When someone asks if you prefer cathedral length or chapel length, is your answer, “I’m really not religious”? Let review some terms so you don’t feel like you have a “kick me” sign on your back when you go shopping for a headpiece. Cathedral is the longest veil length, with about five or six feet dragging on the floor behind you. Chapel length is the next longest, with about two-feet of fabric touching the ground. Next up, falling long, but not to tripping length, is ballet length, which hits at about the ankles. Shorter styles are finger-tip length (measured with your arms hanging at your sides) and elbow length. Merrowing means finishing the edges with stitching. If you order a veil made of tulle (the stuff of tutus) , the edges will be either unfinished (as in cut with scissors, just like you might do at home, for free) ,merrowed or trimmed (like with a narrow piece of satin). If you want a headband with some poufiness attached or tulle hanging from the back, the correct term would be “headband.” Use similar logic if you’re looking for a barrette headpiece. Those little yarmulke-like caps that go on the back of the head and have tulle or illusion trailing from the bottom are called Juliet caps. A crown of flowers is called a wreath (see- you knew that one, didn’t you). And a large or small piece of lace draped over the head is a mantilla (say it in Spanish) . There are countless more choices, and there are also other terms for these same styles. So if a surly salesperson wants to pretend he doesn’t know what you are talking about, he can, in spite of your preparation. That might be a good time to mention your tendency to throw up when you’re nervous.
There are different veiled to be used for a wedding, there is a dress code that need to follow. It still depends on the couple because this is their special day. But you need to see if this fits on the place of the wedding. Ask for some advices, and take a look when is each veiled used in different location.
