Why Does a Bride Wear a Veil at Her Wedding?

From June Hoffman and Erik Michaels of Megasoud

A bride’s veil dates back to ancient times and arranged marriages. A groom would not see his bride until the wedding ceremony. The unveiling of the bride was typically a part of the wedding ceremony.


Many cultures also believed that a veil was worn as protection from evil spirits or an evil eye. The veil would be part of the “disguise” that a bride wore so evil spirits would not make trouble for her on her wedding day.

Nowadays, brides wear a veil as an adornment to compliment their wedding dress. The veil completes the whole bridal "look". Veils come in every length from cathedral to the French veiling (that looks like a tiny net birdcage).

Fort Wayne bridal salons offer veils, tiaras, hairpins, and more. To save time, attend a trunk show that features unique veil designers. Megasound works with Fort Wayne wedding professionals who offer exceptional veils and other bridal accessories. To find out more, give us a call.
