Choosing your veil colour

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.

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

Description

'Siena' is a breathtaking all-over lace mantilla wedding veil with delicate eyelash lace edge. Handmade in Bath, this highly romantic design offers versatile styling—draped gracefully over the head in a traditional Spanish mantilla style, or pinned elegantly at the back of the head. A vintage-inspired, heirloom piece crafted to be treasured for generations to come.

  • Versatile styling — wear flawlessly at the back of the head or traditionally draped mantilla style, with the delicately scalloped lace framing your face..
  • Exquisite all-over floral lace creates a seamless, richly textured statement from the crown all the way down to the train.
  • Streamlined silhouette — designed at a slightly narrower 140cm width (compared to our standard 183cm) to allow the lace pattern to drape beautifully without overwhelming your dress
  • Barely there design with no gather, attached to a secure comb for comfortable wear.

How do you wear a mantilla wedding veil?

The 'Siena' offers two beautiful styling options. You can wear it traditionally at the back of your head, or in mantilla style with the comb positioned at the crown so the delicate lace frames your face. For more styling advice, please read our wedding veil guide or get in touch.

What lace edge does the Siena veil have?

The 'Siena' features our Siena lace edging all the way around the veil, creating an elegant border. This delicate lace edge adds subtle detail whilst maintaining the barely there aesthetic. You can view samples to see the beautiful texture and quality of our lace trims.

Can I personalise my mantilla wedding veil?

Yes, you can personalise the 'Siena' veil with your wedding date and initials through embroidery. This adds a meaningful touch that makes your veil uniquely yours. For all available options, please see our veil embroidery add ons.

How should I store my lace wedding veil after the wedding?

Proper storage is essential for preserving your handmade veil for years to come. We recommend storing it flat or hanging it properly to prevent creasing of the delicate lace edge. If you need storage solutions, please see our veil bag and hanging clip designed specifically for lace veils.

What makes Britten Weddings veils special?

All our veils are entirely handmade in Bath by one skilled artisan, ensuring exceptional quality and attention to detail. Each 'Siena' veil is crafted from all over lace with hand-applied lace edging. This individual approach means your veil is a true work of craftsmanship that will remain beautiful for generations.
