Vintage style birdcage veil for Meagan's wedding


Wedding season has begun and already brides are contacting me for veils and feathers for next year. I have found over the years that the vintage style cage veil is still very popular as brides are looking for something fresh and different. Here's a style that suits everyone and can be worn in a variety of ways from cocked to the side or straight up. I added satin rolled roses and feathers to give this piece a soft vintage quality. Meagan was one beautiful bride who went for the birdcage and she looked fabulous.

Here's what she had to say,
"Dear Alice, I wanted to thank you for the beautiful veil and flower you made for me. It was exactly what I had envisioned and I got so many compliments..It made the outfit! Thanks you so much. "Meagan Cameron


Meagan also wanted something to wear in her hair for the after ceremony and chose a fun feather flower. These flowers are light and airy and really add something to the ensemble.

Angela's wedding



What a pleasure to create a veil for a bride who wanted a unique look with an unusual color palette. What a beautiful color combination of burgundy and chartreuse..I love it!

The veil piece I designed was made up of handmade silk roses, green peacock hairs, burgundy feathers and dot veiling. I think it worked beautifully placing it on the side of the head. Thanks Angela.

Here's what Angela had to say:
"Thank you very much for working so hard to bring my wedding day vision to life. You're extremely talented and I love that I was able to meet you. Thanks again. "
