The "Sara" veil

So - last week I was in  bridal  despair  - I had no planning enthusiasm and was feeling so lost in comparison to all the other 2010 brides,  who seem to have planned their entire wedding days already.

I posted a thread and so many lovely Hitchers responded and told me not to worry, I wasn't disorganised/lazy and that they often felt the same...

I then posted asking the hitchers where they got their wedding inspiration/themes from.......... I was curious as I  have none of my own - it has all come from magazines, blogs, hitchers weddings etc I was pleased to read the threads responses and learnt that other brides felt the same - some poeple of course have the wedding all planned out from age 5  - but that is not me, at all, I really don't have a clue what we want......

SO.........last month one of the England football team WAGS got wed, (Carly Zucker) I bought OK mag and had a leaf through their wedding  pics as I had heard that her dress was a lot like mine..... I found this photo and my heart lept - I love the veil, I think it  is one of the most beautiful classic bridal things I have seen

It isn't the best pic - but the veil has a 3.5cm ribbon edge and I Heart it, I really do, I knew that I had to have one...........I was web browsing this morning, not purposefully looking for anything, other than wasting time  and I found this

It must be fate if it is named after me??? Surely ????

Anyway @ 126 Inches it costs about £100 - so in reality I need to get myself on ebay and find a second hand one, but oh how lovely it is and how lovely it looks with our Carly's dress, I must have one, must must must!!

E-bay is totally the way to go!

I've found all sorts of amazing things there... I've been a bridesmaid enough times to know you can find just about anything on there... and sometimes you can find creative people who could even make something according to your specifications.  I've recently found an awesome fascinator maker on e-bay... and I'm talking to her about designing something for a friend. (cgi.ebay.ca/Hair-Fascinator-Juliets-veil-design-Hand-Crafted_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp3286Q2ec0Q2em14QQhashZitem4a99db3fd3QQitemZ320408862675QQptZLHQ5fDefaultDomainQ5f2QQsalenotsupported)  I'm sure you'll find something perfect!

Best wishes

Hi Sara,

The veil is beautiful and one of the most classy designs I have seen! I have helped some of my other friends source veils for themselves and I can recommend someone who makes them specifically according to your needs and is very reasonably priced as she works from home. The website is www.fit2dress.co.uk if you are interested.

Good luck for all the planning!

This is a beautiful classic style of veil. If you would like your veil made from silk tulle please contact me. I design and hand make silk tulle wedding veils and I have several pictures of 'real brides' on my website.
