Our wedding veils cost from £40 ($66) for a short shoulder length veil to £839 ($1,379) for a cathedral length mantilla with a wide lace edge. A plain single tier veil in a long length is about £145 to £170 ($239 to $281). Four things set the price: the length, the tulle, the edge and any lace or handwork. Below are real prices from our veils, so you can see what each one adds.

Prices were checked on 9 November 2026, in pounds and US dollars. The site shows prices in your own currency, and the price on each veil's page is always the current one.

What a veil costs, by type

Type of veil Price range
Short veil, shoulder or elbow (Adeen, Amber) £40 to £51 ($66 to $84)
Barely there, cut edge (Skylar) £63 to £105 ($104 to $173)
Classic single tier, cut edge £118 to £171 ($194 to $281)
Two tier with a blusher (Two tier cut edge) £129 to £219 ($212 to $360)
Full lace edge (Coria) £180 to £264 ($296 to $434)
Pure soft silk tulle (Honor) £180 to £360 ($296 to $592)
Lace mantilla (Sofia) £204 to £325 ($336 to $534)
Mantilla with a wide lace edge £549 to £839 ($903 to $1,379)

Each range runs from the shortest length to cathedral length.

Length

A longer veil uses more tulle and takes longer to finish, so the price rises with each length. On our single tier cut edge veil in traditional tulle, fingertip length (122cm) is £118 ($194) and cathedral length (300cm) is £156 ($257). On a veil with lace all the way round, the gap is bigger, because there is more lace to sew on: Coria goes from £180 ($296) at fingertip to £264 ($434) at cathedral.

If you need a length between two of ours, you can ask for an exact length when you order. It costs the same as the listed length you choose it under.

Tulle

We make veils in five tulles, and they are priced differently. Using the same single tier veil at fingertip length:

  • Traditional tulle: £118 ($194)
  • Silk style tulle: £129 ($212)
  • Italian tulle: £133 ($219)

Pure soft silk tulle is in a different bracket, because the silk itself costs far more. Our Honor veil in pure soft silk is £180 ($296) at fingertip and £360 ($592) at cathedral length. Our guide to what veils are made from explains how each tulle looks and feels.

The edge

A cut edge is simply cut, with no finish, and costs least. A pencil edge, a ribbon edge or a lace edge is sewn on by hand around the whole veil, which takes time. Lace edges cost the most, and the price depends on the lace: a narrow eyelash lace costs less than a deep Spanish lace.

Lace, embroidery and handwork

This is where the top of the range comes from. A mantilla has lace sewn by hand all the way round its oval. Beading, embroidered flowers and scattered pearls are all sewn one at a time. Our rose embroidered Mirin veil is £633 to £670 ($1,041 to $1,101) for that reason.

Personalised embroidery is added to the veil you choose. Initials and a date are £69 ($114), your own words £105 ($173) and your handwriting £157 ($258).

Small extras worth knowing about

  • Tulle samples: £3 to £6 ($5 to $10). Order these first to check the colour against your dress.
  • Magnetic veil weights for windy days: £26 ($43).
  • Veil hanging hook and storage bag set: £32 ($53).

Why a handmade veil costs what it does

Every veil we sell is made to order, one at a time, in our workshop in Bath. There is no stock room of finished veils. Someone here cuts your tulle and gathers it onto the comb by hand, then sews the edge. That is most of the cost, and it is also why we can make a veil to your exact length.

We also show the veil you will get. Our post the veil you see is the veil we make explains how we price and photograph our veils.

How to spend less

If your budget is tight, choose a shorter length, traditional tulle and a cut edge. A barely there veil like Skylar looks soft and light in photographs and starts at £63 ($104). Spend the difference on the length you really want, since that is what shows most in the aisle photographs.

Before you buy, order traditional tulle samples to hold against your dress. Then browse all our wedding veils, with every price shown on the page.

Your questions

Does an exact length cost more?

No. An exact length costs the same as the listed length you choose it under.

What are the prices for a cathedral length veil?

It depends on the tulle and the edge. Each veil's page shows the price for every length, so choose cathedral there to see it in your currency.

Is there a price difference with Italian tulle?

Yes, a small one. Italian tulle and silk style tulle cost a little more than traditional tulle, and pure soft silk costs much more.

How much do veil samples cost?

Our tulle samples cost a few pounds each. They are worth ordering first, to check the colour against your dress.
