The Manchester International Tattoo Show 2013

Posted on July 30, 2013 | 2 comments

Today I’m excited to announce some massive that I will be involved with this weekend! If you follow the Marry Me Ink Facebook page and Twitter page, you’ll already know this.

I am SUPER excited to announce that I am officially an Award Sponsor for this year’s Manchester International Tattoo Show taking place Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th of August at Manchester Central (For other Mancunians.. It’s also known as the GMex)

Rachel Baldwin

The Manchester Tattoo Show (which is already firmly established as one of the UK’s most popular conventions) returns to Manchester Central this summer and is bigger than ever.

For the past ten years, the Manchester Tattoo Show has been one of the leading conventions on the UK tattoo scene. The event attracts tattoo artists of the highest calibre to the city for a weekend of fantastic ink and great entertainment.

With over 5,000sqm of the Manchester Central being used, the event welcomes world-class artists, live acts and entertainment and traders and vendors for visitors to enjoy.

This growth comes following a growth in demand and investment from Jazz Events, which already runs three leading UK tattoo conventions and acquired the Manchester Tattoo Show in 2012. Shelley Bond, event manager commented: “We’re excited to be enhancing this already popular show, giving ticket holders a better than ever chance of getting inked by one of the world’s leading tattoo artists. This year we have ‘Circus’ theme with related acts and performances taking place all weekend; there will be a lot going on and something for everyone.”

What is Pinterest?

If you haven’t already seen it, then you’re going to be ridiculously excited! Pinterest is just a online scrapbook or notice/pinboard and it’s SO GOOD!

This is what my Pinterest looks like. It’s full of the stuff I love such as owls, cakes, home decor and most importantly, tattooed weddings.

With Pinterest, it’s SO easy to add stuff to your boards when you’re out and about with the app, or if you’re at your desk or laptop, you can easily add the “Pin It” button to your Bookmarks.

So, when I’m getting the next Divine Without The Dollar post ready, I’m also pinning stuff to my Products I Love Board when I’m on ModCloth and Etsy! Also, when I post a real wedding on Marry Me Ink, I also pin a photo from this post to the Tattoo Wedding board!

So, why am I telling you all about Pinterest today? Well, It’s exciting to announce that Pinterest is launching officially in the UK, with some more exciting additions and features for the website! Continue reading →

Oh! Today features lots of awesomeness for a fantastic event coming to Bristol for all you lovely brides and husbands-to-be!

With a free cocktail on arrival for the first 200 guests, you can enjoy the stunning views from the Northside balcony, mixing urban with classic – the modern steel building framing Bristol Cathedral – or enjoy people-watching over Millennium Square and the silver sphere overlooking Bristol to the south.. The Weird & Wonderful Wedding World will be taking place at the awesome At-Bristol Science Museum!

Amazing vendors include Death & Glory Taxidermy, Crown & Glory, Beyond Burlesque, Lisa Keating Bridal, Black Cherry Cake Company, The BelleFleurs, Auntie’s Vintage China and many more..

The show will appeal not only to brides out there looking for something really different, but to quirky couples who want to dress up, have a cocktail or two, listen to local bands, dance or chill out, whilst surrounded by the weirdest and most wonderful wedding suppliers on one floor, making it a great night out. You can enjoy a fashion show under the stars in the Planetarium, watch jugglers, close-up magicians and living statues and, when your man gets tired, send him off to the ‘man crèche to play on all the interactive science museum exhibits (and, of course, you can have a play too!).

The best thing about The Weird & Wonderful Wedding World event is that it’s taking place in the evening! The great doors will be open from 6pm and you can party on until 11pm if you wish!
