Getting married soon? Here are the last steps for your perfect wrinkle-free wedding veil.
Many brides (and bridesmaids ;)) know the problem: the wedding veil made of fine fabric quickly gets wrinkles. But no problem: here you can find out with which tips & tricks you can get your wedding veil wrinkle-free without damaging it.
Hack 1) Let's get steamy with a steam iron
Probably the safest method to get your wedding veil wrinkle-free is to steam it with a steam iron. Tip: Depending on the veil model, let the heavier wire comb or the heavier edge hang down.
- Use a steamer and hold it about 10-15cm away from the fabric.
- Ideally, there is a wall, door, or other barrier behind the tulle so that the steam does not escape directly.
- Move over the veil in slow, circular motions, gently stretching the fabric.
- Simply let the steam gently pull through the tulle – done.
With this method, our wedding veil cape LAUKAI on the cover picture is currently being prepared.
Hack 2) Two in one – showering and steaming at the same time
If your bathroom allows it (and you are a hot showerer), this is also a safe method to smooth your wedding veil. Tip: Here again, let the heavier part of the veil hang down.
- Hang the veil on a wide hanger in your bathroom – don't forget to close the door.
- Take a hot shower and enjoy the steam around you and the veil.
- After 15-20 minutes, the fabric should have visibly smoothed out.
- Simply leave it hanging overnight until it is dry.
Hack 3) No steam, no problem – ironing with a delicate touch
If you don't have a steamer at hand, an iron also works. With a little finesse and a thin cotton cloth, e.g. a tea towel over the veil, you can simply iron it like other clothes. Tip: For wedding veils with embroidery or pearls, we recommend the first two options, for veils made of pleated fabric we recommend option 2.
- Set your iron to the lowest temperature
- Place a thin cotton cloth between the veil and the iron
- Gently iron over it in circular motions – done
We wish you so much fun on this great day!
