Mantilla veil or no??

The veil in the second picture looks nice. It matches the dress without being distracting I think

I agree with PP.

Your gown is so beautiful, I would hate to see it covered up! I think a lace veil would (unfortunately) take away from the train of the dress.

Your dress is gorgeous, Katlyn!

Is the veil in the second photo the cathedral length mantilla veil you like?

View Quoted Comment I agree, the veil seems to cover up the beautiful lace train.

The veil in the second photo is not a mantilla, it is a cathedral length with beading along the edge. It's the one I tried on with the dress in the salon.

And thanks lol!!! This dress definitely chose me, I was NOT expecting to walk away with a dress!! It is Martina Liana #1111.

For a mantilla veil that I was thinking about, I was thinking about something more simple such as this: https://www.themantillacompany.com/collections/mantillas/products/fernanda-cathedral-length-mantilla?variant=1231378172

or this: https://www.themantillacompany.com/collections/mantillas/products/juliana-floor-length-mantilla-veil?variant=1162239120

Do you think these options would be doable?

View Quoted Comment I think a mantilla veil would go beautifully with the style (appliqué) of the dress, it’s just that there’s so much detail on the train that I wouldn’t personally want to cover it up with a cathedral length. I’m torn. I think it would look good but I also think a fingertip length would work.

Thanks so much for the honesty! I have really been struggling with this decision :-[

I think if you did do the veil it should be the second link you added. i do love the dress but the veil for sure needs to be sheer and not super super ornate.

I like the veil. I don't think it takes away from your dress at all.

I think either simple veil like your second photo, or the second link you shared would definitely work! I personally love the cathedral veil with your dress, I think it’s gorgeous!!

View Quoted Comment But that’s just my opinion! If it’s your dream to
wear a cathedral length mantilla veil then you’re still going to ROCK it!

Yeah I think the ones you linked to, especially the 2nd are still simple and sheer enough to let the dress shine through. All
