Person with veil: dark skin tone Emoji

People

A person with a dark skin tone wearing a white bridal veil over their head. This emoji depicts a classic wedding look traditionally associated with matrimonial ceremonies.

Usage Context

Used to talk about weddings, engagements, or bridal fashion. It is frequently sent when announcing an upcoming marriage or sharing photos of a wedding day. You might see it paired with the 💍 ring or 💒 wedding chapel to set the scene for a celebration.

History

The base emoji was part of the original Unicode set, but the ability to modify skin tones arrived later in 2015 as part of the Unicode 8.0 update. This was a major shift for the platform, as it allowed for better representation across the global user base when expressing personal milestones.
