How Our Brides Matched Their Veils to Their Gowns (And Added Personal Touches You’ll Love)

At Dentelle Bridal, we believe the veil is more than just a tradition—it’s the finishing touch that completes your bridal story. Whether you’re all about classic elegance, modern minimalism, or dreamy romance, the right veil can elevate your entire look.

Let’s take a look at how some of our brides paired their veils perfectly to reflect their style and personality.


1. Classic Romance with a Twist – Bride Varene

Bride Varene wore a romantic, minimalist sheath gown featuring a soft French lace bodice and plain skirt. Instead of keeping her veil simple, she added a whimsical twist—a long veil scattered with 3D flowers and butterfly appliqués that danced as she walked.

Personal touch: Her wedding logo was delicately hand embroidered with crystal beads onto the veil, making it a meaningful keepsake long after the big day.

2. Custom-Made Magic – Bride Samantha

Not every bride dreams of white. Samantha had a custom gown made with soft colored floral lace, giving her look a refreshing, ethereal charm. To complete it, we designed a bespoke veil that echoed the florals of her dress, tying everything together beautifully.

Her look was bold, feminine, and one-of-a-kind—just like her.

Personal touch: Samantha took it one step further—she had her initials and wedding date embroidered onto the veil, adding a deeply meaningful detail to her custom look. A perfect blend of color, creativity, and sentiment.

3. The Timeless Pearl Veil – Brides Hui Zhen & Jean

Pearl veils are a top favorite among our brides, and for good reason: they’re romantic, versatile, and add just the right hint of detailing.

  • Bride Hui Zhen chose a structured satin mermaid gown. The pearl-studded veil softened the look and gave her a glowing finish.

  • Bride Jean wore an off-shoulder lace gown for her garden wedding. The floating pearls on her veil caught the light beautifully, adding elegance to her romantic silhouette.

Two very different gowns—one timeless veil detail that works with both.


4. The Power of Simplicity – Brides Chloe & Cordelia

Sometimes, less really is more. A plain tulle veil works wonders when your gown already speaks volumes.

  • Bride Chloe wore a sleek, minimalist gown. Her plain veil flowed effortlessly, completing the clean and modern aesthetic.

  • Bride Cordelia’s dress featured sparkling, glittery lace all over. She paired it with a plain tulle veil to balance the textures and keep the focus on her dazzling gown.

It’s a quiet choice that lets the dress do all the talking.


5. Short & Chic – Brides Angeline & Juliet

Short veils are perfect when you want to highlight statement features or create a light, effortless vibe.

  • Bride Angeline had a dramatic lace train, so she chose a short lace veil that added charm without competing with the gown’s grandeur.

  • Bride Stephanie had a gown with a detachable flowing train. A long veil would’ve hidden the details, so a short, sheer veil kept the design front and center.

💫 Bonus: Add a Personal Touch to Your Look

Even if you’re renting your gown, you can still make something uniquely yours. Many Dentelle brides choose to:

Photo provided by bride

  • Embroider their names, wedding date, or initials on their veil
  • Add a custom wedding logo or meaningful phrase
  • Keep the veil as a treasured keepsake—even after returning the gown

It’s these thoughtful touches that transform your bridal look into a memory that lasts a lifetime.
