Editors Introduction: Getting the right wedding veil can be very time consuming and expensive . If you know what sort of veil you want, why not make your own. In this way you can have exactly the wedding veil you want. It isn’t hard to do and you can keep making changes until it is perfect.

When I got married, I did a lot of the things my own way. Though I found a lot of great information online, and knew where to get the best bargains, there were just certain things that I wanted to do on my own. I have always been like that, and my husband-to-be was not that surprised. I saved a fortune on my wedding dress because I chose one that was a few seasons old, and I thought about my guests before I thought about what I wanted. I even made my own wedding veil.

After I found a bargain on the wedding dress I loved, I had a little extra money to spend, but that didnt mean I was going to spend it. I could have bought a wedding veil that was very nice, but I couldnt see spending the money on it when I could make one myself that I would love. It did take me a while to get it right, but the wedding veil I made was very nice, and fit my personality perfectly. I didnt want something hanging over my face, and that did make things a little easier.

I bought a few years of tulle to make my own wedding veil, and then used a hair clip to attach it. It took me a few tries to get it right, but in the end I was very proud of what I had done. No one would know that it was homemade, and I could then do what I wanted with it. I found a butterfly in a craft store that matched the ones on my wedding invitations, and I added that to the bottom of my wedding veil. My friends loved it, and said it looked like a butterfly was following me around all day on my wedding day.

If you want to save money on your own wedding veil, dont be afraid to make one on your own.
