Introducing VEIL Issue Two. In this issue we return to our underlying question: not how people marry, but why they continue to.

This issue moves further into the world we set out to map. We bring you exclusive shoots, conversations with world-class planners and photographers working at the top of their field, and stories from international contributors who have spent their lives close to the business of love. As ever, we are drawn to the people behind the scenes, the ones whose names rarely appear on the day but whose hands shape every part of it.

Alongside them, the couples. The love stories that anchor every issue, told with the care of those who have trusted us with their most precious moments. VEIL remains a magazine about ritual, romance and modern matrimony, and about the things that sit in between and beyond all three. It taps into what connects us, and what it means to be human.

VEIL is printed biannually. Issue Two comprises two separate covers. You cannot choose which cover you will receive when purchasing.
