10 couple’s tattoos for the hopeless romantics

Aww, you’ve finally found The One, and the love you have for one another can’t be expressed in words… until one day your soulmate chews a bit too loudly and you realise what a horrible mistake you’ve made.

But if you’re still in that honeymoon phase of your relationship, you might want to show the world how much you love each other by getting a couple’s tattoo, so before familiarity breeds contempt, here are ten ideas we’ve picked out for you from the depths of the interwebs.

Fitting together to make the perfect picture! It’s almost as if you were made to be together!

Did your special someone open the lock to your heart? Are they the key to your happiness? Then there’s only one tattoo for you!
