Veil #1
I wanted my veil to be interesting and elaborate since my train was short and had almost no detail. There was a design on one of the bridal gowns that I tried on that I loved, so I took a shot of that and my graphic designer best friend/bridesmaid was able to make a copy out of it on her computer.
I purchased a plain cathedral length veil and I asked my friend who sews and does bead work to help me make a veil out of the design. She blew up a large version of the design and worked off of that. Here are some pictures of the process:
and the finished veil…!
If anyone would like her information regarding veil bead work, her email is beadedveils@gmail.com. She’s one of my very good friends, so I would highly recommend her! 
Veil #2
Some people asked about the birdcage veil I wore in my e-pics.
I found the veil on myweddingveil.com and had a great experience! This one woman hand makes them all. She’s VERY sweet and accommodating. I told her I wanted a very simple look, but wouldn’t mind some feathers and some jewelry. The cost was a bit expensive ($85 total with shipping) but I absolutely loved it! I’m actually going to sell this beauty after the wedding for much cheaper, so if you’re interested please let me know!
WOW! That is some amazing bead work!!! How long did that take?!
What a great idea for getting a veil with some detail! You’re very fortunate to have two great, talented friends who were able to help out 
If my train were simple I would do the same thing!
I am interested in the bird cage! It is just what I have been looking for!
Wow! Your friend amazes me! I can’t even imagine being able to create something that beautiful.
Amazing bead and graphics work. Those are some friends.
Gorgeous by the way!
what i great idea. i would have never thought of doing the beading like that. your veil is amazing!
wow! So talented. It looks beautiful. I also love the birdcage veil. You pull it off well.
I LOVE the birdcage veil! Please let me know when you’re ready to part ways with it!
DEFINITELY interested in the birdcage…it is BEAUTIFUL!!!
Was your hair down for the birdcage? If so, how did you attach it? It looks beautiful. May I ask which veil you got on the website? I am so tempted to go out and get it!!!
Yes my hair was down! I was hoping to be able to pull it off in that 20’s way and I think it can work with some people. I’m still uncertain about wearing it on my wedding day though.
I’m not sure what Reem’s Harmony is? Oh and the veil took a VERY long time because of the intricate beadwork! Maybe about 4-5 months.
I will email those who are interested about the birdcage AFTER the wedding - that’s okay! =)
Wow, that is such amazing bead work! I love how you have such talented friends! The birdcage veil looks beautiful on you!
love it! i’m so jealous…your entire wedding gown and veil will be so pretty!
* Miss Caramel!! - I tried to e-mail you but your e-mail isn’t listed on the weddingbee directory~ :T
I LOVE your veil! - both of them. But I’m contemplating purchasing your birdcage veil for outdoor pics before the wedding. (I’m planning on wearing a sheer long veil for the ceremony.) I would love to bid for yours..but I think I would like to order the same veil (if you don’t mind) b/c knowing my luck, i will end up losing the bid for yours. Can you e-mail me and share the details of your veil..how should I go about ordering it? Thanks so much!!! 
It’s hard to get the beading symmetrical.
you will be GORGEOUS! will you be selling your cathedral veil as well? let me know!
have you sold the birdcage veil yet??
