Are you worried about your **tattoos** and whether they will look right with your beautiful **wedding** dress? I was a **tattooed bride** who was worried too. Before I tried on gowns I wondered what my tattoos would look like with my **wedding dress** or what guests would think of them. There are ways you can [cover them up](https://www.advantagebridal.com/), but after seeing how beautiful I looked in my gown with my **tattoos** my advice is to **embrace** them and show off your **creative**, **funky** side while being the amazingly stunning **bride** that you are. Here are 7 other reasons why you should **love being a tattooed bride**... ## 7. Tattoos Are Badass... _ Photo: GreenWeddingShoes.com_ She's a beautiful, sexy, **badass bride** who isn't afraid to show off her amazing **tattoos**. To me in these two photos Melissa's photographer [Amelia Lyon](http://www.amelialyon.net/weddings/melissa-bryan-married.html) captured her personality perfectly. You can feel her **soft**, **romantic** side when you see her beautiful _Twigs & Honey_ hair flower and the detailed lace of her [Priscilla of Boston](https://beta.davidsbridal.com/) gown, yet you know she is **cool** and maybe could even kick some ass when you see her **impressive gun tattoos**. I love a [bride](https://allwomenstalk.com/7-cultural-wedding-traditions-for-any-bride-and-groom/) who knows how to flaunt her tattoos! Are you a **badass tattooed bride** like Melissa? ## 6. Tattoos Are Personal... ![Tattoos Are Personal...](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2010/08/weddingbeetattoo_400x267.jpg) ![Tattoos Are Personal...](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2010/09/temple_400x267.jpg) Photos:[WeddingBee.com](http://www.weddingbee.com/2009/10/27/a-hawaiian-affair-picture-time-picture-time/#more-115703) Some brides and grooms **tattoo** each other's names on their bodies when they get **married**, but this **creative** bride tattooed her breathtaking **wedding** **venue**, the [Byodo-In Temple](https://www.byodo-in.com/)located in Kaneohe Hawaii, on her back to have a piece of her [wedding day](https://allwomenstalk.com/8-new-wedding-trends-for-2010/)with her forever. I love how her Geisha Girl tattoo matched so well with the Temple, check out Mrs. Sushi's blog on [Weddingbee](http://www.weddingbee.com/2010/03/24/tattoo-update/#more-135899)to see the stunning update of the **art work **on her back. My husband and I got a horseshoe and feather tattoo to represent our last names together as one, will you get a **tattoo** to **symbolize** your **wedding** or **marriage**? ## 5. Tattoos Are OffBeat... _ Photo:RedHeartPhoto.com/blog/_ Who wants to look like every other bride? Be **offbeat** with your crazy,** fun tattoos** and blue hair that matches your something blue [shoes](https://allwomenstalk.com/10-prettiest-wedding-shoes/) like this sexy bride. Why cover up the fun person that you are on one of the most important days of your life? Amy is a bride who puts the **funk in funky** with an awesome bridal party and groom who [danced down the aisle](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Renczkfl2X8&%3Bfeature=player_embedded) and featured **carnival** snacks, balloons, a big top tent, and a **ringmaster** father of the bride to pay homage to her grandfather who is _Frosty the clown_. And she isn't just a **tattooed bride**, she's a **tattoo artist **who was on [A&E's Tattoo Highway](https://www.aetv.com/shows)! Will you use your fun offbeat **style** to create an **offbeat wedding**? ## 4. Tattoos Speak for You... _ Photo:DognBird.com_ Not every **bride** has a **tattoo** and that's okay, but for those of us who do we feel like it's a part of who we are and that it **speaks for us**. [Tattoos](https://allwomenstalk.com/8-fab-celeb-tattoos/) **tell a story of where we've been, what we like, who we miss, and maybe where we're going. Brittany's **musical tattoo** doesn't just tell you that she likes **music**, it shows you how much she **loves** **music because she permanently **inked** her arm for that love. This photo from Brittany and Bryces' pre-wedding [photo shoot](https://goo.gl/eZy6BS) could tell you a thousand stories of who they are or might be, but one thing you know for certain is that the** bride loves music** or loves the song within her tattoo. Do you have a **tattoo** that tells a story? ## 3. Tattoos Are Retro... _ Photo:Philadelphia-WeddingPhotography.com_ Everything about Jeanette speaks [retro](https://allwomenstalk.com/8-retro-inspired-accessories/) right down to her beautiful name! The rocking **tattoo** on her left arm reminds me of the classic [pin up girl tattoos](http://pinuptattoos.blogspot.com/search/label/cecil%20porter) you would see on sailors in the 50's but looks even better on her! This bride is proud of her **retro bridal style** with her adorable [horn rimmed glasses](http://www.etsy.com?ref=allwomenstalk.com), a [rockabilly](https://goo.gl/GK8RyR) hairdo, and a stunning, lace retro short wedding gown. I love her tattoos and her style, I only wish that I could pull off the retro look as well as she does! Do you have a **retro style** that you'll walk down the aisle in? ## 2. Tattoos Can Be a Theme... _ ![Tattoos Can Be a Theme...](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2010/09/tattoo21_403x279.jpg) Photos:[OffBeatBride.com](https://goo.gl/WZn76D) This wasn't just a [wedding](https://allwomenstalk.com/8-wedding-planner-tips/) with a **tattooed bride**, this was an awesome wedding with a **tattoo** and [VW bug](https://www.classicvwbugs.com/)**theme**! For their [wedding favors](https://allwomenstalk.com/8-unique-wedding-favors/) Katy and Tom had [custom temporary tattoos](http://www.faketatoos.com/index.htm) made with their names on them, now that is a favor no one would want to throw away! As for the VW bug_ part, the groom actually sold his first classic VW bug that he remodeled himself to buy his **tattooed bride's** wedding ring and he plans to remodel the beat up beetle seen in their wedding photos that he bought along with her ring...what a sweet guy! Do you have a **wedding theme** that captures the things you love? ## 1. Tattoos Are Romantic... ![Tattoos Are Romantic...](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2010/08/hearttatoo_402x602.jpg) Photo:[RocknRollBride.com](https://www.rocknrollbride.com/2010/05/the-security-guard-the-cocktail-waitress/) We used to think of **tattoos** as gang, prison, and war marks or something bikers and tough guys would have. As you can see on this **beautiful** **tattooed bride **tattoos are no longer harsh to the eye, they are **romantic**, **sweet**, and can be girly! Amanda and Byron are a **romantic** couple who tied the knot at the [Lake House Inn](http://thelhi.com/)in Pennsylvania, which seemed fitting since Byron [proposed](https://allwomenstalk.com/5-sexy-engagement-shoots-to-love/) by a lake when they were having a sweet little picnic after trying to hike up a steep hill that left them exhausted!
