Amazing Bridal Manicure

A couple of weeks ago, we got to go to our dear friends Emily and James' super fun wedding. Even more awesome, we go to do the bridal nails! Let me tell ya, you gotta see her nails. Bridal nails are usually quite neutral and subdued, which is perfect when you want to show off your gorgeous, special dress. However, every once and a while, it's so much fun to see a bride rock a fun manicure. And, Emily went there! She came up with such an adorable wedding manicure that we had to share it with you.

We used Deborah Lippmann's Naked (one of our all-time favourites) on 9 of Emily's fingers.

And, on the ring finger, we used OPI's Mod About You for the light pink background of a...tuxedo nail! Mod About You is a very chalky and opaque, pale pink so it really looked awesome as a girly-alternative to the classic white and black tuxedo nail that we did here (remember Zooey Deschanel wore tuxedo nails to the Golden Globes?) Love it. Such a cute idea for a wedding.

How adorable is that!? Check out these phone pics I took of the wedding..I'm sure some beautiful profesh photos will surface soon - I hope there is a good shot of Em's nails with her beautiful dress, hair, and self!

Wedding Nails!

We had the pleasure of doing the nails of a lovely group of ladies for a wedding...including the Bride! We had so much fun and were so happy to have been included in the Bride's wedding preparations - it was so exciting to be doing their nails the night before she was getting married.

First, we popped over to do Gillian's awesome plum and silver leopard print nails to match her dress.

Then we headed over to the hotel where the bride, her wedding party, and the rest of her family were staying. We were so happy to have the opportunity to set up shop to do the Bridal party's nails. It was neat to be included in the hustle and bustle of a wedding's eve preparations (organizing food orders for the next day, hair appointments, going over the itinerary, planning the honeymoon flights, etc). We really felt like a part of the nervous excitement! 

For this manicure, we used OPI's Dating a Royal with Orly's Tiara. Love it!

For this manicure, Chanel's Graphite was used...this polish is so awesome it doesn't even need any embellishments!

And, last but not least, the Bride's nails!

Perfect! For this manicure, we used Deborah Lippmann's Naked and Some Enchanted Evening (pink glitter) to create our fairy nails. The colour combination went with the wedding's colour scheme and is a perfect bridal manicure - understated and secretly sparkly!

What a fun time! Bridal manicures are a blast - we love to be part of the action!
