Another ? - Nails

If anyone saw me last night at the GTG, you may have noticed that my nail polish was badly chipped. Nail polish does not last on my fingers longer than 12 hours! However, I had a manicure at Elizabeth Arden once and it lasted for 6 days!!! Do you have any places that does a great manicure, preferably in the city or Queens? I need to begin my search for a manicurist for my wedding. (I need to find a place that I can get to via subway). Thanks!
