Wanting to share beautiful photographs of gorgeous tattooed brides was one of my main objectives for starting Rock n Roll Bride. It might not seem like that long ago, but when I first registered this domain in 2007, there was literally no media representation for brides that were inked and proud.

Seeing women in wedding magazines or on blogs with their tattoos on show while in their wedding dresses (shock horror!) wasn’t just uncommon, it was non-existent. Any article you’d find dedicated to tattoos and weddings was always about how to best cover them up. Sad times.

A LOT has changed since then (thank goodness) and no longer are we bombarded with the notion that you have to hide your tats when you walk down the aisle… well not as often anyway.

Things have come a long way baby, and call me presumptuous, but I like to think that this little wedding blog of mine may well have helped to pave the way.

Can’t get enough? More tattooed brides are just a click away!
