dress into a stunning Bridal outfit.
9. Don't forget to take your veil with you when you have your hair trial.

Vintage Wedding Veil
The bride's veil is an integral part of the entire wardrobe. It has been in existence since time immemorial which symbolizes the purity of women. However, looking back at the rich history of wedding veils, they symbolize and represent an array of cultures and beliefs which are as diverse as the countries all over the globe.
Modern veils have evolved but still carry their symbolism as part of the entire ensemble. You may notice that wedding veils of 2010 are reminiscent of some of the styles of the previous decades. Nevertheless, since fashion is ever-evolving, you will certainly find these hottest styles for this year very fashionable and classy.
* Birdcage wedding veils
One of wedding fashion's major comebacks is the birdcage veil. The industry has seen a huge comeback since last year because many brides have opted to use them not just as veil but also as a fashion statement during their walk down the aisle.
The diamond-shaped netting is a signature for birdcage veils but the ornaments that you can use are endless- from Swarovski crystals, to feathers and flowers, to pearls and small ribbons. And also, if you wish to have a vintage theme, using a birdcage veil can put some magic to your wardrobe.
* Colored wedding veils
Having colored veils seems to be a break from the traditional white that most brides opt to wear. You can choose from white veils with colored edges or a full-colored veil according to your motif. This is quite a daring move especially if you are traditional, but if you love to experiment with color, it's best to start with the veil that has very light shades of pink, yellow, green, blue and mocha.
* Mantilla wedding veil
This type can range from short to long [e.g. cathedral veil]. Traditionally mantilla veils are used by women during ceremonies like Sunday mass or when attending baptism. Today, the mantilla veil can be used for weddings to deviate from its traditional purpose.
* Lace wedding veils
For some women, lace is only best to use on the wedding gown. But since last year, lace veils have a following amongst the younger generation of brides simply because of its elegance and beauty. However, it's best to use lace veils that are simple and won't overpower the beauty of the wedding gown.
Scallop-edge lace for the wedding veil is also a good choice so as to accent the veil itself and to beautify the whole ensemble without overwhelming it.
* Swarovski wedding veils
The addition of Swarovski crystals on wedding veils is a good way to remove the dull and simple fabric that covers the head and face of the bride. A simple tulle or sheer veil can look magnificent when studded with sparkling Swarovski crystals. The crystals are also great to use on the edges of the veil for that added sparkle.
Whichever wedding veil style you choose will depend on the style of your gown. If you wish to experiment with a combination of styles, you may ask your local designer to make a veil that will suit your wedding gown perfectly.
