We love hearing from our readers, especially when we receive your Ask Emmaline questions! Today we’re sharing a new Ask EB question from bride-to-be, Alicia. She asks, “I was getting fitted for my gown and my seamstress suggested I wear a long veil with it. She mentioned something about a mantilla lace veil, but I have never heard of it before. What is a mantilla lace veil?” Great question! In this feature, we’ll tell you what a mantilla lace veil is and inspire you with a stunning example. Plus, one lucky Emmaline Bride reader will win a mantilla lace veil for her wedding by Wedding Bliss by Maija! Let’s get started, shall we?

What is a Mantilla Lace Veil?

First things first: what is a mantilla lace veil? A mantilla lace veil is a traditional bridal veil that is usually long in length. It is ideal for a formal wedding. It features a decorative and wide lace along its edges (close to your face). A mantilla lace veil can be worn at the top of your head or underneath your hairstyle – whichever you prefer! – similar to other veil styles.

Many bridal ateliers and handmade wedding artisans offer a mantilla lace veil as part of their collection. You can find the veils above at Wedding Bliss by Maija.
