The Timeless Practice of the Bridal Veil

16Sep09

One of the oldest bridal traditions is the Bridal Veil. The use of the Bridal Veil is one of the oldest practices during weddings. Along with the oldest bridal customs, wearing a Bridal Veil is still apparent. It still remains valued by brides that the veil is part of the plan when they have their bridal gowns designed. It has been long believed that the veil keeps away the evil spirits to keep her safe until she unites with her husband. Over time, the symbolism of the bride’s virtue is attached to the veil. Her purity and virtue are guaranteed to the husband and his family with the use of the veil. During the ceremony, the meaning of lifting the veil aside from presenting her to the family is letting the groom have possession over his wife.
