A traditional accessory worn by the bride during a wedding ceremony. It is a piece of fabric that is draped over the bride's head and face, and it is typically worn with a wedding dress. Bridal veils come in a variety of styles and lengths, ranging from short and simple to long and elaborate. Some popular styles include the classic cathedral veil, which extends beyond the length of the wedding dress, the fingertip veil, which falls to the bride's waist, and the birdcage veil, which covers only part of the face.
