How I Made My Wedding Veil

In this video I show how I made my own cathedral length, waterfall style, wedding veil to complete my bridal look. I used 4 yards (length) of 90 in (wide) 'Diamond White' (color) tulle (type of fabric), but then rounded the ends (waterfall style), so the length of the veil was about 144 inches. On my veil, the blusher (the part the covers my face) is part of my veil. It is all one piece, not a sperate piece. The only cutting I did of the tulle was on the ends to round it. Veils need some why to be attached to the head. Sometime you can just do this with bobby pins, but usually there is a comb or headband. In my case I used a tiara to secure the veil to my head. The only sewing I did on this project was to attach the veil to my tiara. Of course since I sewed the veil to the tiara, there was no easy way to detach it quickly, therefore, I decided to change tiaras (and dresses for the matter) for the reception. I did not have a pattern for this veil, just a dream, and I took inspiration from the best wedding veil I have ever seen ~ the one Meghan Markle wore while being married to Prince Harry~ This was the main inspiration for my veil. I was so surprised at how expensive wedding veils could be! They can be as much as the dress! AND wedding veils can be so easy to make on your own. I hope this video helped give you the confidence to make your own veil or that you just found it really fun. 0:00 Intro 0:35 Choosing Fabric for the Veil 2:19 Making the Veil 16 Hours Befor
