The wedding festivities are officially underway for Simon Biles [1] and Jonathan Owens. On May 4, Biles posted an Instagram Story of herself and Owens hopping onto a party bus with the caption "& we're off" accompanied by the bride and groom emojis. Owens was decked out in an all-black sweatsuit, while Biles was wearing a two-piece sweat set [2] with the word "bride" emblazoned on the front in rhinestones. In a quick Instagram video, Biles did a cheers holding a glass of champagne, and our eyes were immediately drawn to her french manicure [3].
Biles is a longtime fan of the classic nail trend and has been known to try out many iterations in the past, including a "double french" manicure [4] and even the design with crystal detailing. For her destination wedding, however, Biles opted for a classic look with a pink nude base color and true white tips filed into an almond shape.
French manicures have recently made a resurgence, with new takes on the trend popping up every week – like the "vanilla french" manicure [5] and the "reverse french" manicure [6]. Plenty of celebrities have sported the look for a variety of occasions, and we even saw the majority of this year's Met Gala attendees [7] wearing some version of the popular style.
Biles and Owens officially married on Saturday, April 22, in a courthouse ceremony in Houston, Texas, but they plan to share the celebration with a larger group this weekend. Take a closer look at Biles's wedding nails [8] below.
