My best friend's wedding is coming up at the end of August, and I'm going to be a bridesmaid. I'm getting so excited for her as the day gets closer!
We all went shopping together a couple of months ago for bridemaid dresses and accessories — my friend, her sister (the maid of honor), her other bridesmaid, and me. I picked out my dress, and I'm very happy with it — but now I need to start thinking about things such as shoes, jewelry, and hair accessories!
My friend also needs to find a veil she likes with her dress. I told her that, believe it or not, when I got married I found my veil on eBay — or at least, the lady who made my veil. I had a vintage 1920s dress and had located a vintage wax flower wreath to go with it, so I wanted to be sure to find someone who specialized in vintage veils. This seller had a great mantilla veil for sale on eBay, but what really got my attention was her work restoring and replicating vintage veils.
Of course, my friend isn't going that route — she has a beautiful modern dress and would like to find a wedding tiara and veil to go with it. But I have great faith in my veil lady — after the beautiful veil she made for me, I seriously believe this woman can do almost anything!

When I got married I bought everything over the internet. Of course I was planning my wedding from another country, but that's what the internet allows buyers to do. Good luck with your friends wedding, sounds like you're being a great bridesmaid!
