Sometimes a veil doesn't work for the ceremony site.  On more than one occasion I have seen a veil cover the Bride's face on a breezy day or the veil just blow off as a result  of a strong wind.  So, if a veil may not work for your ceremony site, consider an eye-catching hair comb.

This is what "walking down the aisle" looks like when you get married "on the beach.

Some beaches have wooden walkways, some beaches have paved walkways
 and some beaches have sand walkways.
