Short answer
No, you do not need veil weights for an indoor wedding, but they can help if your veil is long and you are worried about it shifting.
Veil weights are small magnets or weights sewn into the hem of a veil to keep it in place, especially in windy outdoor conditions. Indoors, the risk of wind is low, so weights are usually unnecessary. However, they can still be useful if you are walking on a slippery floor, up stairs, or if your veil is very long and you want it to drape neatly. Weights also help if you are dancing and do not want the veil to fly up. They are discreet and can be added by a seamstress or with a simple DIY kit. If you are having an indoor ceremony in a large hall with air conditioning or open doors, a light breeze might still catch the veil. In that case, weights give you peace of mind. But they are not a must. Many people wear long veils indoors without any issue. The main thing is to practise walking with your veil before the day. If it feels secure, you are fine. If it slides or bunches, consider weights or a different attachment. You can also ask your bridal party to help adjust it before photos. Weights are cheap and easy to remove, so you can try them and decide.
