    I always wanted mine over my face as I thought that was the point of having a veil but now most pictures of brides I look at just have it clipped at the back so im not sure what I am doing yet. Would need to practice having it lifted back and I suppose that will also alter how I have my hair etc. eek so many decisions!!

    I don't think I want a veil... I tried one on and felt a bit to formal... I don't think it's really 'me', so I'm going with a side jewelled comb thingy (I've completely forgotten what they're called!)

    If I was to wear a veil though I'd wear it at the back of my hair, not over my face x

    I'm having a single-tier cathedral length veil clipped into my hair at the back. I'm not a big fan of the look of double tier veils personally, and I don't like the symbolism.

    I'm having a single tier because of the detailing on the back of my dress. Also I think I'd feel daft with it over my face, and I know my Dad would feel silly taking it off my face. And... the veil is a sign of innocence that my two BF BMs would giggle about :P The problem of having uni housemates as your BMs!! :D

    during the 90's and Nougtys it became very unfashionable to have veil over your face or at all, but people like Kate Middleton, her now cousin Zara Phillips and Kate Moss have show how cute It can look! Im really slowly coming over to the veil side I think!

    I'm wearing mine on the back ...definitely not over my face....this is just my opinion, but I think cos I've had three kids with my h2b it's just not for me, feels like I'm pretending to be some virginal, innocent thing which I'm obviously not haha, my sister who gets married next May feels the same. My mum on the other hand wore hers over her face and she had two kids and was pregnant with my brother so everyone's different xxxx
