- Marble Wedding Nails
Marble wedding nails give a perfect classy and sassy look – a perfect traditional look with a hint of modernism. This look can be achieved in different soft and warm colors such as marshmallow and daisy. Feel free to put in a spiral twist by blending two or more colors together.
Another way to pull off this marble wedding nail look is by literally using marbles on your nails. Small glittering pebbles that will go a long way in making your nails look mesmerizing.

You can never go wrong with glitter no matter where you use it. Using it on your wedding nails is no exception. Just make sure not to overdo it as glitter is a bit tricky to handle. Trust me, a little goes a long way.
Glittery nails can be pulled off whether you’re a bride, a maid of honor, or a bridesmaid. And the best part, there is no specific color for this look. You can use dark or light shades as you please!
- Mauve magic
Neutral colors never fail to mesmerize. You can move away from the typical browns and beiges and still remain in the category of nude. Varying between light shades of pastel and dark shades of taupe will give you a simple stylish look that’ll scream ‘a better version of my nails’ all throughout your wedding. To add to the palette, you can color your nails in more than one shade to help stand out.
- Geometric designs
If you’re someone who absolutely hated geometry in high school, this is the perfect chance to get your revenge. Twist and turn these designs to look absolutely stunning, something no one ever thought was possible to do with geometry. If you are a bride looking for an edgy look for her nails, pick up this quirky trend that is taking the beauty world by storm.
There is no bound of which shape to choose or which edges to sharp. You can literally carve your nails into any kind of square, triangle, or ellipse. To add to the touch, you can even half fill the shape leaving the top of the shape vacant. This is all where your creativity comes in.
- Color n Mix
If you’re into bedazzling, this look is definitely for you. One might call this an ‘all in one look’ as you can throw in some matte, some glitter, some lacquer and even some artsy embellishments. All you need to do is stick to one palette and match the colors with your dress and you’re all done!
- Sparkling Tips
If you’re the bride, you sure would want a lot of sparkles in your wedding. Why leave your nails out of the party? Color the tips of your nails in any desired color, throw in a few sparkles, and apply a neat shining coat to the remaining part of your nail. This look will definitely call for a toast for which you will raise your glass high for everyone to see!
- Sleek metal Glamour
Wedding vows are usually exchanged during the night, and designing your nails to match the dark purple sky will surely boost your confidence as you say, ‘I do’. Hold on now, I know what you’re thinking. Hear me out. This is not a goth look. Quite the opposite, actually. Did you know in some regions, black roses symbolize peace and harmony? Why not give out positive vibes through your nails without having to say so yourself?
The best way to achieve this look is by applying a shiny black base coat on your nails. Next, choose a shiner or glitter of any color. Spray it on your nails and VIOLA! An easy, simple, yet breathtaking look is ready.
- Henna floral patterns
Henna is an easy and creative way to draw any shape and design on your nails. If you’re not a fan of the after-color, you can avoid using the actual henna cone and buy a few floral stickers to stick on your nails. You can either apply a color on the base and stick the flowers on top, or you can leave them a plain glossy shade and go all natural.
- French Nails
Just like French hairstyles and French makeup, there is also a French nail look you can achieve at your wedding. This manicure screams ‘romantic and delightful’ just like all other French things do. More over, it doesn’t even require too much effort! The trickiest part in this look is the neatness as only the tips of your fingernails are subjected to design. But the best part is that it is not restricted to any shape, design, or color.
- Ombre Nails
You know when you apply lipstick to only one part of your lip and ombre it to spread across both lips? You get a certain shade of color from dark to light. Ever thought of doing the same thing with your nails? The ombre nail look helps design a whole color palette on your hand. You can either start from light and work your way up to a darker hue of the same shade or vice versa. Just make sure to use soft, warm colors for the best output.
