Wedding nails?

[BirthdayKake]

What's everyone having/what did you have? Would love to see photos. Wedding in 9 days and still very undecided!

I like these nails, will go with my dress
Not definitely sure yet
Have a look on Pinterest

I like the bronze colour but with the light gold I think it's a bit Christmasy for some reason. That shape might be in ( or not, I am not a nails person) but it looks quite sharp and aggressive for a wedding.
I'd have snagged my dress within 5 minutes on those.

I had red nails, with a gold sparkly ring finger nail (so DH knew which finger to put my ring on!) The colours matched our colour theme.

I'm not sure if I love or hate the tacktastic bronze ones 😂

I had a slighty pink French manicure with a tiny bit of sparkle in it. My ring finger and the same finger on the other hand had a petal/leaf design in white. I'll see if I can find a photo

Pink sparly bit was like this

I can't remember whether I had natural nails or clear coat/light pink. Every day nails basically. Anything more looks naff with formal clothes. You can only get away with colourful nails as a bride if you are going for a nontraditional, casual look. Ideally in a colour to compliment your brightly coloured suede shoes. What are you wearing for your wedding OP?

I had gel silk wraps (I think this is what they're called!) basically they built them up with gel which solidified; and had an ombre French mani look. Pic attached, they're still going strong 15 days on!

Think anything other than natural or neutral looks tacky

Classic 90s square tipped /rounded off French manicure. I got married last August. 😂

Those bronze ones are erm, not to my taste for any event at any time. The colour makes them look unclean. Sorry.

Here's my new nails
As you can see, I like shiny

Checking in for inspiration. Know I need to do something about my nails for my wedding this year but I’ve never had a manicure so totally clueless.

These were mine. I have my nails done constantly and these are my most commented ones. They were gorgeous

These were mine, it’s a colour i’ve had a couple of times before.

I’m getting married in October & am currently trialling my wedding gel polish - it’s Cuccio Nude A Tude & is a lovely nude beige pink with a very, very subtle shimmer. Am super pale so if I go for anything too white I can look ghostly

Essie ballet slippers on shortish squareish nails.

Cannot go wrong with this.

Long nails beds (takes work with oil/remover)

A natural nude to warm up skin tone, preferably in Gel

Filed squoval with the nail ending at the fingertip

Yes Cheshire. Great taste!

Yes from me too Cheshire. That's the ONLY shape!

These were mine. The colour theme was purple

Short and square with Fedora which is my staple black red.

Everything else I had on was so different to everyday me, I felt something had to be normal me!

Very much love Cheshire's though!

@cheshireagain What do you mean, long nail beds take work? My nail beds are practically circular, it's so annoying. Can they be changed?!

@RuleBreaker some people are blessed with lovely deep nail beds.

If you're not, you can certainly improve them.

Apply cuticle oil before bed and gently push cuticles back with a cuticle "pusher".

You can use a cuticle remover cream and cuticle scissors and cut away dead skin every fortnight.

A good manicurist using traditional (more time consuming) methods will do this for you.

So many horrible salons now just blitz them off with an electronic file xx

Mine, the day after (a month ago today!)

I went bright pink! And on toes!
