Bridal info for NYC
 
I will be getting married in October and I'm looking for bridal hair jewelry. I don't live in NYC, but could get there if someone knew of a place where I could buy something called a bun wrap for my hair on my wedding day. Anyone know of such a place?

Can you give an explaination of what a bun wrap is? There is a website that has all sorts of bridal hair pieces including the one I think that you are talking about - http://www.bridesroom.com/<BR>There is an area in NYC around Lord & Taylor (in the 40's betw. 5th & 6th Avenues) that has alot of bridal supply materials, etc. You may want to try there.

Thanks, Irene for your response. A bun wrap encircles the hair on top of your head. In the 40's means what street specifically? I'm not familiar with NYC.

hi, <BR><BR>the area recommended already is indeed full of shops that sell either premade headpieces, the components to make them yourself, or that custom make them. <BR><BR>i had a tiara and three layer water-fall veil (finger tip length)made at a place called Paul's Veil and Net Corp. it was right by Lord and Taylors...don't know the exact address but certainly you can call 411 and get it. <BR><BR>anyway, it cost me $250, and it was literally exactly what i wanted, down to the fact that i picked out the exact porcelain roses i wanted on it. anything similar was pricing at about $1000 at the bridal shops where i shopped for dresses. <BR><BR>

Paul's Veil and Net is at 28 W. 38th St - it is just off 5th Avenue
