A wedding dress feature is the TRAIN and VEIL. The TRAIN is a long piece of fabric that extends from the back of the dress and trails behind the bride as she walks down the aisle. The VEIL is a sheer fabric that is draped over the bride's head and face, usually held in place by a tiara or other headpiece. Both the TRAIN and VEIL are traditional elements of a wedding dress and are often used to add a touch of elegance and romance to the ceremony.
