‘I fell in love with my tattoo artist – we both got inkings on our wedding day’

A woman who fell in love with her tattoo artist has revealed how they both got each other's initials on their ring fingers on their wedding day.

Olivia Johnson first met Kyle, 31, when she booked in to get a tattoo to pay homage to her late grandad, Steve, 77, who passed away in September 2019.

The 29-year-old wanted to get the quote ‘take it easy’ tattooed on her arm and Kyle kindly said that he wouldn't charge her for the ink.

But he didn't have the courage to ask Olivia out – so she took the plunge to message him.

After going on their first date, the pair hit it off and moved in together four months later. A year later, they were engaged.

Now, the tattoo-obsessed couple, from Ontario, Canada, have shared their unique wedding celebrations online, which included getting their initials inked on their ring fingers.

Olivia, who works for a car dealership, said: “I met him when he tattooed me. I thought he was attractive, and I had a crush on him.

“He’s very shy. He didn't charge me for the tattoo but didn't say anything else. So, I then sent him a message to ask him out. We moved quickly from there.

“I love Beyoncé and saw she and Jay Z have matching ring finger tattoos. I thought it was such a cool idea.

"Kyle can’t wear his ring a lot when tattooing as he wears gloves so it's easier for him as well. It was very special.

“I have a ‘K’ that is very dainty. Kyle has a bold ‘O’. We posed for the pictures on our wedding day and Kyle drew them on but we had to get it done properly the next day because there was just not enough time. It was the craziest day."

Olivia and Kyle also have a matching bee tattoo behind their ear to symbolise the tattoo parlour they own together – The Hive Tattoo & Co.

They plan to continue getting matching ink when they visit different places together – and hope to get one when they visit Nashville, Tennessee, for their anniversary.
