Your Wedding Nail Timeline
| When | What | Why |
|---|---|---|
| About a week before | Facial | Your skin has time to settle and glow before the photos |
| 2 to 3 days before | Waxing | Any redness has time to calm down |
| 1 to 2 days before | Nails and pedicure | Fresh gel color and smooth feet for the ceremony and reception |
Tip: bring inspiration photos, plus a photo of your dress or bouquet, so we can match the perfect shade.
What Lasts Best for a Wedding
Gel is a bridal favorite: glossy, chip-resistant color that photographs beautifully. A gel manicure is $40. For extra strength, try Gel Builder (from $55). For extra length, try a Gel Extension ($65). Acrylic with gel and dipping powder both start at $55.
Bridal Nail Ideas
- Pearl chrome almond: soft, shiny and elegant.
- White French with blue florals: a sweet way to wear your something blue.
- Pink star and pearl French: playful and pretty.
- Soft botanical 3D flowers: perfect for a garden or vineyard wedding.
