If not, what color are you going to do? I am not crazy about the french manicure but not sure if it will look odd to do something else. I was thinking a light champange color???

I'm not doing a french manicure. Personally I'm not too crazy about them. I think I'll probably do a light pink.

I just got my nails and toes done in a peachy / champagne color and I think I will do something similar for the wedding.

Oh good, I'm glad I'm not the only one!! When I tell some people that I don't want a french manicure they look at me all funny.

Re: anyone NOT doing a french manicure?
i love french but i may do a light pink color instead so that it last for the HM - french is my favorite but if i get done the day before the wedding im afraid it will be all chipped by the time the wedding is over - i think a pale pink would last longer.....but im torn because french is my favorite...

My french lasted my whole HM...I don't know how but it did. It wasn't even the forever french.

I'm just doing clear. I'm not a fan of the french or color at all on my nails.

I chip the frenchs way too easily. I'm doing a light pink... But def an opaque pink, not a sheer one.

You can ask the manicurist to paint the tips white two times. That makes it last longer. :) Also I plan on getting my nails done again during my HM (spa time haha)!!!!
I'm not sure what color I'm doing. I like the French but I am thinking something different would be nice!!!

Re: anyone NOT doing a french manicure?
I still haven't decided. I had always planned on getting french, but then i read somewhere that french was too 'visually distracting' on a wedding day. The break up of colors or something detracts from the overall look. I don't know.
If I end up not doing french, i was thinking of a pale pink or shimmery nude. My bouquet will be dusty pink roses, and I'm sure we'll do a few shots of our hands on top of the bouquet, showing off our rings :) So I want the nail color to compliment the flowers.
Hmm, have I thought about this much?

I might do a light pink (limo-scene, ballet slippers from Essie) and a red toe also! Leave it to Diva (Essie) is my fave.
