Is it bad to get veneers after braces if you do not plan on wearing a retainer for the rest of your life? (photo)

I don't want to have plastic in my mouth for a lifetime. I want to get braces and then veneers but I worry that if I don't wear a retainer, the teeth will shift back into the original position, and disrupt the veneer. Thoughts?
