    My colors are light pink & light yellow, so I'm thinking of doing a light pink for my nails. But wasn't sure about my toe-nails because the shoes I'm wearing are a very pale pink color.

    What color are you painting your nails?

    I'm a big proponent of matching my finger nails with my toes.  I don't know why but I can't be mismatched.  I think light pink will be really nice.  You don't want anything that will stand out too much, in photos or in person, ya know?  I think I'm doing a really pale pink.  Like the french manicure pink without the white line.  Assuming I don't break my nails I'm not going to do tips either.  I'm more of a natural girl :)

    @jennifer: I'm more of a natural girl, & I definitely agree with you on the matching toes & nails. If I decided not to go with the pale pink, I might choose a light white color or something along those lines. I'm just not that into french manicures & whatnot.

    I'll probably wear OPI's Cosmonot tonight.  It's a champagne/pink color. I really like it.

    Very neutral!  Maybe one of OPIs wedding colors, or maybe even my favorite, Samoan Sand :o)

    I have fake nails, so they will just be tipped in white with a possible smile line. My toes aren't going to show, but I will still probably paint them the same color my BMs are going too, a grey.

    A part of me wants RED nails. But I think it will pop too much in photos, and FI don't like it. I'll probably go for a light shade of pink or pearly white.

    I'll be painting my nails in burgundy, which is my favorite color and our main wedding color. My shoes are closed-toe so I won't be doing anything special with my toenails.

    I"m going with this but keep in mind that they will be shorter...the back ground will be a pearly white like the toe design and the flowers will be red with black accents...the glitter and gems will be silver .

    I'm getting my toes just like the picHow are you planning on doing your nails for your wedding? :  wedding Nails

    I'm with those who said a light pink.  My makeup is going to be very light and natural on my wedding day (as I always like to keep it), and my toes and fingernails will match. Either a very light pink or no polish at all, just manicured and buffed.

    I might just go with manicured and buffed. My mum has this buffer that brings out the natural oils in your nails so it looks like you're wearing a lovely clear polish that stays for a few weeks. So I might do that. If I do decide to go with polish it'll be a very pale pink.

    I can't decide! Great topic to start!

    My shoes are a grape color... so I thought about maybe having my fingernails purple. I don't want to have fake nails put on, because I don't want to keep up with them! So I've also thought about maybe doing a french mani/pedi because of the purple shoes. So many decisions!

    Wow! MsMonicka - I have never seen anything like that!  Talk about bling!

    @Lees: I think a pale pink would look lovely with your ensemble.    I am also a fan of the classic french manicure and pedicure - that is what I did.

    I will probably have a french mani (no fake tips, just paint) or this really pretty dusty purple color from MAC

    I hate painted toenails so I won't be worrying about them ;)

    I had a light pink. It was eith OPI's Heartthrob or Pinking of You. I interchange them depending on what the salon has in. I have silk wraps that look very natural. My toes were a sort of fushia color that went with my honeymoon stuff since you couldn't see my toes under my gown and their wasn't time for a new pedi before the honeymoon.

    I did light pink fingernails. My toenails were my "something blue" - I like royal blue for casual summertime pedicures, and my feet were totally hidden under a big ballgown skirt, so it's not like they could scandalize great auntie so and so.

    I'll probably do silver and both my fingers and toes. That's the color I wear most often and will go great with my dress and accessories.

    I'll probably do a dark burgundy on my fingers and toes, to match our primary wedding color and the bridesmaids' dresses. Pretty much the same color I always wear, I definitely know I like it.

    I will be getting a mani and pedi done the day before probably.  Plan on just using a light pink color on my nails, or a champagne color.  But will then be using nail decals to give them that extra little something.  Just havent been able to decide which one yet, the sight I am looking at has over 5000 designs, so the options are limitless.  You can check them at at www.endlessnails.com they will even make them to fit toe nails

    Has anyone used a really bold color for their fingernails? I was thinking about going with a royal blue or orange since those are both part of our colors.
