    I had mine done in a pale pink. I normally just have my nails buffed- im not big on bright polish on my fingers (toes are a different story though!)

    I always have short nails. I think longer nails look great, but I can't stand the feel of wearing them. I'll just paint my natural nails a light pink.

    I think I'm just doing a medium pink polish on my natural nails.  My favorite is OPI japanese garden.

    I love pink and whites :) I wear them alll the time. I have an issue with chewing my nails and I like to keep them done because imo it looks more polished and clean than chewed on fingers, lol.

    Same here.  I've done LCN manicures regularly for about five years now.  I don't forsee that changing any time soon, so it will probably be the same for the wedding.

    I'm leaning towards a pearly white at the moment. Haven't decided yet whether to go with fake nails...guess I'll have to wait and see what state they're in closer to the day.

    Meh, I probably won't do anything. My nails look nice naturally. It would probably distract me more than anything to have my nails done; I almost never paint them and when I do, I'm thinking "what if they get messed up? Do they still look alright? How long until the polish chips? Has it chipped yet? Why do my hands feel so strangely heavy?! Oh yeah..." etc. Probably wouldn't be worth it, haha!

    I love OPI. I think I'll do that. I was thinking I'd give myself a french manicure to save $ and time, but that looks so good and it's way easier & easier to touch up.

    Well, while I'm still not 100% sure about all my day of beauty details - I think whether I strengthen my natural nail w. a nail treatment or end up getting arcylic nails - I am thinking of going with the french manicure. :)

    I learned a lesson back in the day about having 'funky' nail polish on an important day - it it immortilized in photos!  (My h/s grad. diploma photo for my yearbook and the photos to pass out to family/friends - I wore baby blue nail polish!)    

    I don't want to go that same 'funky' route for my wedding day.  I have other ways of sprucing up my day in more unique ways than going bold on the nail color on my fingernails. (tho that's just my personal opinion).  Example, go classic on the hands and more bold on the feet perhaps. :)

    For (and since the wedding) I've had gells, pink and white, in a French manicure.  What's the difference between the two?  I'm not that knowlegeable about these things.  I like how they look pretty natural and are nearly indestructible!

    I'll probably go natural. But I may have accidentally checked the "born without nails" box. But now I feel bad; what if the other person who checked it actually was born without nails?

    My nails are very brittle and look pretty ugly with nothing on them.

    I usually wear pretty wild colors of polish on a daily basis, but since I'm going to have pictures taken of my hands I'm going to go with a simple nude or nude/pink shade that blends in. This kinda thing ↓

    @soon2beMrsGP: I just wrote that down as a definite do for my wedding pedicure!  That is too cute, and we'll be going somewhere tropical, probably Bahamas for the honeymoon so I'll want those toes to be cute as can be!

     

    As far as nails, either an acrylic overlay with a light opi nail polish, the breast cancer awareness color is so pretty, so that there is no chipping.  My nails chip easily. Or pink and white gel.

    Its a toss up between black and french, def no fake nails.. I hate when stuff gets under them and they really ruin my real nails. I also like the look of short nails :) I always use black nail polish and my girls will be wearing black dresses with black polish (an ode to me) so I am not sure if I want to match them or go for the french!

    I'm not a fan of fake tips. After about a day, they start to drive me nuts. However, regular nail polish just chips off soo fast. Soo 2 weeks ago I got my first OPI gel manicure and it lasted 2 weeks w/o chipping! They grew out quite a bit by the cuticle though. Im planning on getting the gel polish for the big day. And Tiffany blue pedicure for my somethng blue!
