Fabrics for Wedding Veils
|

Illusion is depicted on the left and chiffon on the right French Netting
|
Bridal
Illusion:
Available in white, diamond white, ivory and champagne, up to 108" wide. Bridal illusion bridal veils are made of a high quality tulle called bridal illusion which is a very soft nylon net. Bridal illusion holds up well at beach weddings and outdoor weddings.
Glimmer Illusion:
Also known as sparkle illusion and shimmer illusion. Available in white, diamond white and ivory up to 108" wide. Glimmer illusion wedding veils are like regular bridal illusion veils only with a brilliant sheen that sparkles. Glimmer illusion is almost as soft as bridal illusion. It is also a good choice for outdoor and beach weddings.
Chiffon - Polyester:
Available in white and ivory up to 60" wide. Chiffon veils are smooth and flowing. Chiffon is heavier than illusion and therefore not as poofy. Chiffon wedding veils are not transparent like illusion bridal veils. The polyester chiffon is more durable than silk chiffon and it holds up well in rain and moisture making it the better choice for outdoor weddings or beach weddings. (only works with a pencil edge or a beaded edge)
Chiffon - Silk: Available in white, natural/diamond white and cream/ivory up to 43" wide. Silk chiffon bridal veils are luxurious, light and flowing. Silk chiffon has a different texture than poly chiffon. The colors are also different, so it's a good idea to request swatches for wedding veils. This fabric is more fragile and does not work well in rain or moisture as water changes it. (only works with a pencil edge or a beaded edge)
French Netting: French net is also know as Russian netting. It is used to make birdcage veils and comes in white and ivory. This netting has larger honeycomb like holes. It's used as a visor veil on hats. Birdcage veils are very short and fit closely around the face making them a great choice for beach weddings and outdoor weddings.

Tiers for Layered Wedding Veils
|

1 Tier Wedding Veils:
are single layer veils. 1 tier bridal veils are transparent enough for the details of wedding gowns to show through. The single layer also makes them more manageable at beach weddings and outdoor weddings. |

3 Tier Wedding Veils:
triple layers give it even more body. Triple layered bridal veils have the fullest effect. This layering looks great with many types of wedding gowns.
|
|

2 Tier Bridal Veils:
Two layers add extra fullness and gives you the option of wearing one tier as a blusher (worn over your face as you walk down the aisle). Double layer wedding veils add interest to wedding gowns and the long tier can be detachable.
|

Mantilla Veils:
A mantilla is another option. Unlike the tier veils, it is not gathered at all. Mantilla veils are large flat circles or ovals. Mantilla veils are a great match for Spanish style and traditional wedding gowns. Since mantilla veils are not gathered they really let the details on the back of wedding gowns show through. The sheerness of mantilla veils is also helpful at beach weddings and outdoor weddings.
|

Birdcage Veil:
A birdcage veil is yet another option that is gaining popularity. A birdcage veil is a 1 tier veil made of French netting in a shape the fits to your face. A vintage look can be achieved with a birdcage veil, so they work well with wedding gowns that have a classic look. The small birdcage veil is ideal for beach weddings and outdoor weddings.
