This veil is made from exquisite english netting and is accented with coque and hackle feathers which underlay a very large three petaled swarovski crystal flower. This veil is available in white only and comes mounted on a comb. This veil is worn like a vintage hat and has thin netting that carefully drapes across the eyes. This veil is Haute Couture.




Shown in the two images above is the CastleBride Ella veil. This ultra versatile birdacge veil looks good on all face shapes and lends itself to a number of dress silhouettes and hemlines. This veil is made from fine french netting and is accented with soft chenille dots. The center flower is made of hackle feathers and has a stunning swarovski crystal center flower. This veil is worn at an angle across the face with netting covering the eyes. This veil is featured in our Vintage Couture Collection.

The Knot Magazine: Style Feature


The Knot magazine: Spring 2011 Features a fashion layout with two of our very own CastleBride Couture headpieces! The beautiful Gloria feather hair pick as well as the Reece Veil from our Haute Couture Collection

Meet Real Bride Brooke Locke Jones

This posting brings me a special kind of Joy because when I first met Brooke she was in Junior High with me and we both had braces! Something like 16 years later, Brook has finally met her soul mate Matthew. The two shared a fabulous wedding in Southern California a few months ago. This wedding, which is totally Style Me Pretty inspired is sure to be all over the blogs as the DIY bride's go-to guide. No detail was left out and it was a beautiful and inspirational event!

We had the privilege of making custom hair pieces for not just Brooke but also her flower girls. Oh what a joy to be a part of this fabulous day.

Congratulations Brooke and Matthew!
