mani monday // wedding nails

Happy Mani Monday, everyone!  Now that wedding season is getting underway, I thought I'd re-share some of my favorite wedding-perfect manicures (via Pinterest, of course!). 

Generally-speaking, I love off-the-wall nails with bold colors and experimentation -- but NOT on your wedding day.  I found a lot of over-the-top ideas on Pinterest (just search "wedding nails" and you'll see what I mean) and some of them are borderline acceptable, but for the most part, sticking with soft pink, blush, or peach tones is a good idea, or go with the good old-fashioned French tips.  My only exception to this (aside from a little bit of glitter) is going red.  It's a classic shade and if it fits your wedding and your personality, go for it.


I have mixed feelings about matching nail polish with your wedding colors... what do you think?

  4. Beautiful! I would certainly rather pick any of these looks over a typical manicure. I really love the first three looks, the one with the wedding band is really cute!

  5. I had pink nails for my wedding. They were fucsia. Saying that, I also had a bright, floral print, knee length dress, so I didn't play by the rules at all. My nails matched a pink in my dress. However, I am pretty sure that had I had a white dress, flowers, etc that I would probably have toned down the nails for something more simple. I love the top right image!
