Well manicured nails can be
perfect for the wedding day
Well done
A bride's hands play an integral role in a wedding day. From
photographs to onlookers sneaking a peak at the day's
wedding rings, plenty of eyes are on a bride's hands on the
big day. (MS photo)
MS — Certainly a bride's gown
receives its fair share of attention on
her wedding day, especially in those
first moments when she proceeds
down the aisle to her soon-to-be
spouse. But another part of the
bride's ensemble will be
scrutinized... her hands.
Wedding guests will be anxious to
see the wedding ring and
photographs of the couple holding
hands typically are included in the
wedding album. A bride's hands
need to look as polished as the rest
of her wedding day ensemble.
Luckily there are no established
rules when it comes to wedding day
nail polish. Colours can range from
neutrals and traditional shades to
shades that are brighter and more
exotic. Some brides like to wear
blue nail polish, which gives them
flair and completes the requisite
"something blue" tradition. Not sure
what to choose for your wedding
day colour? See if one of these
suggestions fits your style.
• Nude colours: Brides may want
to downplay their nails and not let
them detract from their rings or
gowns. Using nude colours will help
achieve this. Nudes can include

blush pink, off-white and beige -
toned nail polish alone or in
combination, such as with a French
manicure. Some brides choose to go
with clear polish and let their natural
nails shine through.
• Glitter: For a bit more pizzazz,
brides can have their nails done with
a nude or clear colour enhanced with
glitter. The glitter will add a bit of
sparkle that can complement the
shine of wedding rings and any
embellishments on gowns or veils.
An alternative is to have tiny faux
gems imbedded into the polish near
the base of the nail where it meets
the cuticle.
• Nail Art: Polish can be
enhanced further with nail appliques
or painted -on designs. It's common
for nail art to only appear on one
nail of each hand, and it's usually
reserved for the ring finger. As
people admire the wedding ring,
they also can grab a peek at some
fun and flirty nail art designs.
• Bold and beautiful: Brides who
really want to make a statement can
select a bold colour for their nail
polish. Coral and deep pinks can be
a stark contrast against a white gown
and add a bit of drama to a bride's
look. Brides also may want to co-
ordinate their nail colours to the
theme of the wedding. A blue or teal
shade for an ocean -side wedding or
a lavender shade for a spring
wedding amid tons of blooms can
look beautiful.
It pays to have nails professionally
manicured so that fingers will be
flawless. A manicure also provides a
little pampering before the demands
of the wedding day set in.
