How to convince my future wife to wear a veil for the wedding?

Congratulations! I think it would look fine if only one of you was wearing a veil. I mean I wish you luck on convincing her, but if she really can't be persuaded I don't think it will negatively effect the look of the wedding. lots of bride's don't wear veils. I don't plan to wear one. You might have better luck convincing her to wear a decorative hair comb or a head band.

Let it go, there are so many other things to worry about. If she doesn't want a veil so what. Many brides are choosing not to wear a veil or blusher. If you are focusing on this then you are losing sight of the importance of getting married.... again I say let it go!

Yuck! Why on earth woudl either of you, especially you two, want to wear a veil? Are you really aware of the tradition behind them? Can't believe you'd want to buy into any part of the patriarchy induced symbolism involved.

If she doesn't want to wear a veil, do not try to force her. Many woman look beautiful on their wedding day without a veil. Best wishes!

Why would you want to convince her to do something she doesn't want and will not be an issue unless you make it one? It is her wedding too so she should have it the way she wants also. Did she tell you not to wear the veil?

You don't. You've made your request, she doesn't feel comfortable with the idea. Leave it at that. It's important that SHE thinks she looks good on her Wedding Day. If she feels the veil will make her look bad, she shouldn't wear it.

Not to be rude, but ewww, Lesbian? I know it is your sexuality, so it is your choice. So for you, I will just answer your question. Oh and Congrats!! But you could get her to wear a birdcage veil. If you have ever seen Katy Perry's Music Video Hot N Cold, it is the Marriage scene. Or just let her be her.

You can not get a women to wear something they believe they do not look good in

You can not get her to wear a veil

How about a birdcage veil?

It's a veil, but it short

A lot of brides wear birdcage veils

This may be the middle grown

If she does not think she look silly, she may wear it

It's one day of her life. If she can't do this one thing, then how can the marriage work out with the bigger issues later on? I think that if she doesn't want to wear it for the ceremony she could at least put it on for the pictures. Maybe if you both go to the store and she tries it one she might like how it looks.

So you want your future wife to feel ridiculous on her wedding day?

Please remember that you care for this person and forcing her to do something she doesn't want to do is not ok. Don't you want her to be comfortable and happy? Especially on her wedding day?? What if she insisted you wear something you weren't comfortable in?
