Are you looking for a unique wedding veil to wear at your ceremony? You’ve come to the right place! We love Etsy veils and we’re rounding up the most unique styles for 2023 wedding season.
But first, let’s talk about what it really means to buy wedding veils from Etsy.
Etsy Wedding Veils
When we launched Emmaline Bride in 2009, it quickly gained popularity as The Handmade Wedding Blog, what we are still known for today.
Handmade is at the heart of what we do, and that’s not to be confused with DIY. Do-it-yourself is great, but what we do is promote the best handmade artists online and encourage couples to “shop small for the big day”. :)
All of these years later, it continues to grow and, while we also share helpful wedding tips and advice, we continue to keep handmade in our hearts as we share the best Etsy wedding veils, gowns, shoes, accessories, wedding decor, ceremony accessories, bridesmaid gifts, groomsmen gifts, and more to promote our love and support of handmade.
If you’re familiar with Etsy, you know it is the leading marketplace to find handmade goods online. And if you’re unfamiliar, think of Etsy as the place for small businesses to sell and promote their handmade products to a large audience. Weddings are a BIG part of Etsy, but you wouldn’t know about it unless you’ve uncovered it.
That’s why we launched this place: to showcase the work and talents of so many individuals across the globe.
Etsy is the only place where you can browse a plethora of talented designers and custom bridal veils created for YOU… and that’s exactly what we’re showing you today.
How to Keep Your Veil in Place
First, here’s a helpful tip: if you’re wearing a veil outdoors where it may be windy, don’t forget to pick up a set of veil weights. They will keep your veil in place instead of blowing all over your face. ;) These are attached with magnets to weight your veil a bit. The pearls blend right in so no one knows you’re wearing veil weights but you!

In addition, you can also use bobby pins, hold your arms down at the sides with the veil gently tucked behind, or use a solid bridal comb that will ensure the veil holds tight.
Can You Buy a Wedding Veil on Etsy?
Yes! Of course you can… and you shouldn’t be nervous about it. Many designers, particularly those mentioned in this blog post, have long track records of happy customers. When in doubt, always read the reviews before buying Etsy veils (or anything for that matter). If you have a question on a custom veil, just ask: you can direct message any shop by clicking on the link of their website (just click the name of the shop below that is underlined or click on the photo to take you to their store). Most Etsy artists respond very quickly, within the next business day.
Read Etsy Shop Reviews When Buying Veils
And if you’re still unsure how it will look, check out the individual shop policies. Some stores offer returns, others do not; be sure to read everything before you buy. I know and have heard from many brides who bought their wedding veils on Etsy and were absolutely delighted with the result. It has been around for many years now, so it’s not a new thing to buy a veil online, so feel confident when you shop and always be sure to bring the veil to your dress fitting to make sure it’s exactly the look you’re going for ahead of the big day.
It’s been too long since we’ve browsed the latest in Etsy veils, so today we’re rounding up the most beautiful handmade bridal veils for 2023 and into 2024. We’re sharing pearl veils, cathedral length, birdcage, two-tier, one-tier, elbow to fingertip — a little bit of everything is here for every bride!

Handmade Veils
Small businesses sell their handmade products on Etsy and weddings are a HUGE part of the puzzle. From wedding gowns to veils, groomsmen gifts to ceremony accessories, ceremony decor to arches, you’ll find the best wedding items on Etsy. It’s not just about supporting handmade; it is also about finding unique items for your wedding day that haven’t been done 100x before.
And when it comes to veils, many people think you have to shop off the rack or at a bridal store. Many people don’t realize just how many beautiful wedding veils come from Etsy and, you wouldn’t really know it unless someone tells you. So, allow me to be that person! ;) There are dozens upon dozens of beautiful veils from Etsy artists and that’s why this list highlights the best ones for your wedding day.
We hope this list has inspired you to shop handmade from REAL independent artists with a passion for creating that you won’t find in big box chains.
These custom veils are to be used on the wedding day and cherished as long-lasting mementos.
After all, a custom veil from Etsy is:
• handmade
• custom-made
• unique
• not available off of a rack
Instead, it is unique! You can choose the bridal veil length you want, from short veil, blusher veil, cathedral veil, or even a pearl veil, and make it a reality.
