A Northern, Gothic & Tattooed Wedding By The Sea – Samantha & Stuart

Posted on August 16, 2018 | 1 comment

Today on Marry Me Ink, I get to share with you this beautiful coastal wedding full of gothic animal skulls and a cute tattoo station from Photography and Film by Charli. 

We first met each other as I was friends with Stu’s sister, bumped into them and it was the first time we’d ever been introduced, he asked for my number and text me the next day asking for a date! 

We had lots of DIY bits at our wedding – Since we wanted something a bit different for our day, it wasn’t always easy to source something that was of the right theme. We used lots of animal skulls and gothic features which mirrored our personalities! We also had a tattoo station which was perfect for us, since we are both tattooed and planning more!

The tattoo station was all made by us, that was a lot of fun to build and paint! The bunting for the top table and the memorial candle box display too. It was great seeing all the hard work pay off and all the people we love so much having an amazing time.

A Game Of Thrones Wedding In Manchester – Louise & Chris

Posted on August 9, 2018 | Comments Off on A Game Of Thrones Wedding In Manchester – Louise & Chris

Winter is Coming! Okay, maybe not *quite* yet – It is still only August. Louise and Chris had their wedding North of The Wall at one of my favourite Manchester city hotels King Street Townhouse and their day was beautifully captured by Nik Bryant Photography.

We met in 2008 at a mutual friends house party. We were both dating other people at the time and it wasn’t until five years later when we started talking online and then went on a date. We bonded over our mutual love of Game of thrones and the rest is history!

The venue was one of the main things that represented us as a couple – we decided to get married at King Street Townhouse in Manchester because of its quirky style and beautiful views of the city. Manchester was where we had our first date and our relationship developed. I’m from Oldham and Chris moved to Salford from America at a young age so it was important to us to tie the knot in the city that brought us together.  We chose Game of Thrones as our theme as we’re both huge fans and it’s what got us talking again after all those years. Every detail from cufflinks to the flowers was all us, there wasn’t one detail on the day that didn’t feel like us.

The most DIY we did for our wedding was design the wedding invites ourselves with the help of a very good friend. We designed them in the theme and had them drawn digitally and printed ourselves, we also had wax and seal for the envelopes. We also made wildfire shots using apple Sourz in mini vials and also had a game of thrones shot glass for each guest as favours.

An Arizona Ghost Town Elopement – Angela & Anthony

Posted on August 2, 2018 | 1 comment

Happy August! It’s my birthday month and we’re onto double digits for our own wedding countdown! How long is it until yours?

Today on Marry Me Ink we have Angela and Anthony’s Arizona elopement from Suzy Goodrick, which included their portraits being taken in a ghost town scrapyard and onto an intimate Italian meal in the evening.

We met each other the good ole fashioned way back in 2010 in a bar called, Tavern on Mill Ave in Tempe, AZ. The highlights of our elopement included our photos in Jerome, AZ – it was definitely a cool experience. Following our swift union we had dinner at a very welcoming Italian restaurant called, Papa’s, where my father brought along his accordion and performed for the entire restaurant.

Our photos represent us best, we’re simple. Anthony has a love for old American iron, so family pictures at an unforgotten resting place of classic cars was an easy way to get him on board. As for myself I wanted cooler weather and tall trees, we got just that and our photos captured it perfectly.

A Muddy, Enchanting DIY Wedding – Mariah & Nathan

Posted on May 22, 2018 | Comments Off on A Muddy, Enchanting DIY Wedding – Mariah & Nathan

Today on Marry Me Ink, I get to share with you Mariah and Nathan’s DIY wedding from Miss Lyss Photography that took place at her family’s house. It rained the whole day and their idea of an outdoor wedding quickly became a muddy one. 

If you want me to be honest, the whole day was the highlight of the wedding for me. I really didn’t think it was going to turn out as well as it did because it was pouring for the whole day and we had the wedding in a tent at my grandparents’ house and it was just so freaking muddy out there. We had to improvise for a lot of stuff last minute. So many people helped in making it special and moving stuff around to accommodate the rain. From start to finish it was the best day ever. I am so thankful for everyone and how much was put into it.

The entire wedding was basically done by the family DIY style. I think the only real thing we didn’t DIY was the DJ and the Flowers.  The whole theme was vintage and 1920’s style. We tried extremely hard to stick to I that concept and it was hard finding stuff that fit that so we did a lot.  Continue reading →
