Collection: Chapel Length Wedding Veils

A chapel-length veil is an elegant option that extends about 90 to 100 inches from the comb to the end. At Tara Bridal, our chapel veil is specifically 90 inches long. It’s long enough to gently trail behind you, adding a soft, romantic touch without being too dramatic. This style pairs beautifully with a variety of wedding dresses and works especially well if you want a graceful look without the length of a cathedral veil.

The main difference between a cathedral and a chapel veil lies in their length. A cathedral veil typically measures between 108 to 110 inches, with the cathedral veil at Tara Bridal specifically being 110 inches. This length is often favored by many brides for its dramatic effect. In contrast, a chapel-length veil is around 90 inches, making it ideal for wedding dresses with floor-length trains or those without a train. The chapel veil offers elegance and flow without the extra volume, making it a great choice for a refined bridal look.

The color of your veil should be selected to match your dress. If your gown is white or ivory, select a veil in the same shade for a cohesive look. For warmer tones like champagne or blush, a soft ivory or neutral hue will create a lovely balance. The key is to find a color that enhances your dress without overpowering it.

The width of a chapel-length veil can vary based on the style you're aiming for. A standard option is about 72 inches wide, providing a nice balance of fullness to frame your dress without being too much. If you want a more dramatic effect, you can go wider, up to 95 inches. On the other hand, if you’re leaning toward a simpler, more subtle look, a narrower veil around 54 inches could be just right.

At Tara Bridal, we also offer custom veil options. Please contact us if you need any advice!
