I am getting married in September 2006. My fiance has been married before and has two kids and two step kids--the youngest is 16, othe oldest is 27! I get along great with all of them and they all seem very happy about the marriage. His first wedding was a civil ceremony and then they went to dinner. Nothing fancy. We are planning a larger, more traditional wedding; however, I'm very sensitive to the kids needs and the fact that it is his second marriage. My dress has a small train--nothing princess like. My question is, is it appropriate for me to wear a veil? Or should I stick with crystals? I'm trying to be appropriate for my age (42) and the situation, but it is my first (and ONLY) marriage. Thanks for your help!
This is your first wedding so technically you can wear a veil, if you like. Please consider the style of your dress and the formality of your wedding to choose the veil. If your age is a consideration then choose a veil without a blusher veil (over the face). Ask the bridal shop owner where you bought your dress to suggest appropriate veil lengths and styles to coordinate.
