Tattoo wedding rings are the ultimate outward sign of commitment. We're not talking about the late-night decision to scrawl someone's name across your forearm.

If the ring finger isn't real estate you want to cover, think about a matching tattoo in the same spot, like the edge of your palm for an image that takes shape when you're holding hands. Wondering who would do such a thing? Jay and Bey have their wedding date tattooed in Roman numerals under their rings!
