the why behind
Vinyl & Veil.
A timeless piece - a forever story.
Jossa Henson collided with bridal for the first time while planning her own wedding. If you ask bridal professionals how they found themselves intertwined with the bridal business, you typically get one of two answers:
​
1. They loved planning their wedding.
2. They hated planning their wedding.
​
Fortunately, Jossa found love in nearly every step of her wedding planning- except her bridal veil. She always knew she wanted a veil, but being placed with the decision came with an overwhelming sense of confusion.
​
What would match the gown?
She can't even see the back of her head - how does it look?
Is the color right? How is there a 'right' color?
Is it supposed to cover the face?
Where on her head would she put it? Who would put it on?
​
Jossa now owns a bridal boutique in Plano, Texas, and was happily wed in 2019. And yes, she wore a veil. And her mission now? Help brides find their perfect gown in Texas, and help countless others find their perfect veil across the nation.
the heart behind
Vinyl & Veil.
The mission behind what we do.
Our goal? Make purchasing your veil a fun, interactive, and exciting part of your wedding story. We do so in the following ways:
1. Understand that (nearly) everything is preference.
Yes, the veil has history and traditions behind it.
Yes, most brides want the veil to 'match' their gown.
And yes, veils are still worn by a majority of brides getting married.
​
But at the end of the day, your veil should be a reflection of you, which means it is your decision! Our goal here is to help provide information around things like color, length, trim, and trends, but just between us? There really isn't a 'right' veil, just 'your' veil!
2. If details matter to you, we've got you covered.
We understand that buying a bridal veil online can be hard, but we're here to help make it easy! Choosing a veil comes down to the details behind the veil- the length, color, trim, width, material, and weight, just to name a few!
​
Every veil listed on our site will include as many details as we can think to offer, but if you would like further assistance, just shoot us an email and we would love to help provide styling assistance!
3. We're not robots, so ask for help.
Want to see a photo of your two favorite veils next to each other? Or see if we can find a photo of a veil you love in a different length? Maybe want to see the veil on a mannequin with a bridal gown similar to yours? We can make that happen.
We are a small business with a big heart and understand that every bride will process purchasing their wedding accessories differently. If we can help in any way, please reach out to see what we can do, and we will try our best!
