Accentuating Your Wedding Ring on Your Wedding Day 

You and your partner have spent a lot of time planning all the elements that go into your wedding day. The band is hired for the reception and the napkins for the place settings are picked out for dinner. With all these big and small details underway for your guests, you might have lost sight of wedding details for yourself. You might have the sweethearts table or a first look setup, but how are you going to accentuate your ring on your wedding day? It’s as simple as getting your nails done. Yes, a wedding is about celebrating your partnership, but who says you can’t show off your new bling? That’s why today we will be talking about how to find the perfect nail shape design to accentuate with your wedding ring. Let’s get into it! 

Matching Your Nail Shape to Your Diamond Shape

The diamond shape refers to the two-dimensional appearance of the diamond. The shape of your nails can be an easy way to enhance your ring, especially for photos. Keeping your nails manicured and mirroring a similar shape to your ring, will give you a polished and consistent look. Here is a list of a few popular ring shapes, curated by Custom Made, where you can create your own customized engagement ring and wedding ring, along with nail shapes that go best with them. 

Round Shape 

• This shape is very common for those looking for a glittery ring because the roundness is designed to maximize the stones sparkle. If the stone is on the larger side, you want to keep the nails simple and classic for the diamond to shine. We would suggest a classic mid-length oval nail shape with a semi-sheer mauve. If your round is on the smaller end, you can spice this oval up with a bolder accent color like a deep red or a pink to make it pop.  

Oval Shape 

• Ovals add a unique twist to the classic look of the round by having longer sides. For the wearer’s fingers, it creates an elongated, flattering look. This cut makes the diamond appear larger than it is carats. To accommodate your oval ring shape, you want to keep your nails in a similar oval shape. Keep the color classic by doing a cream with milky undertones to accentuate your ring. 

Pear Shape 

• In recent years, the pear shape has become increasingly popular for its striking teardrop shape. They lend to providing a slimming look to the wearer’s finger and can be enhanced by having your nails filed into an almond shape. You really want the shape of the ring to speak for itself, so keep the color subdued with a soft pastel pink or a barely there beige. 

Wrap Up 

We hope that these suggestions were helpful in finding your perfect nails for your wedding day. To make sure they last, get your nails done only a few days before and put an additional clear coat on top to prevent chipping. Nothing feels better than having your outfit come together with your nails done. So, treat yourself and let us know in the comments below what other diamond shapes we should cover in this series.
