Separate veil from background

Is it possible mask out the background behind a bride's see-through veil while retaining the veil?  Photo sample attached.  Thanks you,

Kevin

I should have inserted the photo in the body:

remove red planks but keep veil?

I think that would be very hard to do given the wall panels dark color darker seams and the white post.

Some things you would like to do in Photoshop will not be possible.

You might be able to remove the panel seams and change its color. You  are not going to separate the veil from the background. The wall is behind the veil the you want to keep its not masking out the wall. you can see the wall through the veil

Thanks JJ Mack.  I took the photo to AE and used Red Giant primatte keyer than back to photoshop to clone veil where white planks were.  Like you say, not perfect but enough to get the job done!
