Veil help!!!

Options
I cannot seem to find a reasonably priced two-tier plain ivory veil. I'm looking for either fingertip or chapel length. Just plain. No crystals, sequins, scalloped edges etc.

Please help...

    You could try light in the box, they are super cheap, but the customs is about a £10er.

    Hi Wanchai, if you want a really simple veil they are quite easy to make. Catherine was in the same position - every one she looked at was too 'flashy' she wanted a simple, ungathered, 2 tier veil. We bought some tulle and cut it to fit, then I edged it with tiny seed beads to give it enough weight to hang properly. If you didn't want beads you could edge it with a very narrow ribbon instead. The whole thing cost less than £20 and looks great. If you go down this route it takes a little time and effort but you get exactly what you want, and it is unique. If you want more info I am happy to help. I even have enough materials left to make another fingertip length ivory veil if anyone wants it!

    By the way, sorry about last week, I was having a really bad day and felt very vulnerable so over reacted - feel really bad now.

    Debbie

    Hi Wanchai,

    I used Pauline Nichol for my veil. They didn't have the exact one I wanted on the website, so I emailed and asked for my specific requirements. The only thing to bear in mind is the price on the website is exc VAT, so you need to factor that in. They were cheaper than any others I saw though.
