How to care for your veil
Steam is the best way to remove wrinkles and soften the veil!
Upon receiving your veil, carefully unfold it and hang from the center of the comb- by clipping the comb on a hanger, using your own clip or one of our Veil Clips. (For long drop veils, keep the veil lying flat or draped over a hanger with as few folds as possible). If your wedding is soon approaching (less than a month or two) keep the veil hanging so that the folds, wrinkles, or creases from shipping may fall out of the material. The longer it hangs, the more the wrinkles will naturally fall out. We suggest protecting your veil from dust by placing it inside a Protective Garment Bag, or by gently covering it with a cotton pillowcase or sheet (you'll need to cut a small hole in the center for the hanger to come through).
Hang your veil in an uncrowned closet where the temperature will remain moderate until you are ready to wear it. Keep your veil out of the reach of curious pets. Let the veil completely cool before moving it. Do not attempt to iron your veil. You will risk melting the delicate materials it is made from. If the iron is too hot it will melt the material upon first touch.
To soften up the veil after shipping, and for hard to remove wrinkles: Veils may be steamed with a home steamer or by a professional (make sure to caution of any embellishments- these will be fine- they just need a little extra care by letting the veil completely cool before shaking or moving too much). Do not apply an iron to your veil.
If you are getting your wedding dress altered and pressed, a good seamstress should have no problem steaming any wrinkles out of your veil at the same time. You can also take your veil to a dry cleaner for steaming. Or you may even wish to hang your veil in the bathroom while running a hot steamy shower and leave in there for about 5 to 10 minutes and wrinkles come out like magic!
