As iconic as they are classic, long wedding veils are an excellent choice for brides wishing to leave an impression on their special day. Picture delicate tulle fabric flowing from the top of a bride’s head and trailing behind her (along with her dress’s train) while walking along the aisle. Nothing speaks elegance and extravagance more than such tulle veils.
Long veils aren’t easy to make, owing to the vast amount of materials and time required. Because of this, it’s important to trust such a daunting task to a veil designer who’s more than capable and willing to take the challenge.
Madame Tulle’s track record of creating tailor-made, handcrafted wedding veils speaks for itself. Whatever your desired length, width, or design add-ons in mind, our design team can make it a reality. Our veils are more than just pieces in an ensemble – they’re works of art.
Long Veils Send a Statement
Long veils, also called floor-length veils, extend long enough to gather and trail across the floor alongside the train section. When paired with the correct design features and wedding accessories, these veils can be nothing short of magnificent.
Commercially available long veil lengths come in two kinds:
-
Church veils: Also known as chapel veils, these veils reach just enough to touch the ground or slightly beyond the wedding gown's edge. They usually measure up to 2.3 metres long, well beyond the height of an average Australian female.
-
Cathedral veils: The longest commercially available veil is perfect for brides who want to go all out for their wedding. True to their namesake, cathedral-length wedding veils range between 2.74 and 3.05 metres in length.
Apart from these veils, designers like Madame Tulle can also create extra long or custom-length ones. There’s no limit on how long your bridal veil can be, so don’t hesitate to wear your dream veil on your wedding day.
Additionally, with plenty of tulle to work with, long veils can incorporate an array of design add-ons. Have it studded with pearls or Swarovski crystals, or decorate scalloped edges with classic floral pattern lace trim – or both if you’re feeling bold. A well-designed long veil can be the talk of the town (and some wedding forums) for a long time.
Long Veils are the Choice of Celebrities
Having been the symbol of extravagance throughout history, long veils are the choice of many popular figures. You’re probably familiar with the long veils that Kate Middleton or Meghan Markle wore on their royal weddings, both of which continue to inspire generations of brides around the world.
That said, you don’t have to be married into nobility or a star on the silver screen to wear one. Thanks to more efficient ways of creating the required materials and the advantage of getting a designer to make it, crafting a long veil for a bride's wedding attire can be well within a couple-to-be’s budget.

ROSABEL II | Two-tier Lace Edge Veil
Experienced Long Veil Designer in Sydney
With more than a decade of experience creating bespoke wedding veils, Madame Tulle is an excellent choice for a veil designer. Our team has a knack for incorporating vintage and modern trends into every veil we make. But what really sets us apart is our client-focused approach to veil making.
We understand that finding the veil that speaks to you can be quite the hassle. Sometimes, commercially available long veils don’t satisfy the bride’s tastes, let alone suit her. It also doesn’t help that, because they’re widely sold, these veils are less likely to make the bride unique in her own way.
Custom veils are the way to go, something that should be left in the hands of an expert like Madame Tulle. Our commitment to working with top-quality materials and a client-focused design approach will give you nothing short of the wedding veil you desire. After all, a once-a-bride knows well the pains of being one.
Our wedding veils are sold through partner stores across Australia and the world. But if you want a veil you can really call your own, don’t hesitate to contact us. If you happen to be in Sydney, you can drop by our studio in Alexandria.
