Today on Marry Me Ink I get to share with you a beautiful indoor forest wedding from Smyer Image with neon everywhere in their venue – It’s mesmerising. Janalee and George got married at Pierpont Place in Utah with Diverse Diva as their epic wedding planner.
George and I were meant to be. I was actually dating someone else when we met. We became friends immediately and he would join us every weekend to bar hop or BBQ. Our friendship grew more and more as the months went by, and before I knew it I had fallen for my dear friend, and he for me. We tell everyone he stole me from another man, just for the fun shock factor of it. But I think we were supposed to meet like we did, and become friends first. I think it made our bond extra strong.
One part of our day that represented us as a couple was the untraditional nature of the wedding and reception. We didn’t want to follow the rules and traditions of every other wedding – Very much how we live our lives. Pierpont Place did an incredible job of hearing my vision and bringing it to life even better than I could have imagined. Not many people would understand rock n roll goth/fantasy forest, and nail it like they did.
My tattoos are just such a big part of me, I sometimes forget they are there. I wanted my dress to match my hair – I’ve had blue hair for years, and felt like I needed to incorporate that into my dress, which I did.
Be you on your wedding day!! Don’t concern yourself with what family or friends or others will think or want. Let those tattoos show proudly, and keep your hair pink, or blue, or whatever. I think too many people hold weddings to a standard that is old fashioned and out of date. Weddings should be what make the bride and groom happy. To show their love for each other, and share it with loved ones.
How epic is Janalee and George’s wedding? I am absolutely in love with the woodland fantasy reception and all the colouring that matches Janalee’s hair prefectly!
