Gone with the Veil

Working as a wedding planner it has become apparent that tradition....is OUT the window! Anything goes now a days and one of things I have seen change is the veil. There are many versions of a wedding veil now and many other head piece options besides a veil. Now don't get me wrong, many brides are still rocking that tradition and I was one of them.

I am a headband fanatic! I have a lot of them and there are perfect for the days when your hair just isn't falling right. Here are some wedding inspired headbands that would be the perfect alternative to a veil

There is also the brides that are wearing a wedding veil, but adding some spice to it with these gorgeous trends:

My friend Elissa wore a Birdcage Veil with an attached floral/feather piece. Once the ceremony was over she was able to take off the veil and keep the floral piece. It was such a classic look.

Who can forget the wedding scene of Carrie and Big in Sex and the City? She took a wedding veil and made it funky by adding a featherd bird on the side of her head. You can modify this look with ostrich feathers, peacock feather, or a butterfly.
