Veil...

My wedding dress will be pure Red,IA thinkin to wear veil over it,now i would like something (different coloured veil) suggest me what colour i should go for.i think red veil will look too much but then it might give a traditional look,what do you guys say.how’s the idea of wearing a diff colour of veil..??
post some pics of brides with the veil, that’ll b gr8 help.
thx.

Re: Veil...

is there any contrst colour in there ie gold etc, try that.........but i think red may look best! more elegance xxxx

Re: Veil...

I'd have to see the dress before suggesting anything too different. If you've got red, I'd probably go with red.

Does the dress have any sheen to the embroidary? I did makeup for a bride who had a pure red dress with gold threading, but when she moved some of the glitter shone green and blue. It all depends on how you view it.

Re: Veil...

silsila had a beautiful veil :D

Re: Veil...

i'd do a gold, i think. red on red might be too vampy.

Re: Veil...

One of the girls here had a gorgeous veil..i think it was silsila..!

thanks guys here's pic lol

only wore it for nikah and rukhsati bits, didnt wear it when on stage etc this pic below someone took on a camera phone hence the poor quality, my bro and sis are with me

Re: Veil...

Re: Veil...

oh wow. ok i take it back- red veils can look gorgeous!

Re: Veil...

silsila, i sooooo loved everything about you on your wedding day! mA you were gorgeous and classy :)
outfit is sparkly, set is beautiful, its just so graceful. i'm going to go gush somewhere else now before i embarass myself lol

Re: Veil...

silsila and noor1234..mA you both look absolutely flawless :). what exactly did you use for the veil...a net dupatta? did you pin it on top of your other dupatta or just fix it to stay?

noor1234- i loooove your patha patti...where did you get it from??

Re: Veil...

it was net, not pinned, just draped over at the times i needed it, only prob was that it kept sticking to the kaam on my lengha, but the other materials wouldn't have given same effect, tried, really see through silk but couldn't se the face as can in a net.

SGC - ur tooooo sweet here is close up of set, from choice gold jewellers at liberty market xxxx
I never wanted to be an OTT bride with loads of necklaces etc lol, as it wasn't my style or taste. Wanted to be simple and elegant - thats the look i wanted.

Re: Veil...

wow silsila!

u hv to put up more pics of ur shadi, ur valima pics? everything from the little iv seen luks simply elegant and gorjus mashallah, ur so pretty! x

Re: Veil...

totally agree with sgc.

absolutely LOVVVVVEDDD you and pf's wedding pics....

thank you so much nabz... yeah it was a net dupatta, which i just had over me.. didnt used any pins... i should have cause the veil fell off so embarassing... :$ ...thanks god my brither quickly helped me with putting it on again... cause we had the rasm ke my husband should be the one to see me without the veil and then the rest of the guests....so for a couple of second i stood there without the veil ... but i think positive about that cause when the veil fell off, the photographer took a photo which turned out to be so nice... :D

about the mathapatti .. my set was from lahore ... it was a liberty design... cant really remember the name of the jeweller. ..
