A Classic French Manicure

You can never go wrong with this timeless and classic nail polish option. A French manicure is the best pick for brides who want to keep the focus on their new bling. It’s also a neutral hue and pairs well with most other colors and attire you might wear to your bridal shower.

A Barely There Polish

If color on your nails isn’t really your thing, opt for a beige or gray hue. This hint of color will be subtle enough to not overshadow your ring and also leave your hands looking polished and fresh. This color option is one of our favorites for brides not knowing what they’ll be wearing to an upcoming shower, since it doesn’t clash with other colors.

A Bright and Bold Red

For a bold look that will have guests trying their best to keep their eyes off of your rock, opt for a flirtatious red polish. A red-hot hue can work with any season, whether you are having a summer shower or winter soiree. It also stands out in pictures too. So make sure to take lots of snaps of you and your gang celebrating together.

A Hip Metallic Tone

This showstopping polish will definitely help accentuate your engagement ring and is also easy to pair with more modern outfits. Opt to wear attire with a smaller pattern in bold colors to really let the metallic polish shine. Think a crop top paired with dark pants and wedges to embrace your trend-setting vibe.

An Edgy Black

Perfect for brides-to-be who dig a more modern or edgy look, this dark and sultry nail polish is another favorite of ours for a bridal shower. The dark polish is a chic option if you are throwing an evening bridal shower. Black polish also can easily be paired with solid colors, so choose an outfit with little patterns, such as a solid color dress.
