Essie's new bridal collection is hardly what we've come to expect from a traditional bridal manicure, and that's precisely why we love it. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't seriously giddy seeing a color palette that plays outside of the traditional range of pink, nude, and white. This cheerful lineup has fingers (and toes) covered from bachelorette party to honeymoon in the tropics. Naturally, there is also something fitting for the big day, be it a traditional sheer pink (like Coming Together) or stunning creamy violet (like Groom Service). No matter the color or the occasion, these soft shades are equal parts unexpected and beautifully elegant, every bit fitting for a bride.

Between the Seats
Between the Seats ($9) is an understated sheer pale gray-beige cream.
Coming Together
Coming Together ($9) is the shade closest to a traditional sheer pink.
Groom Service
Groom Service ($9) is a stunning creamy violet.
Mrs. Always Right
Mrs. Always Right ($9), the darkest of the bunch, is a pastel terracotta pink.
Steal His Name
Steal His Name ($9) is a cheerful, sheer orange-y peach.
Passport to Happiness
Passport to Happiness ($9) is a muted mint green with a subtle iridescence that lends a pretty twinkle without being full-on glitterfest.
