A fuel nozzle includes a swirler assembly including a radially inner surface and a radially outer surface, a plurality of vanes coupled to the swirler assembly radially outer surface. Each vane includes a first sidewall and a second sidewall, the first and second sidewalls are joined at a leading edge and at an axially-spaced trailing edge, and a plurality of openings are formed through each respective vane. Each opening extends from the leading edge to the passage to define a flow passage that extends from the passage to the leading edge. A method for fabricating a fuel nozzle assembly is also described.
