It's almost impossible to judge veil colour accurately from a designer dress photo — lighting, editing and screen settings all change how it appears. Designer colour names aren't reliable either: what one brand calls ivory, another calls white or off-white.
We offer two shades:
Off-white — our palest shade. A soft, clean bridal white with very little warmth or creaminess.
Ivory — warmer and creamier. Best suited to gowns with a soft or traditional ivory tone.
This style is offered in three shades:
Off-white — our palest shade. A soft, clean bridal white with very little warmth or creaminess.
Ivory — warmer and creamier. Best suited to gowns with a soft or traditional ivory tone.
Champagne — warmer still, with a soft golden tone. Pairs well with champagne, blush or warm-ivory gowns.
This style is offered in ivory only — a warm, creamy shade best suited to gowns with a soft or traditional ivory tone.
Off-white is shown alongside in the image for reference, so you can see how ivory compares.

If you are still not sure you can order samples; compare them in natural light against your dress.

"The Catalina is our ode to lace — wide, soft, and endlessly romantic. It's for the bride who wants her veil to be remembered." — Sarah, Founder
Mantilla veils sit just back from the hairline or at the crown of the head with a hand-sewn comb securing underneath the lace. Unlike gathered veils, mantillas drape naturally without pleating for an authentic Spanish silhouette. For detailed guidance, read our wedding veil guide.
Yes, add the Catalina to your bag then select from our veil personalisation collection. You can add initials, wedding dates, handwriting, flowers and more custom embroidery to make your veil uniquely yours.
Proper storage preserves your veil's French eyelash lace for years to come. Our veil bag and hanging clip provides ideal storage, keeping the lace smooth and protected from snags.
Silk-style tulle has a more luxurious drape and softer feel than standard tulle, creating that fluid, weightless quality. You can order silk style tulle samples to feel the difference and choose between off white or ivory.
The Catalina's timeless Spanish-inspired design and premium French lace makes it perfect for anniversaries, religious ceremonies, or special celebrations throughout your marriage. If you have questions about specifications, please get in touch before ordering.
