15 Couples’ Matching Wedding Tattoos Visually Honoring Their Marriage Vows

wedding tattoos

Marriage is said to be “till death do us part,” and some couples have chosen to honor this vow with something equally as permanent—beautiful ink. Wedding tattoos have become increasingly common, and couples are eager to show off their matching work. Some choose designs that are literal interpretations of their big day, with tattoos of church bells, a date, or a portrait. Others take a more symbolic approach, selecting imagery that’s important to both people, but doesn’t necessarily imply that it’s a wedding-specific tattoo. Both styles look great and are imbued with meaning for the wearer. Check out some great examples of this growing trend, below.

Here are 15 marriage tattoos that couples got to celebrate their big day.
