• Flyaway: This super short style, which hits just above the shoulder, will give you a playful, flirty look. It's most appropriate for daytime weddings and looks best with a simple gown with clean lines, a mini-dress, or a wedding suit. Most are very full and very bridal looking.
• Elbow-length: As the name implies, this veil reaches just to your elbow. It's a sweet, simple style that can work with virtually any wedding gown, although you should pick something a bit longer for a formal evening wedding. This veil length is great for petite brides.
• Fingertip: A veil that falls to your fingertips when your arms lie straight along your sides, this length is perfect for the indecisive bride -- it's dressier than shorter styles but doesn't have all the drama of longer ones.
• Waltz: This type of veil falls between your knees and ankles and, unlike longer veils, it allows you to dance with ease.
• Chapel: A veil that reaches to the floor and extends up to three feet past your hem falls into this category. It's a romantic look that's been growing in popularity for the past few years.
• Cathedral: Think Princess Diana -- yards of tulle extending down the aisle behind you. This is the choice of brides who want to feel like royalty, but keep in mind that it's not a low-maintenance look. You'll need at least one bridesmaid or flower girl to tend to your veil as you enter and exit the ceremony. It looks most appropriate in a grand church or other house of worship, and works only if the aisle you're walking down is a long one.
