We want sparkles! We want bows! We want fashion! We want gold! And white, and hearts, and some florals — well, no one said picking out good nail art and accommodating everyone's different styles and personalities is easy. Do you remember a time not long ago when the phrase Always a bridesmaid, never a bride used to be uttered, or heard — pitifully? Oh, how quickly the times have (thankfully) changed. And there's the added benefit of looking at it this way: while the bride only gets one hen party, the bridesmaid, especially one with some experience in these affairs, gets plenty more.
If you're in the bridal party, the hen weekend is where it's at. There are always some fun girl bonding activities involved (and Moët, naturally), and if it's come down to you to think of a good thing you can do together, a group mani is always a cute idea. Once you've scored a couple of nail artists that can come simultaneously and meet your bride tribe, the next up is choosing what nail art to do. To get your creative juices flowing, here are some nail ideas that are all different, yet show cohesiveness when put together: just like the bride and groom. You ladies have fun now!

The Chanel logo is accompanied by black detailing on a different finger, which you can take even further by making it in a shape of camellia flower in full bloom, which is another symbol of this brand. Incorporating these details in negative space design gives this nail design a contemporary feel.
Milky and pearly white shades are color blocked by a statement ring fingernail done with white splatter on a nude background. Perfect for the unobtrusive, traditional one in your hen house.
Elegant enough to be the bride's nails, these tender, sparkly pink nails have nothing to prove, match with everything, and will delightfully reflect light with every champagne sip.
