Whether you like your nails long and pointy or short and subtle, they’ve got to be well-manicured for the big day. From clutching the bouquet to the exchange of rings, your hands are going to be front and centre, so your tips and cuticles better be ship-shape. Here are 11 nail polish hues we think would look just fabulous on a bride who is getting married in winter.

1. DARK GREEN

Shades of emerald are absolutely dreamy for winter, especially when offset with flecks of gold.

3. BLACK AND GOLD

Who says you can’t wear black to your wedding? If you’re worried it will evoke memories of your sixth-form goth phase, elevate it with some gold accents.

4. BURGUNDY

Warm and glamorous, burgundy is a great nail colour for a bold bride.

5. WHITE

You certainly can’t go wrong with a shade that’s this close to the colour of your dress.

6. PEARLY

These playful mother-of-pearl-hued nails are super photogenic and would look adorable in wedding photos.
