Comments on: One of my sisters is heavily tattooed (both arms and shoulders). I don’t want the tatts to appear in my wedding photos. Should I drop her from the wedding party?

Brides need to understand yes it is your day but no harm to think of other peoples feelings especially your family. If droping ya sibling as a briesmaid due to her tattoos can be sound discriminative, which means karma will follow you even a gap between the relationship between you and the sibling which should not have to be like that. DOES NOT matter what the tattoos are and look like even how many how there, just as long that there are arrangements to be made to not to cause any trouble on the wedding and the near future, put yourself in the person’s shoes “how would you feel you been told you are not in the bridal party due to having many tattoos or anything really?” it not a good feeling at all then don’t do it to the person if you wont like it being done to you. There are makeup artist there who specialise in camoulflage makeup who have special products made for your skin type to cover up tattoos and the products they use can last you for the whole entire wedding even 24 hrs! believe it or not, reason how I know this cause I am a makeup artist myself and I am specialized in camoulflage I even cover some woman;s tattoo on her back which was massive and some tatts on her arm, it takes a while to cover (depending on the size) but if you aggotiate to your makeup artist bout the tattoos then the artist will work from there and make it happen and ofcourse the answer wont be a ‘no’ its the makeup artist job to make your day go well and on time.

one of the girls in my bridal party has a few tattoos and is getting more. She said she could always wear a long dress instead of the short one that way she could cover her tattoos. I told her dont be silly we asked you to be in our wedding and the tattoos arent gonna change it!!!

Please listen to good advise and wisdom you have recieved.

. . . on my soap box . . .
If you give your sister the sack, then each of you have to deal with that for the rest of your lives, Is your relationship that strong, or are you sure it strong enough to be tested, Your children her children, the whole family will have to deal with it. That pain can last a long time. Your sister is a very creative person demonstrated through the art she wears on her skin. Do you understand the meanings she has about tattoos and how it expresses her passions. Don’t give her the sack, her tattoos should be high-lighted during the photo shoot. Be creative and turn her art into something positive. Can she sing ? Ask her to share a special song that she holds dear. In her expression of love for you and your hubby. She’ll know what to do. An opportunity for creating everlasting love should not be passed up. Take it and make it a very postive statement. You can do that.
. . . off the soap box . . .

My love to both of you.
Peace and Love to you,
both of you,
all of you.
Bless you, and your whole family.

Love, Jeggs

. . . Jai Baba . . .

Depending on what the tattoos look like you could use them to further enhance your sister’s outfit for the day. It is all the rage to have ones brides maids all wearing different dresses that suit them and who they are. Including your sister’s tattoos as an enhancement to her outfit will not only I presume make your sister happy, it will make a lovely statement to her personallity and who knows, you could start a trend…

Disgusting. I have several tattoos and when i got married i proudly had them in my photos, they added to the photos and looked amazing. To even consider ditching your sister because she is heavily tattooed is a disgrace. Why even have her to begin with then? You should accept her for who she is.

When i first got married they used a makeup that is specificly for covering up tattoos worked like a charm just ask the person doing your make up

I was recently married and have a tattoo on back. I wore a strapless dress but didn’t want my tsttoo to be seen in photos. After discussing this with our wedding photographer, he advised that he could remove my tattoo from the photos via editing. Maybe discuss this same option with your wedding photographer for your sister’s tattoo. x
