Cute! I love glitter lined french tips, very on trend at the moment.

If you don't want to go full acrylics you could try Builder Gel overlay - it just gives your nails a bit of extra strength in addition to the gel polish (I have builder gel on in my pictures at the top! but you can have it as a 'base' if you don't have super long nails that need the support from thicker application with a apex).

You'll find its similar cost and you get the same wear time as acrylics - I go 4 to 6 weeks with mine because I take super good care of them, but most of my girls go 3 - 4 weeks including my mum who is a gardener and an absolute nightmare with her nails!

Sorry to go all nail tech on you, but I know not everybody wants the thicker nail look so this could be an option if you'd prefer them to look more natural.

I'll attach a pic of a builder gel overlay I did on my own nails back when they were shorties! Really thin and natural but adds sooo much strength

Ahh they are super cute though!! They definitely suit you. But white does feel like quite an intense thing to wear if you're not used to it - I find it looks really intense on me because I have quite an olive skintone so it makes my hands look mega tanned. Which can be nice, but sometimes I just find it a bit much!

I was definitely thinking of a nude pink with some kind of white accent, whether its tips or swirls or a pattern on accent nail.... blah, I don't know! Been really struggling to find inspiration pics out there

I tried flowers like that! They're cute, but I ultimately decided I wasn't sure they'd photograph well for the day, like our portraits.
I recently tried this! A really light and slightly sparkly gel with gold flakes. I think for my actual wedding day, I'd like smaller pieces. But I like this look a lot and it'll look good with our rings. 😍

This is my favorite inspo pic I have saved so far. Can't wait to test it out once my nails are a little longer!

You can always find some styles for nails that may be more appealing to you. I found my nail style pick for the big day

I’m having a beach wedding so I wanted to have some tropicalish flowers.

This is how I'm getting mines done for my big day

Oh my gosh I LOVE these! I can't believe this is you uninspired!

I have a really timeless and simple dress so I opted for a simple French tip 😬
