That is good to know Laura. I know one can make them, but it is usually a lack of confidence or the lack of a suitable base headband/headpiece that discourages people. The new wife of my husband's cousin had a less traditional dress, well..it was a formal dress but a non traditional style and just wore a clip in the back or her hair with a sheer white fabric and it worked really beautifully with her long hair.
I bought mine and it was almost the price i paid for my dress! (of course, i bought my dress on consignment so it was a fraction of the price. i should finally show pics of the alleged dress, shouldn't i?) Actually, my two aunts and two cousins bought it for me as a bridal shower present. They figured if I ever resold my dress or passed it along I could keep the veil that had only been worn by me.
