A few weeks ago I was asked by Enigma for inspiration on wedding nails after I did a gel manicure for a friend of mine who had a family wedding. I was recompiling my nail art portfolio last week so now it is easier for me to show you pictures of different designs. You can always adapt the designs to suit the length of your nails. Generally, I think that wedding nails should be kept simple and elegant be it for the bride and the guests as well.
Although it is important to do an extra effort on your wedding day to make sure you are all dolled up, the nails are a small area of the body and therefore, they shouldn't take centre stage and overcome the dress and the make-up. In fact, some brides prefer a simple nude manicure. However, here are some ideas and tips for wedding nail art for those who so desire!
For the bride, I personally like to keep the colour palette limited, say a french manicure with a pearly finish (pearl white, pearl gold, pearl pink & pearl lilac are all great choices) and then you can embellish the nails with a pretty delicate design to match your bouquet or bride's maids dresses for example. For the more traditional brides, you can opt for a classic french manicure with the typical white tip or an ever chic red manicure. Obviously, you also have to take in consideration the time of day the wedding will take place. As a general rule, choose lighter colours for day weddings and deeper shades for evening weddings. This is especially important if you are going for the red manicure.
Anyways, onto the pictures so you can see some designs and maybe get inspired! I have also included some nail art that can be done for wedding guests, mothers of the bride & groom and bride's maids. I also included different shades of red nail polish.
