Veil Facts

Here are some interesting Veil Facts from various sources around the web:

- The veil was yellow in ancient Greece and red in ancient Rome and usually shrouded the bride from head to foot.

- The bridal veil protected her purity on her wedding day

- It kept the bride from being hexed by jealous spinster-witches in the village. (You know who you are!)

- A woman had to cover her face so her husband wouldn't be killed for her beauty.

- An old veil is luckier than a new one -- and that luckiest of all is a borrowed veil, especially from someone who has been happily married.
