When selecting your wedding veil color, remember this golden rule: match it as closely as possible to your dress. Even with the same designer, fabric dye lots can vary. We always recommend getting our complimentary veil fabric swatches first to ensure your veil perfectly complements your gown. This extra step guarantees a flawless match and a truly stunning bridal look.
We've created this comprehensive guide to help you understand the nuances of veil colors, and how to choose the perfect shade for your special day.
Soft Tulle
Our dreamy soft tulle comes in four gorgeous shades: white, light ivory, ivory, and blush.
Featuring fine diamond-shaped waves with silky smoothness, creating an ethereal look without the puffiness of traditional tulle. Perfect for brides desiring a flowing veil that moves with effortless grace.
White
White veils are a true, snow-like white with a blue undertone. While many brides seek this classic shade, it's worth noting that most wedding gowns aren't pure white. Even dresses labeled as "white" often have a soft ivory hue.
Light Ivory
Light ivory is the "standard" color in the bridal world. It's a versatile favorite that beautifully complements most wedding gowns.
Light ivory is a soft off-white shade between white and ivory. It beautifully complements natural, non-dyed silk wedding gowns.
Fun fact: over 98% of our veils are crafted in this versatile light ivory shade.
Ivory
Ivory tulle is the warmest of our 4 colorways, with a yellow undertone.
It's perfect for dresses that are genuinely ivory to the naked eye. The warm hue beautifully complements dresses with a yellow undertone, creating a cohesive and enchanting bridal look.
Blush
Blush tulle has a lovely brown undertone, perfect for pairing with nude, beige, or champagne gowns.
It's also a dream match for light gold dresses, adding warmth and richness to your bridal look.

Sheer Tulle
Our sheer tulle veils come in light ivory and ivory, blending beautifully with any wedding dress thanks to their ultra-sheer nature.
This whisper-light fabric is perfect for brides dreaming of an ethereal, barely-there look.
Light Ivory
Light ivory is our top choice in sheer tulle veils. It blends beautifully with dresses in white, ivory, nude, and even light gold.
Ivory
If your dress is truly ivory to the naked eye, we'd suggest matching it with our ivory sheer tulle. This shade has a warmer, slightly yellow tone that'll beautifully complement your gown.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will a white veil match my ivory dress?
This is one of the most frequent concerns we hear! Rest assured, a light ivory veil typically complements most wedding dress shades beautifully, from pure white to deeper ivory tones. The sheer nature of veil tulle allows it to blend seamlessly with various dress colors.
Should my veil be the exact same shade as my dress?
Your veil should be a close match for your gorgeous dress.
When you wear your veil, it will drape smoothly and naturally, creating an elegant single layer of sheer tulle.
Typically, you'll want to choose a veil in the same shade as your gown. If you're between colors, like light ivory or ivory, go for the lighter option (light ivory) over darker (ivory).
For ivory dresses, stick with ivory veils. White veils are rare these days and can create a stark contrast with ivory gowns - not the dreamy look most brides envision.
How do I choose the color if my dress is two-toned?
Two-tone dresses have become very popular in recent years in the bridal world. If you're rocking a dress with a champagne, pink, or deep ivory base and light ivory lace overlay, we've got you covered. Our top tip is to match your veil to the base color of your dress, not the lace. This creates a beautifully cohesive look that'll have you feeling like an absolute vision on your big day
