In a Christian wedding, after the bride and the groom get married (exchange rings, vows, kiss, etc), during the reception, is it obligatory for the bride to wear the veil, or can she indulge in the reception in her wedding trousseau sans the veil? I have read about the significance of the wedding veil. But what about the reception? Surely, dancing with the guests would be a lot less cumbersome if you don’t have the veil, right?
