Fiona Birt, $5 Veil (PEOPLE 2023)

Camilla waited 24 years to get married to her love and the father of her two teenage children; her career always came first. Three years ago, they finally decided to take their vows, and the day was set. But unexpected Covid lockdowns meant her parents were unable to travel from Copenhagen and wedding plans went on hold. By 2022, it had been pared down to become a very low-key event and Camilla had no plans to wear a veil. However, after the ceremony, Danish tradition has each female guest cut a piece of the veil to keep as good luck. So Camilla went shopping at the local opportunity shops and found her lucky $5 veil.
