Real Bride - Michelle's Vintage Finishing Touches

Beautiful bride Michelle, wanted to an extra flourish to her tea length wedding dress and came to Dirty Fabulous in search of some romantic vintage pieces.
We helped Michelle pick out a 1920's Juliet veil, bespoke belt and beaded 1950's cardigan that all added to her stunning look on her big day.
Congratulations to Michelle and new hubby!

Veils: Will You Be Wearing One?

If you're toying with the idea of wearing a veil but can't decide whether it's too "bridal" or not really you, then I'd recommend giving it a whirl!

If you are in two minds at all, then at least try a few different styles on. I've yet to meet a bride who regretted wearing a veil on her big day. I didn't wear one when I got married, and looking back, I wish I'd taken the plunge as there's really no other occasion to rock a gorgeous tulle veil!

That's not to say a veil is for everyone. If even the thoughts of trying one gives you the shivers or its too out-there for your personal style then avoid at all costs, and don't let someone else talk you into wearing one! Stay true to yourself and what you want.

So, for any of you undecided brides looking for inspiration, here are a collection of real wedding photos with a range of beautiful veils along with new and vintage veils from the Dirty Fabulous bridal collection. 

Once you've decided yes, then comes the fun part: What length? Elaborate or simple? Vintage or new? Better try them all.... Enjoy!!!

The Vintage Veil

I didn't wear a veil when I got married over 10 years ago and now I kinda wish I had. 

Let's face it there won't really be an opportunity for me to wear one again and they aren't really for the everyday! 

So whilst I'll have to be content with getting my veil fix when playing dress-up in the shop...I mean working...those brides planning their wedding can still think about adding a veil to their wedding day look.

Take some inspiration from these 1920's and 30's brides who are all wearing incredible full tulle veils, many in the Juliet style. The veils in these images create such an ethereal and dramatic impact... cue veil envy....

Our veils range in price from €45 to €280

Just take a look at Peggie! She wore a sheer tulle bridal cap with rhinestone detail and a long sheer veil for extra drama. The photos perfectly capture just how stunning she looked on her big day. The impact of the veiling is fabulous. Love it Peggie!!!
