1 Tier Wedding Veils: are single layer veils. 1 tier bridal veils are transparent enough for the details of wedding gowns to show through. The single layer also makes them more manageable at beach weddings and outdoor weddings.
2 Tier Bridal Veils: Two layers add extra fullness and gives you the option of wearing one tier as a blusher (worn over your face as you walk down the aisle). Double layer wedding veils add interest to wedding gowns and the long tier can be detachable.
3 Tier Wedding Veils: triple layers give it even more body. Triple layered bridal veils have the fullest effect. This layering looks great with many types of wedding gowns.
Mantilla Veils: A mantilla is another option. Unlike the tier veils, it is not gathered at all. Mantilla veils are large flat circles or ovals. Mantilla veils are a great match for Spanish style and traditional wedding gowns. Since mantilla veils are not gathered they really let the details on the back of wedding gowns show through. The sheerness of mantilla veils is also helpful at beach weddings and outdoor weddings.

A vintage look can be achieved with a birdcage veil, so they work well with wedding gowns that have a classic look. The small birdcage veil is ideal for beach weddings and outdoor weddings.
