Wedding Nail Colors

Frequently asked questions

What are the most popular wedding nail colors?

Soft pinks, sheer nudes, ivory, and pearl finishes lead for brides - shades that glow in photos, flatter every dress, and still look right at the anniversary dinner slideshow.

Should bridesmaids' nails match the bride's?

They don't have to match - coordinating in the same family (all soft neutrals, or shades pulled from the palette) photographs beautifully without being uniform.

When should I do my wedding manicure?

One to two days before the wedding - fresh enough to be flawless, with enough time for polish to fully harden before the ring close-ups.

What finish photographs best for weddings?

Sheer, creamy, and pearl finishes photograph most reliably - they catch soft light without the glare spots glitter can throw in flash photography.
