For the second of our veil features we wanted to run through the different types you might want to consider for your wedding day. Last week<\/a> we explored the classic veil options. Ask someone what they think of as a veil and they will often describe something like this.<\/p>\n

Bandeau Veils<\/h1>\n

The first of our different options for you are bandeau veils<\/a>. Bandeau\u2019s have more of a vintage feel and are attached either side of the head. The term \u2018bandeau\u2019 is often used interchangeably with \u2018birdcage\u2019 so look closely at the fixing options to determine which is which! Birdcage veils are attached on the top of the head rather than the sides.<\/p>\n

Drop Veils<\/h1>\n

Next are drop veils<\/a>. These are simple and drape over the head. Drop veils are often held in place with a headband, a shown in our images for our ‘Rhiann’ drop wedding veil, but \u00a0we can also sew a comb into them instead if you prefer. Click for our ‘How to secure a drop wedding veil<\/a>‘ guide.<\/p>\n

\"Britten<\/p>\n

Juliet Cap Veils<\/h1>\n

Juliet cap veils<\/a> are another option. They have a super vintage, almost medieval look that comes from their origins in 16th Century England. They are believed to have been invented, and popularised, by actors in the first performances of William Shakespeares \u2018Romeo & Juliet\u2019.<\/p>\n

\"Britten<\/p>\n

Mantilla Veils<\/h1>\n

Finally you may want to consider our newest mantilla veils<\/a>. Mantillas are a design of Spanish origin. They are circular and entirely edged with lace. It is a very striking effect, do have a look at our blog post \u2018What is a mantilla veil<\/a>\u2019 for more info.<\/p>\n
