What Is a Blusher Veil: 7 Styles to Inspire You

Are you planning to wear a blusher veil on your wedding day?

Um, what IS a blusher veil?!

You’re not the only one who has asked this question. I, too, once had the same veil uncertainty while planning my wedding. I haven’t always been this cool, calm, and collected wedding expert, ya know.

Totally kidding. I drink too much coffee to be calm, but the rest is absolutely SPOT ON. ;)

When I was shopping for veils, I knew I wanted, “one of those veils that covers my face“; after further research, I figured it out. Blusher veil. Boom.

Blusher Veil: What Is It?

In its simplest terms, a blusher veil covers your face while you walk down the aisle. When you reach the end of the aisle, the veil is lifted up and over your head. In some cases, the veil is not lifted over your head, in the case of a birdcage veil where its placement is intended to stay where it is on your face.

Otherwise, your veil pretty much gets lifted up, over, and down. A blusher is traditionally 27″ in length, but this can vary depending on its style.

Now that you know what it is, let’s get some inspiration going! To do so, we’re consulting one of the best veil designers in the biz: Tessa Kim. My goodness, she is one-of-a-kind.

Tessa’s veils are exceptionally made, beautifully photographed (by Deyla Huss Photography), and are always up-to-date with the latest styles and trends. They’re completely handmade, just for you.
