I came across this picture and thought it would be interesting to ask for those of you with BM who have large arm tattoo's like below...are you asking them to cover it up???
They both look beautiful but all I am looking at in that pic is her arm.
I am not in this situation at all...I just came across the pics and wondered how everyone else felt...none of my BM have tats ..
I actually didnt even really notice it until I read your post. truthfully, I don't think i would feel comfortable asking someone close to me to cover up something that they are proud of and got for a reason. To me, its part of them and it really isnt too much of a big deal. I don;t realy know if it would bother me

Re: What do you think???
This was asked recently and most people said they would never ask someone to cover their tattoos and they would be insulted if they were asked. I personally do not like tattoos at all and I would have the bm's wear some kind of bolero or wrap for the pictures.

agreed...as a bride with tats...i would never ask a friend to cover herself up...she is who she is!

Luckily none of my BM's have tattoos on their arms but I don't think I would ask them to cover them up...

honestly...even though I am not a fan of very noticable tattoos, I wouldn't as a BM to cover it. If it is a big concern of yours, ask you photographer to position her in such a way that it would not be seen in photographs.

I would NEVER ask my BMs to cover up tats or take out piercings. My whole back is done, FH has a full arm sleeve and plugs so no I would never and I would be offended if someone asked me to cover up..... if you ask someone to be in your wedding you get the whole package. I don't think I would accept the offer to be in someones wedding if they asked me to cover up.

I'd rather that their tattoos not be in the pictures but I would never ask somebody to cover it up.

Nope. I wouldn't ask them to cover up and I would be pissed if they asked me to cover it up. The photographer can manuever around it if you really dont want it in pics. I dont think its a big deal... its your day... you are the center of attention... I wouldn't worry about it.

I am not a fan of the tats either BUT it's something people do and they love it so with that said- I have a FSIL with one just like that and I am having ALL the girls wear boleros. I could never ask just her to cover up- that's not fair. It could hurt her feelings.

My MOH/sisiter has one one her arm and I am not asking her to cover it up but, 1 of my BMs has a huge on eon her neck and she is wearing her hair down so it will be covered. She is not fond of it.

Re: What do you think???
some of my bm's have tat's and some had a couple but most had it in areas that didnt show. Such as the back, hip, actually one had on her wrist but i dont know cant see it any of the pics.
I wouldnt have told any of them to cover up their tat if it was on their arm or upper back where it would've shown. Its who they are, and i would feel like im saying to them 'youre tat is embarassing and i dont want my guests to see it' you asked them to be in your bp for the friendship you two share and you care about the person for who they are so just bc its our weddings i dont feel we should tell them things like this and take away from who they are or them have to hide a part of them.
Also would be hypocritical considering i have 2 tats on my back and dh has tats on his arms and back
