Pedicures

I can't decide what to do with my toes. I will have acrylic white tip nails for the wedding but I can't decide if I want to have french on my toes or some color...What did you have or plan on doing?

    I had a matching french mani/pedi. I didn't get acrylics on my fingernails because I was afraid of one of them breaking on the HM and walking around with only some of my nails haha. So what ended up happening instead was the white tips started to peel off my manicure within the first few days of the HM. But my french pedicure stayed perfectly for several weeks after the wedding. I only just got a new pedicure a week and a half ago that's how long my pedi lasted! :0)

    I am not totally sure yet...I definitely want a french mani (with Opi Axxium) but am undecided about the toes.  I thought it might be cute to do a peach or orange since orange is one our colors...but then I thought 'do I really want orange nails for the entire HM?' since we're leaving the morning after the wedding!

    I just started the OPI axxium manicure and really like it so far! I went to Noella spa in Farmington one of you recommended sorry forgot who :)
    I plan on doing a color for my pedicure. I have never done french on my toes I am not crazy about it.

    I went with French on both fingers and toes.  I usually tend to go with simple stuff like that anyway.  Plus, the toes looked cute and matched everything I wore on our minimoon.

    I had red toenails for the wedding. Red is the only color I put on my toenails, ever. Not like anyone is really seeing your toes, anyway! haha

    I did french mani and pedi.  I wore pink shoes, so I didn't want my toes to clash.  I also thought having matching pink toes would be too much. I didn't want to detract from my adorable shoes.

    Does anyone see your feet anyways? Just get what you like. I don't think they have to match.

    Actually, if you're wearing cute shoes, your photographers may want to take pics of your feet.  It's quite common now to get cute artistic pics with your dress pulled up a tiny bit and showing your shoes.  Since I had pink shoes, we got quite a few shots with my feet showing.  They were totally cute and actually some of my favorite pictures of the day.

    Very true normally you wouldn't see the toes but my shoes are peep toe pumps and then changing into flip flops to dance. Plus sometimes photographers take pictures and my toes might show. Seems a little anal (I know) but I just wanted some feed back I'll probably get a color like burgandy/purple to go with the BMs since I have tiny pinky toe nails you wouldnt realize I had a french on them it would just be white haha.

    If your shoes are white peep toes and you get a color to match your BMs I think that would be totally cute.  You could get some adorable pics and they will tie in with the color theme. lol.  yes, I'm anal about that stuff too, so I get it!

    I always have a gel french manicure, but am not a fan of french on toes...So I'm thinking of doing a pink on my toes.

    I was thinking french or color on my nails (a whiteish color-like baby's breath or something) & the color on my toes. I am not a big french on my toes person!

    I did a very light color... I believe it was called Honeymoon Sweet and was OPI. 


    I loved the color and when I saw the name it was decided.  I hate acrylics so just au natural for me:)  And I had red toes but it was more for me since I had close toed shoes!

    My answer depends on the color of the shoes.  If you are doing a color to match the BM dresses, then definitely french manicure.

    If you shoes are white, go with a a fun color!

    I had white shoes, so I did my toes to match my girls.
