I just stumbled upon a few websites that state that french manicures are a thing of the past, is this a universal thought? I still get them done occasionally, and am planning to have them as such for my wedding in a few months, thoughts? Other ideas?

like the little black dress, french manicures are always in style. I have very nice natural nails, and that's pretty much the only type of manicure I get. I was at salon once getting my nails done and was debating between a color and the french manicure, and the nail person told me that if she had natural nails like mine, french manicure was the only way to go.
i actually have started to get french manicures with the white tip that is not so "white out correction fluid" white. Seche makes a wonderful pale pink and soft white. It looks very natural.
simple and classy.

French manicures are not "in" right now... neither are long nails... but I still think it would be pretty on a bride. Have you considered an American manicure? It's like the French, only with a much more natural white. It's classy and natural.
On the other hand, French manicures on toes are just plain gross (sorry!)... if your toe nails are that long then they need to be cut...

No, I still do French manicures alot and get them done when I can afford it. I think they look really pretty and you shouldn't listen to those websites, because it's the fact that you like them which counts. Also, French manicures go with alot of outfits and can look casual as well as stunning. I still think you should go with them for your wedding because they look nice and go well with wedding style themes. Hehe good luck with the wedding and I hope I have helped! xx

The french manicure is a trend that just keeps hanging on. If you're looking for a suggestion for wedding day nails, I would skip the french and just go for a pretty pink. It doesn't matter what length they are. It will enhance your fingers and not draw attention away from the wedding band, especially if you are going to have pictures of your hands with your rings on. In 20 years the french will look dated in pictures- kinda like old pics of women with teased hair and cat's eye glasses. A pink will be classic and timeless.

I think so. It's definentally the best for a wedding though. Acrylic french is fine, but I don't get manicures with white tips anymore, I like color! A few minutes ago I painted my toes red and my fingers dark purple.

no. nothing is a thing of the past. why should u just follow what is in right now? i love '60's clothes and style! u should never follow fashion, only what looks good on you....french manicures r so chic and cute. they will never be out.

french manicures are starting to become a thing of the past but you have to be an individual and go with what you think is best

No way, french manicures are always HOT. For my wedding i opted for a plain old manicure with light pink polish. (i think pink lookes better on my short little fingers) If thats what you want go for it!!! good luck!

I don't think they are. All of my friends get french manicures weekly and I think they will always stay classy for a wedding.
