should you were a medora (head gear) on your wedding day?

Question

if i chose not to wear a medora and instead wear a veil which covers the hair at my wedding would this be considered inappropriate?

Muslims are required to abstain from such blind emulation. A Muslim woman is required to conceal her entire to conceal her entire body from the gaze of strangers.

Your question is a bit unclear. Kindly rephrase and resubmit.
