For your actual wedding, you might already have a whole Pinterest board assigned to nail ideas. But don’t forget you’ll be flashing that bling in a ton of shots at the various events that lead up to your nuptials, too. I’ve done some digging to find my favorite in nail trends that are maybe a tad gratuitous, but plenty fun. You might choose to go super-classic for your big day like I did, but no one said you can’t have some nail art adventures in the months and weeks leading up!
Engagement Party
He’s just put a ring on it! Woo! Bling it up with your nails to add some zest to those Instagram shots at the engagement soiree. Chunky, sparkly, glitzy, super-shiny, anything goes. A classic pale pink or lavender is lovely, but I adore the idea of amping up the shine factor. #blingsthething
Bridal Shower
The women who love you the most have gathered to celebrate your new life with the man of your dreams and shower you with gifts and good tidings. I love a feminine theme for the dress and accessories — same goes for nail art. #sweetandchic
And, okay, while we’re on the subject…
If you do choose to glam it up for your big day, draw on tradition but add some modern touches. I love a chic something blue, a lace pattern, or a neutral with extra interest like some glitter. Have fun and remember — the pictures will last forever, so try not to go too crazy-trendy. #keepitclassy
