Candi designed the most perfect veil for me at a super reasonable price. She is a joy to work with and truly wants to make her brides happy.Fortunately, I was able to meet Candi in person. I met with her twice, and I always left her house smiling. She gives you ideas of what she thinks would look good, but ultimately leaves the decision up to you. She is happy to do whatever you want. Candi's vision for my veil was perfect, and she executed it perfectly. She made the veil in less than a week! I cannot wait to wear it!

Candi is the sweetest vendor you will meet. She not only provides extremely professional service but also an extremely competitive price. Candi met with me on quite a few occasions and she was always willing to go above and beyond the call of duty. My veil is extra, extra long and with a lot of applique details and it was all customized to fit my dress and my vision. She was more than willing to make modifications that came to mind after I had already picked up the veil and the result was a creation that I believe is going to be the show stopper at the ceremony. I am so lucky to have found her, especially since the bridal salon where I purchased my dress was going to charge me an arm and a leg for the veil I was envisioning. I would recommend Candi to anyone looking for a veil no matter how simple or detailed it is, she will work with you to get the veil of your dreams!

I really cannot say enough amazing things about my experience with Candi. She was helpful in guiding me through the COMPLETELY overwhelming process of selecting a veil that would compliment my dress. I sent her pictures, she showed me options and made recommendations based on what I was looking for. Did I mention that this was all via email? Her service cannot be beat. I got a beautiful veil for an EXTREMELY reasonable price and didn't end up feeling regret for overspending on an accessory.
Definitely consider Candi as an option for your veil provider before shelling out major $$ to a bridal store.
Highly recommended!

If I could provide higher ratings across the board I would! Candi is such a talented individual and provides an unmatched warmth and genuine interest in providing a quality product. She used lace from my mother's wedding dress, tea-dyed a sample, and mailed it to me for approval before she continued with my cathedral-length veil. She has given me a priceless and custom heirloom that I will cherish forever and for an incredibly affordable price! Believe me, you will NOT be disappointed! : )

First I have to say, that I love Candi Merle of Crowning Glory Designs. I've looked for a perfect matching veil for my Pronovias lace dress but I can't find anything on th internet shops or in the bridal stores. So I googled for a tailor that is specialized in custom made veils. In Germany I found no one - horrible I thought at this moment. But then I searched in the USA for a tailor and then - whamm - I found a review about Candi, how georgous he were. I wrote to her and I get an answer within 1 day - great deal. I told her my problems and she send me 10 different lace edges and I found the one matches my dress perfectly. I ordered an hiplenght Mantilla veil with Alencon lace all over the edge. The veil costs only 90 $ + 45 $ shipping cost (good price for shipping to Germany). Within 10 days I got my dream veil and I really LOVE it. I have post pictures in my bio - have a look - it will be worth it. I really can say highly recommended for those who want to save money and still want to get the best they look for. Do it!

Candi is absolutely amazing!!!!
I sent her an email with the design that I had in mind and when we met at her home, she already knew exactly what I wanted. She was such a blessing and an encouragement during, what can be, a stressful time and I had a great experience working with her.
My veil turned out wonderful and her pricing is unbelievable. She isn't there rip anyone off... she wants to create the perfect veil for you on your special day.
Don't second guess it... Meet with Candi before you buy from a bridal store!! You won't regret it.

I met with Candi to order my veil and she was so sweet and helpful! I ended up going with a chapel length, single tier, extra full veil with satin edging. It really helped me to be able to try on the samples that she had available so I could physically see what the different edgings looked like. I ordered the veil the day that I met with her and the veil came just a few days later. I couldn't believe how quick her turnaround time was and the veil was in perfect condition. Her prices are very reasonable as well. The same veil that I ordered through Candi would have been at least triple the price in a bridal salon. I highly recommend Candi to anyone looking for a beautiful veil without the bridal salon price tag!

I was extremely impressed with Crowning Glory Designs. I was referred by my cousin who had a veil made for her wedding. She helped me make my decisions quickly and easily. She knew exactly what she was doing. It was very easy to reach her, and she was quick with her work. Even though she worked quickly the quality did not suffer. I had a beautiful veil that fit my needs and wants perfectly.

I love Candi and the veil she made for me. I knew the cost of my wedding would be growing, so to save even a few hundred dollars helped me feel better. Not only is it a great price, the product is beautiful. In addition, the turn around time for her to create your customized veil is awesome!!
Candi will work with you to create what you want. She's also a genuine person, which was important to me and my husband as we chose all our vendors. I think anyone who has access to her should use her!!

I received the most beautiful and one-of-a-kind veil from Candi. It's something I will frame and preserve.
During my first visit to her home office, she had me try on several types of veils. She looked at photos of my wedding dress, asked about my venue and my personal style, and then made a couple of recommendations. I chose a simple two-layer veil with a some beading and no trim. Although more embellishments would add to the cost of the veil, I never felt Candi pressure or encourage me to order a more expensive veil. Her recommendations were focused on my style!
Candi worked very quickly, and I received my veil earlier than I expected. Candi is a wonderful person to work with! Thank you!

I knew I was NOT going to spend $400+ for a veil at the bridal salon,so I turned to PW. Luckily Candi was another great find. When I met with her she was extremely welcoming. She educated me on all of the different types of veils that I could choose from, along with choices of lace. Who knew that there were so many?! I sure didn't. We discussed ideas in terms of what I wanted. My dress had not come in yet, so I was armed with a photo only! I decided on a 42inch fingertip veil, with 1.5'' of lace. Most mantillas that I had seen up until that point had very thick lace. I decided I did not want this, since I thought something that thick would take away from my dress. Candi gave me options on the type of lace I could pick. It was nice to see options in all price ranges. It took about 1.5 weeks for my veil to be completed. I was extremely happy with the price ( <$100) and the quality of it. Thank you Candi for making my "dream veil".

Candi was a pleasure to work with. She had many styles of lace to choose from for my vail, and was also able to show me many examples of vails she had made in the past. Her prices were extremely reasonable and it was completed in a very timely manner. I would recommend Candi to any bride!
