Personally, I'm going for fingertip because I'm clumsy and it's one less thing to trip over. I'm terrified I'm going to go bouncing down the aisle on my bottom.:D

Codemonkey, I was thinking exactly the same thing, I am terrified of doing something like that!

I went with a shorter one but that is because I have detail on my dress, my mum wore a cathedral length and it went really well with her dress which was plain, it is edged in lace. Could you take a pic of yourself in the dress then head to a veil shop, if you at least get to compare them you may feel better about choosing

Do you have any friends who are married who may have veils that you can try on to get an idea of length?

Thats a great idea picklepick, hadn't thought of that! I know of people that have worn shorter ones but now to find someone that has a long one!:T

I saw a beautiful spanish veil on ebay a couple of days ago. I think it's gone now as I can't find it. I really wanted it but it was all wrong for my dress.

Cathedral veils are totally gorgeous with simple dresses though.

Just wanted to update to let you all know, just managed to get a bargain veil on ebay, full length for £4! So even if I dont like it I can get an idea and then resell if needed
So once again thank you very much everyone :T

I love your dress! I agree that the catherdral veils look stunning but I am swaying towards a fingertip length for your particular dress.
