That''s it! Now, what type of veil should I wear????

 

[Love in Bloom]

Are you set on wearing a veil? Because I think if you wear your hair up or in a low ponytail, some white flowers would look nice in your hair

I think your dress is gorgeous BTW

 

[MoonWater]

Oooh nice! I love love love the back!

 

[SarahLovesJS]

One of those pretty lace veils!!

Or tulle? Love the dress!

 

[Fancy605]

I think a very simple veil since the dress is so intricate. Maybe a long one? But it dosen''t seem to need anything ornate.

I love it though! It''s perfect!

 

[E B]

I agree with Love; no veil, just flowers in your hair. That dress is too stunning to cover up in any way.

 

[swimmer]

I agree with E, there is so much gorgeous detail. Just something simple in your hair if you don''t need a veil for religious reasons. What a dress!

 

[karasue91]

wow, that dress is gorgeous on you!! i like the no-veil look too...

 

[basil]

Yeah, I need to have a veil. Just for the 15 minute ceremony. Long, single layer, cut edge, you think? I''m putting some orchids in my hair for the rest of the night though.

Definitely, as sheer as possible.

 

[goldenstar]

Very Lovely!! The back is TDF!!!

 

[Gypsy]

WOW. It is SO FREAKING BEAUTIFUL ON YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously, that dress was made for you. I love the lace and the sash... and all of it. So perfect. Congrats Basil. I love it paired with your flowers too!!

 

[Independent Gal]

It''s truly gorgeous!

I agree on veil-minimalism, if you really want a veil. Otherwise, I think just some lovely big orchids in your hair would look best!

 

[SuLi]

Ohhhh....I really love your dress! I think I might have missed it, but who is the designer? You look really beautiful. Good luck with finding a veil! I don't know anything about them (and I'm not wearing one personally), so I can't offer any advice.

 

[anchor31]

Wow. That dress look amazing on you!!

For the veil, I say go as sheer as you can, fingertip or chapel length, cut edge.

 

[emilina22]

wow it look so pretty on you...it really does!

[misysu2]

Oh basil, I LOVE the back!! So elegant, so beautiful! The colors are super yummy, too!!

 

[basil]

Thanks Love in Bloom, Moonwater, SarahlovesJS, Fancy605, EBree, swimmer, karasue, goldenstar, Gypsy, Independent Gal, SuLi, anchor31, emilina22, canuk-gal, misyu2, and anyone I might have missed!

I was really nervous about it, so I''m glad that I got it on and it actually kinda fits. I''m sort of pear-shaped, so I am surprised that the top only needs to be taken in a little. I think I''m going to tack the lace together at the v-neck a little so it is not soooo low cut.

 

[CJ2008]

basil, I LOVE the dress, it''s beautiful. I''m pear-shaped too, and also ended up buying a body conscious dress. I was surprised that it looked nice, I tried it on only because my mom, aunt and sister insisted...

 

[AmberGretchen]

LOVE IT

Its so classic and it looks so lovely on you

I think a simple veil will be lovely, and then flowers after the ceremony as you say. How are you wearing your hair?

 

[Sabine]

So beautiful!!!!

 

[Harleigh]

Basil,

Is that the Jim Hjelm dress? I think that is one I wanted to try on and never found. I love it on you! It looks fantastic!

 

[bee*]

It looks absolutely beautiful on you! Gorgeous!
