It’s no doubt that bridal veils transform a gown into something stunning and impactful. For some brides, an elegantly perched or draped veil provides the final touch that makes them feel truly magical. And though the elegant cascade of these delicate pieces creates mesmerizing effects, brides who love alternative styles have plenty of other options to elevate their look. From headbands to dramatic dress trains, find the style that reflects you the best.

Not a fan of decorating your hair with bows and hair chains? You don’t have to! Choose a flowy dress that draws attention, one that is a unique color or features a long train. One with major shoulder movement is enough to complete the fashion aesthetics with minimal effort. You can choose to add a wired headpiece or flower crown for a bit of dazzle or simply style your hair for an effortless look.
Half Crowns For Full Effects
