***PLEASE READ*** This listing is for custom embroidery only, to be cut out and stitched onto an existing veil or other wedding items you already own. This is a great DIY option for brides who've bought a veil already before deciding they want embroidery.

If you want to add embroidery directly to one of our veils and have us stitch it directly onto the new veil for you - no cutting or sewing required on your end and a more seamless finish - see this listing instead: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1067543077/personalised-veil-embroidery-add-on/ and add it, and one of our veil designs, to your basket together.

Please also note: Personalised embroidery is currently taking 2-3 weeks and is not available on our Rush Veil Service.

DETAILS
Beautiful, personalised embroidery for your wedding veil. Make it one-of-a-kind and really get your guests talking

INSPIRATION
We have absolutely LOADS of work-in-progress and Real Bride pics of our embroidery work over on our Instagram @theweddingveilshop. Give us a follow while you’re there!

QUALITY
Please note: this is REAL, stitched embroidery in a gorgeous silky thread, NOT a heat press or iron-on transfer as on other listings!

INSTRUCTIONS
Cut out the letters and keep joined-up letter sections in one piece. Leave a little bit of tulle around each section/letter so the stitches don't unravel. Stitch on with invisible thread (available on amazon) and a hand sewing needle. A few light tacking stitches will suffice as the embroidery is very lightweight.

EMBROIDERED VEIL OPTIONS
We have three beautiful embroidery fonts you can choose from within this product: An elegant script font, a signature style script font and a simple serif font. There are examples of all the fonts in both monogram and full name designs and with and without dates, in the gallery.

1. ELEGANT FONT (see example image)
A gorgeous calligraphy script font in a very elegant style. Ideal for both monograms and longer phrases.

2. SIGNATURE FONT (see example image)
A more freestyle signature script font that looks gorgeous on couple names.

3. SIMPLE FONT (see example image)
An understated typewriter-style font. A great option if you’re looking for something subtle and less decorative than a script font.

3a. DATE FONT
The date font we use will be the same as our simple font above, just smaller.

4. TIMELESS FONT (see example image)
Similar to the signature font but elongated widthways. Perfect if you want the phrase to take up more space around the base curve of the veil

5. CALLIGRAPHY FONT (see example image)
With elaborate, decorative capital letters, perfect for monograms.

6. GOTHIC FONT (see example image)
An old English, medieval style font. A bold design with decorative accents perfect for the classic "Till death do us part" phrase!

7. BLOCK FONT
A block capital font - (it's actually just the simple font capitalised!) perfect for really making a statement.

COLOUR
The thread we use for the embroidery is a nice Pale Ivory shade that goes with our Pale Ivory veils perfectly.

LETTER SIZES
Letter sizing will depend on the font you choose (see options below). We use the height of the font's capital letters for the height measurements, lowercase letters will naturally be smaller - although there’s much less of a difference in height between upper and lowercase letters with the simple font.

Signature font - around 4.5" (approx. 11.5cm) tall capital letters.

Elegant font - around 3.5" (approx. 8.5cm) tall capital letters.

Timeless font - around 3.5" (approx. 8.5cm) tall capital letters.

Calligraphy font - around 3" (approx. 7.5cm) tall capital letters.

Simple Font - around 2" (approx. 11.5cm) tall capital letters.

Gothic Font - around 3” (approx. 7.5cm) tall capital letters.

BLOCK Font - around 4” (approx. 10cm) tall - all capital letters

The date font in all cases will be just under 1 inch (approx. 2cm) tall.

EXTRA OPTIONS
We can also offer custom font options, handwriting recreation and some small images and symbols, but for that, you’d need to get in touch with us to discuss your ideas for an embroidered veil. 🥰
