Couple Tattoo Ideas
Couple tattoos are very popular ways to express the love that you and your partner feel for each other. They are a great way for couples to show the world their love, but you are probably wondering what out of the box ideas there are for couple tattoos. I mean, all couples could just get each other's names tattooed on their bodies, but where's the fun in that?
Couples should really look into tattoo ideas that mean something to them, which why there is a gallery of ideas listed out below. The couple tattoos are divided into several gallery categories with different couple tattoo ideas in them. There are sayings, objects, symbols, and complementary tattoos for men and women, for couples of all shapes and sizes that will help couples express their love.

1. Crowns
For this couple tattoo, you each get a crown. You can feminize, masculinize or leave them totally unisex. This idea works for men and women.
2. Infinity Symbol
This couple tattoo symbolizes that your love for your partner is forever. A simple, yet meaningful idea for matching tattoos.

Final tips and ideas
The best advice I have for ideas of couple tattoos is to get a couple tattoo that means something to both you and your partner. The idea is to have something forever on your body that will mean something forever to you as a couple.
Sit down with your partner and have a discussion as a couple about the matching tattoos you want to consider. Talk through your ideas and decide on the best couple tattoo to get. This should be a loving and thoughtful decision and one that should be talked about with clear heads. You want your ideas to be creative and to mean something to you as a couple, so don't be afraid to pull ideas from out of the box.
Have fun with your couple tattoos and remember to have a discussion of your couple tattoo idea clearly not only with each other but with your artists as well because you will need them to understand your couple vision clearly to get the best couple tattoo. Good luck with your ideas and couple tattoos!
