Okay, so maybe you're "supposed to" look pious and pure on your wedding day, but you have the whole white dress/soft makeup combo going on already. This wedding nail design adds some demure sex appeal with lacy nail decals. Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips come in a multitude of patterns and colors.
For subtle ombre nails, take the polish of your choice (in this case lavender) and apply a few drops on a paper plate. Next to the drop of lavender polish, place a few drops of white nail polish. Use a toothpick or orange stick to swirl the colors together where they meet along the edges. Next, take a wedge sponge and soak up a little of the polish and dab over your nails. If you want to keep the spongy texture, let the polish dry and follow by a topcoat. But if you want this smoother look, apply your topcoat right away letting it blend the colors even more as you stroke the brush upward.
Forget hunting around for a blue garter or getting down on your hands and knees to paint the soles of your shoes blue (what did we do before Pinterest?). This multi-hued manicure incorporates plenty of shades of blue to give you wedding day luck.
A vintage wedding is the perfect setting for a funky, art deco nail art design. To get this design, start by applying a coat of white nail polish (or two if your polish is too sheer). Next, use nail striping tape to mark off a peak design. Paint the bottom half of your nail up to the tape with OPI Nail Lacquer in All Sparkly and Gold. Once your gold nail polish is dry, peel off the striping tape and apply another peak design farther down the nail with your tape. Fill in this section with black nail polish, let dry and remove the striping tape. Finish with a topcoat and you're a modern day Daisy Buchanan.
You go all out when it comes to searching for the perfect wedding dress. You tear out photo after photo of wedding updos, down 'dos and curly tendrils before deciding on the right hairstyle.

Your wedding nails should complement that gorgeous dress, show off your ring and of course, look great in the billions of photos you'll be posing for. We scoured Pinterest and the nail art blogs for the best wedding nail designs and nail art ideas for your big day.
