Actually, I don't know where the veil ends and the train begins or
whether they are the same. What you see hanging from the ceiling does
have a shorter part that's a veil for the face. But I can't say if the
entire thing is rightfully called a veil or a train. I just takes the
pitchers. :-)
Mother of the bride was very pleased with this shot and it now hangs as
a 10x15 in the house. She was also pleased that it included the
portrait on the wall above the fireplace. It's a 19th century painting
of a (then) young great-grandmother who plays some greater significance
in the context of this wedding than most great-grandmothers would.
