Short nails

What is an American manicure?

I just googled it and it;s like a French Manicure just with softer white tips - I didn't know either

Glitter always looks fun with shorter nails, especially if you shape your nail to a more square edge. You could also do those little crystal decals on your nails.
If you want something more subtle or romantic, pretty sure they can do the pink and white look on your real nails too.

I’m thinking about pink ombre for mine, I’ve got short stubby chef nails.

I think that would be very pretty

You could also do polish on your natural nails!

I was thinking of doing polish on my natural nails. Just hope it will hold up for my rehearsal dinner and wedding day lol

Normal nail polish should be okay! I would do them the day before too and stay away from doing the dishes or anything like that. Maybe get a bottle of something similar to whatever you decide to get that way if anything does chip you could easily fix a tiny bit.

I always have long acrylics anyway and I am trying to think of something a little special too. The only thing I can think of is going longer. It's my day to be glamorous!

I think I'm going to do a soft gel manicure because I don't want acrylics and normal polish typically lasts less than a day for me. If you want to be super nail friendly, I'd get a manicure with normal polish the day before the wedding, and make sure you also own that color of polish so you can do touchups as needed.
