Whether you’re a bride-to-be or on the guest list, having your nails ready for a photo op is a must for wedding season. Spring wedding season, especially, is the perfect time of year to have fun with your manicure and play with non-traditional pastel shades for a statement that’s still wedding appropriate. If you have a wedding on the horizon this spring, consider these four fun nail trends.

Ombre French Manicure

French manicures are one the most popular and classic choices for your wedding manicure, but if you want to add something a little more playful and modern, opt for an ombre French manicure. 

A modern take on the traditional version, ombre French manicures still give you the pale pink base and white tips you’re used to, but the two colors gently fade into each other for a soft and romantic look. This makes it a great choice for brides who don’t want to veer too far off the beaten path yet still want something unique and on-trend.

Non-Traditional French Manicure

If you like the clean lines of a classic French manicure but still want something more whimsical, a non-traditional French manicure is the perfect way to make a statement on your wedding day. With this style, you can swap the classic white tip for spring-appropriate pastel colors (or any other color your heart desires). 

Many brides and bridesmaids like incorporating the wedding colors into their manicures for a cohesive-yet-wedding-appropriate style. You can also do a colored base coat with a white or metallic tip for something extra bold.

Something Blue

Do you have your something old, something new, and something borrowed? If you’re still searching for that something blue, have it be your nails! 

From deep navy to pale dusty blue, there are plenty of options that are still subtle and neutral while offering that “something blue.” For a pop of color, you can choose from Tiffany blues, Robin’s egg blues, cerulean, and even metallic shades. Any silk wrap nail salon will have virtually endless options for you to choose from.

Millennial Pink

One of the most popular colors of the past few years, millennial pink is the perfect shade for a modern and trendy bride. This light pink gue is the perfect way to add a subtle touch of color to your nails, being both on-trend and elegantly timeless.

You can also adapt the millennial pink shade to your personality by choosing from rose quartz, rose gold, blue, or bubblegum tones that hit the mark while remaining true to you.
