Of course, I’m a fan of just about a schmillion different, wedding day trends, but birdcage veils are perhaps at the top of my list. Not only do they add a hint of modern day vintage to every bride they dress, but they are also a great way to bring DIY style to the forefront of your wedding day celebration.
Because of their versatility and famed support from celebrities like Drew Barrymore and Katherine Heigl, birdcage veils offer brides several styling options while creating a low maintenance way to capture incredible shots. Armed with sleek sophistication and vintage inspired designs, these timeless treasures will look ahhh to the mazing at every moment from saying your vows to dancing the night away without all the bulk or hassle of a traditional, formal veil.
Most local – as well as online craft stores like michaels.com and joann.com – will have all the supplies you’ll need to create your very own, one of a kind veil, and at super low prices. (cont’d below)

Whether you choose to use turn out your veil with feathers, fake furs, pearls or rhinestones, you’re sure to have something that will make a statement without ever saying a word. And because birdcage veils offer the bride the ability to have a haute couture look without a haute couture price, they’re easily one of the most successful and accessible wedding day accessories available.
From simple and elegant styles, accented with dainty, crystal bobby pins to over-the-top, feathered frocks, fashioned with bejewled, silk flowers and tons of bling, there’s easily a birdcage veil out there to fit every bride’s personality.
And even though their easy enough to craft yourself, these fun and sometimes feathered fashions can also be purchased on several sites, including etsy.com and birdcageveils.com. Simply find your style and run for the hills, down the aisle or across the dance floor with it! For serious, you won’t be sorry… I mean just look at these beauts!
