Does Hailey Bieber’s Veil Have A Typo?

By now, you should know that the wedding between Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin, now Hailey Bieber, finally officially happened.


These two lovers originally wed privately in New York last year but officially celebrated their love with a South Carolina wedding ceremony on September 30th, 2019.

The Bieber wedding was nothing short of exquisite, and the most beautiful part was Hailey’s ceremony gown: a custom Off-White gown and matching veil with the words "till death do us part." 

While her ceremony dress was only one of four that she wore for the soiree, her beautiful Vivienne Westwood minidress for the rehearsal dinner, stunning Ralph & Russo dress for photo booth pictures, and timeless Vera Wang dress for the reception didn’t seem to stir as much media buzz as the ceremonial dress did.

The Off-White custom veil had the words "till death do us part" embroidered on the train. This was a bold fashion moment, however, fans are starting to notice that there may be a mistake with the veil.

One fan wrote on the comments of her picture, “Shouldn’t the word ‘till’ be spelled like ‘til?”. It looks like Hailey might have made a huge grammatical error and in doing so, sparked controversy.

Fans echoed each other’s comments, creating a media frenzy. In response to this outbreak, Gibson Johns, a writer for AOL Entertainment, interjected to help the newlywed out. 


Gibson Johns tweeted: “No, there is not a typo on Hailey Bieber’s wedding dress. That’s not an apostrophe before 'TILL' — it’s a quote mark, and there’s a second one at the end of the phrase. It’s the designer Virgil Abloh’s *thing.* 'TILL' is an acceptable shortening of 'UNTIL.' That is all.”

Another fan, in support of the designer and the newlywed, also tweeted, "Because Till is the correct form, it’s a word, not an abbreviation of Until, they mean the same thing, ‘Til is an abbreviation but not grammatically correct." 

Cased closed. Hailey’s dress is grammatically correct. Thank goodness for that. “Til” and “till” are both acceptable, and the wedding that everyone is talking about also gave us all a grammar lesson.
