While it might be tempting to have trendy nail art, colors, or nail shapes, your wedding day isn’t the time to experiment. You don’t want to look back at your wedding photos someday with regret. It’s best to opt for nails that are timeless and will never look dated. While your best bet is sticking to classic colors and shapes, a subtle touch of bedazzle like these dainty pearls is the perfect compromise.

Keep it Practical

Long nails are feminine and elegant, but sometimes they’re not always practical, especially if you’re not used to them. For the pragmatic bride, stick to a shorter nail that won’t snag your dress or get in the way of fully enjoying your day.
