Cathedral Veil

This style of veil reaches the floor.  It is ideal for a formal church wedding, worn with a full length bridal gown

Fingertip Veil

As the name suggests, this veil reaches to the tips of the fingers with your arms by your sides.  It is a popular length and has echoes of the 1950s.  It is particularly effective with a nipped in waist and flared skirt.

Shoulder Length Veil

Often known as a blusher length veil, this is what most brides-to-be opt for.  It is very flattering, complimenting most wedding dress styles and face shapes.  A shoulder length veil looks pretty when tiered and is light and easy to wear.  One thing to look out for is volume - if there is lots of material it can drown the face at this length.

Fascinator Veil

This is a short veil, which just covers the face.  It is a great choice for a modern wedding or civil ceremony and works well with a shorter style dress.
