Brides: love the style of a birdcage veil but have no idea how to wear it? You’ve come to the right place! In this post, we’ll tell you how to wear a birdcage veil with short hair, long hair, hair worn up, or hair worn down. Get inspired with the hottest handmade birdcage veils of the season! Let’s get started…
How to Wear a Birdcage Veil
First things first: what is a birdcage veil? A birdcage veil is a wedding veil style that is worn close to one’s face. It is typically made of French netting or tulle attached to a hair comb to accommodate any hairstyle.
Should you wear a birdcage veil throughout your entire day? That’s entirely up to you. Some brides opt to wear a traditional long veil for the ceremony and wear a birdcage veil for the reception. Others wear a birdcage veil for the ceremony and remove the piece for the reception. And, of course, many brides wear the birdcage veil from the walk down the aisle to the last dance. It’s entirely up to you!
How to Wear a Birdcage Veil
A birdcage veil can be worn in a variety of ways, depending on what feels most comfortable to you. If you’re wearing your hair down, simply slide the hair comb to position on the side of your head for an asymmetrical look. Or, slide the comb onto the top of your head for a fuller look.

trying to find some pictures, but with no luck.
getting married in October (2018), so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi D!
Great question! Do you have an undercut with short length or long length hair? We’ll try to pull some photos for you for inspiration. Happy to help!

I plan to wear birdcage veil on my wedding this summer of this year. I have a natural straight black hair, and I wanted to put the birdcage veil with my straight hair down (no curly). Do you think it looks good?
Thank you!
Hi Jane,
I think that sounds beautiful! Go for it!

The shorter veils bring an added “something-something” to the entire attire. Not to say that I do not love longer veils – I do, but I think the shorter ones are more fitting for the modern day bride with the love for vintage. All of the veils here (and the models!) are absolutely stunning.
Love the Pink Lace Garter w/ ostrich feathers, goose feathers & gorgeous gold encased pink!
