Veils, veils, and headpieces..

So I've been thinking... I've always wanted a wedding veil that is pretty traditional. They are called "Mantilla" veils. I think they are so beautiful. I love how, in this picture from Paloma Blanca, the model is wearing it towards the back, and not on her forehead. It looks a little more modernized. But I guess you have to pick your dress first, huh, then your veil!! Doesn't hurt to look though :)

I've also noticed so many brides are now wearing these vintage inspired veils. The "birdcage" veils. They are gorgeous, just not sure I would be able to pull one off?? And what kind of dress to wear with it, a simple one I suppose?

I especially love this one in particular, which of course... I would love the most expensive one I've seen so far. The headpiece is custom designed by Jennifer Behr. Such a beauty...


There are also other options for headpieces, that are a little more budget friendly. There's this site called Etsy, not sure if you've heard of it, but they have tons of handmade things. Most of them are beautiful. You can find so many things there, you can get lost in that site! Here are a few headpieces I found from Etsy.
