A cathedral veil acts as an extension of your wedding dress with a sophisticated sweeping train and is a focal point in any wedding ceremony. Some brides opt for a cathedral veil with a blusher for an extra boost of regality, while others prefer a cathedral lace veil for a timeless, elegant look. For dramatic effect, many brides opt for a veil that extends at least 5 feet past the train of the dress.


Originally named for its use on wedding dresses in cathedral and church weddings, cathedral veils can be worn in any setting, indoor or outdoor.


All wedding veils are beautiful in their own way, but the cathedral veil creates a dramatic, jaw-dropping moment for the bride as she walks down the aisle to her beloved.

The length of a cathedral veil is anywhere from 108 inches to 120 inches long. The dreamy and dazzling royal cathedral veil is even longer than a standard length cathedral veil at 130 inches long.


Depending on the length of the aisle and the style of the venue, brides can select a cathedral wedding veil for a church, beach, or winery setting, among many others.

Brides may choose to embellish a cathedral wedding veil in a variety of ways, including the following:


Lace: Sew dainty, detailed lace into a floor-length cathedral veil for a gorgeous, unique touch. Choose from vintage lace patterns for a traditional style, or incorporate a modern lace design that will turn heads.


Pearls: The small shops on Etsy can create a stunning pearl cathedral veil with gorgeous details that will make the veil unique to you. Line the trim of the entire veil, or have the seamstresses on Etsy create unique pearl patterns on the veil.


Embroidery: Add lace applique, floral designs, embroidered quotes, real flowers, and more. Embroidered flower veils are a timeless way to incorporate your wedding flowers into the veil and add a pop of color.
