5 Best Couple Tattoo Ideas

These 5 ideas are a real classic. If you want a timeless couples tattoo, this is the place to start.

Got strength from my weakness

You don't have to fall in love with the design to marvel at the feeling behind this matching tattoo idea. You are strong where others are weak - this is part of the relationship.

The scene that means everything

Every couple has a movie, song or TV show that with them. Why not tattoo a scene on your body that means something important to you? For example, this is the iconic ending of Fight Club.

Two halves

A heart split in two, on one side on your arm and the other on your partners, is a cliché to match the tattoo. But this design takes a half-hearted idea, making it fresh by including lions.

Simple design x2

We love it! The guy has a tattoo on the front of his leg, and the girl on the back. When they stand together, you can also see the tattoos together. Cute.

Yin and Yang

Being in a relationship, being a couple, requires balance, compromise and equality. This is what yin and yang represent. You are two halves of one whole. This is so romantic?! This tattoo looks great on fingers.

10 couple tattoo ideas, small

A small tattoo is applied quickly and is very intimate. You also don't have to brag about it to the world... and of course it's easy to cover up if things don't go as planned!

Tiny symbols

These simple symbols instantly match when you hold hands. It's very cute and great for beginner tattooists who don't want an intricate, painful tattoo. Stars, star and moon, hearts... there are many ways to customize this.

Sun and moon

Who is the sun in your relationship, and who is the moon? This tattoo uses a new style to bring that old favorite matching tattoo to life. This is a great little tattoo for the ankles, wrists and collarbones.

Eternal love

We love symbols! The number 8, symbol of eternity, is intertwined with a simple love heart. Ideally, if you really mean it when you say: "I love you", and you are sure that you will be together forever.

I love you 3000

This tattoo makes us feel straight. It's so romantic, but it also says a lot. Loss, sacrifice, love, teamwork... it's all summed up in this simple quote from Avengers: Endgame. We love this 3000.

For cat lovers

Have you noticed the heart of love that arises between cats when they sit together? This is an adorable tattoo that you can get with your partner, especially if you both love cats. Adapt for dogs too!

Bananas!

Maybe it's the symbol of an inside joke, or maybe they shared a banana split on their first date. No one but this couple knows the meaning of identical banana tattoos. We envy their wonderful closeness!

Art line

Line art is a popular design choice for couples tattoos. This is great for small characters like this or a short letter. You can also play with the colors of the lines - black and red - a classic and romantic combination.

Constellations

This is a great idea. You can get your partner's zodiac sign tattooed, or you can both get a constellation tattoo that reminds you of the date you met. This is a great minimalist style that is worth a try.

Her lover, his lover

The he and she trend is great for home designs, but what about couple tattoos? We love this idea, especially when it's so subtle and simple. The wrist position is also very good.

We complete each other's sentences

This is a tattoo full of meaning. This is a small but powerful and romantic reminder to partners that together they are one. Amazing team. The font style was the perfect choice.

10 Cute Couple Tattoo Ideas

Love isn't always pretty rainbows and sunshine... so why not get a really cute tattoo that reminds you that even if there are bad times, the good times are worth it?

cartoon creatures

They love to move! This is a nice idea. Choose a duo of characters from your favorite movie and have them tattooed on your arms - when you're together they match, when you're apart they're still cute.

Fall to your chip

You can't have chips without sauce. Does this sum up your relationship? Whether you are a couple of friends or a romantic, this is a nice idea. The kawaii style is adorable. Bright colors are essential.

Rock and roll, man!

This tattoo is cute but not cute in my little pony style. The universal rock and roll symbol is a great matching tattoo when you and your partner share the same musical vibes. Rock it!

Rocket to Saturn

Another cute idea that doesn't involve identical tattoos. They are made to fit, but in a subtle way. If your partner shakes your world so much that you're flying into space, this is a great tattoo idea.

Cowboy hats

Both tattoos are hats, but the styles are unique. Isn't this just a summing up of the relationship? Both of you are similar, but also personalities. This is a cute tattoo that shows this beautifully with a great tattoo design.

precious memory

You and your partner can capture special memories on each other, like this little polaroid photo of the couple kissing. It can be the same angle or even the same event from different angles.

paper planes

This is a great idea. Paper airplanes are childish, simple, clean and very romantic. How they float in the air, like your heart when you see them smile. It's great for fingers, toes, and ankles.

Matching arm tattoos

Wow! The tattoo idea is very cool. Starting with the woman's hand, it flows into the man's hand ... but only when they are holding hands. Oh, and each tattoo looks great on its own. Absolutely perfect.

Live like Jack and Sally

Whether you're a fan of The Nightmare Before Christmas or Blink-182 (or both), this cute tattoo idea is great for you and your partner. You will need a talented tattoo artist to capture their likeness.

I am Groot

If you ever needed to use a heart-eye emoji…now is the time! This is an adorable tattoo design for couples. You don't need to use Groot - just choose any character you like.

5 tattoo ideas for a married couple

Getting married is an amazing thing. Your wedding may even be the biggest event of your life (and if not, we hope your honeymoon will be!), so why not get a tattoo to celebrate?

I love you sweet

These sweet red words translate to "I love you dear". Why not get a small tattoo of your wedding vows here instead? This is a great way to get couple tattoos after the wedding.

Tattoo Symbols and Numbers

Why not take the style of this design but use a romantic symbol and your wedding date underneath? You can use the date you met or any other memorable occasion, such as an anniversary.

Married with children

Include your children in your couple's tattoo. This tattoo idea uses a heartbeat with a date to commemorate a special moment for the whole family. We really love how sentimental and useful this tattoo is.

No matter what

Getting married is like making a vow no matter what. Despite the best and the worst, you will stick together. That's what this tattoo could represent! It's a great way to remind yourself of what's important in life.

Font Mismatch

Cute design that looks great on the wrists or ankles. For him, she is the only woman he loves. For her, he is the one she dreamed of. This is an unbearably romantic sign of their love.

5 couple name tattoo ideas

Anyone can get a heart tattoo on their shoulder... but get your partner's name tattooed on yourself? This is the highest sign of devotion.

Heart initials

Sometimes a classic idea is best, like these matching tattoos. By using the first initial of their name inside a heart, they instantly created a connection and promise through their tattoo design. This is a wonderful romantic symbol.

Script Initials

Tattoo your partner's initials on your arm and have your partner tattoo you. This is a really cute couple tattoo and we love the tiny red heart embedded in the middle. It's cute and romantic.

Tattoos with names on the forearm

We love the script of these tattoos and how well they flow into the heartbeat and cross. This is also a great couple tattoo for newlyweds. You can also enter the wedding date.

Big and bold font

When you love someone, you will want to shout it from the rooftops. Well, COVID restrictions have made it harder... but you can still safely tattoo their name on your body!

Additional symbolism

In addition to the name, there are many possibilities to decorate your new ink with beautiful designs. This tattoo uses a feather and birds to create a symbol of eternity. What symbols will you use?

10 ideas for paired finger tattoos

Small finger tattoos are a great way to say "I love you". Every time you hold hands, it's an opportunity to match your matching tattoos.

Perfect finger shape

This couple has rose tattoos on their arms, but the size and shape of this design perfect instead go on your toes. And what better symbol of love than a classic rose?

Join together

Get one half of the design on your finger and your partner will get the other. Only when you are together can you see the whole tattoo! Simple symbols like love hearts and stars work great here.

Thin line hearts

The location on the inside of your finger is important - it's not easy to see, so if keeping your relationship more private is important to you, think carefully about the location. Oh, and cute hearts.

XOXO

Hugs and kisses are coming your way! The key to finger tattoos is to keep them short and cute. Well, it doesn't get much shorter than that. X for kisses and O for hugs is the perfect symbol.

The place he suggested

The Eiffel Tower is not only a symbol of Paris, the city of love and romance, but also the place where this guy proposed to his girlfriend! This is a romantic finger tattoo for couples.

Romance? No, thanks.

We love this tattoo because who said couple tattoos have to be roses and love hearts? These identical skulls show a different, deeper and darker love. And we really like it! So unique.

overlapping hearts

Three overlapping hearts is a neat way to make a cliché heart tattoo a little unique. Placement on a finger works, but it would also look good in a larger size, on a wrist or ankle.

Congruent Tattoos

Congruence is agreement, coincidence, and bending to be one and the same. What is the best symbol for a relationship? We think it's really neat when written in ink. You can also use zodiac signs in this finger tattoo location.

Koi fish

Thumbs are not as popular for couple tattoos as fingers. But this couple koi fish tattoo shows that it can still be a great place to get a tattoo with your partner. Koi fish are great too.

Finger initials

A simple letter can have so much meaning! This is a really beautiful tattoo. When you only tattoo one letter on your skin, font choice is the most important decision. Artists give great advice!

5 Gay Couple Tattoo Ideas

The beauty of tattoos is that anyone can get them. Age, sexual orientation, race… none of this can stop you from decorating your body with ink to celebrate your relationship.

Four-leaf clover

Did you know that the four leaf clover is a symbol of gay rights in Uruguay? This is a beautiful matching tattoo that can be done with your partner! Notice the initials around the clover. So cute.

for women

We love this tattoo. It celebrates femininity and romance. The line work is thin and strong. This is the perfect tattoo idea to celebrate your lesbian love. We would love it even more if it was mirrored.

Always

This gay couple immortalized their love by getting "always" tattooed on each other. It's very romantic and shows their commitment to each other. We love it and wish them great happiness in their long and fulfilling life together.

male beauty

This tattoo is absolutely sublime. We love that the clear lines of the patterns emphasize the beauty of masculinity. This is an idea, a matching tattoo to celebrate your gay love for each other. You can add watercolor splashes in the form of a rainbow.

love hearts

Prove that love is love! This tattoo is used by gay couples, straight couples, and all other types of couples (or triads, or... the list is endless). The heart of love is a universal symbol among all people.

5 Couples King and Queen Tattoo Ideas

The king and queen tattoo idea is a classic. He has a king tattoo and she has a queen tattoo. Together your love reigns! Check out these 5 ideas.

King and Queen of Hearts

Simple crowns over a stylized heart. It's very simple, but the meaning is incredibly obvious when they match. Give your loved one this tattoo to show that they have won your love.

sketch crowns

AQ under one crown and K under another. This is a really cool king and queen tattoo idea for couples! Good placements include the hip, wrist, ankle, and thigh. You could color it too.

Names and crowns

This is a great idea. Why not get a tattoo with your partner's name and a crown over it? It still has the king and queen theme, but it's a little more personal and romantic.

Various placements

Even though the tattoos match, their placement doesn't always have to be the same. We love that this king and queen style tattoo set works so well even though they are far apart on the bodies.

10 Minimalist Couple Tattoo Ideas

The minimalist tattoo trend is here to stay and this is a great style for couple tattoo ideas. Here are 10 of our favorite styles that will spark your imagination.

Love Birds

These cute puffin tattoos celebrate many happy years of marriage! We love the simple design and simple colors. We also think the placement is epic - the same spot on both hands works really well.

Simple forms

These very simple and elegant triangles speak volumes. Did you know that the triangle is the strongest shape? That says a lot about their relationship! The appropriate shape and placement on the back foot is ideal.

Symbolic inscription

The caption for this Instagram-posted tattoo image reads: "999 represents the transformation of any hell, any bad situation, or any struggle you're going through into something positive." This is the exact opposite of the devilish 666!

Geometric deer

Two deer (buck) in this cute geometric style make for a stunning minimalist couple tattoo! We love the subtle differences and similarities that make it obvious that these matching deer tattoos are meant for a romantic couple.

simple line drawing

This tattoo is great for siblings and couples as it has more of a friendly than a romantic feel to it. We think the style is cool though. It's better than getting a portrait of their face!

Superman and Wonder Woman

An iconic duet and a brilliant pair tattoo idea. You could enlarge the symbols and color them in, but we think this minimalist logo style is much cooler and nicer. Choose any iconic duet!

long distance relationship tattoo

Wherever life takes you, this tattoo will always bind you together. This is a great tattoo to get for a long distance relationship or just when you go on your first vacation together - keep the memories forever.

Sunset or sunrise?

Whether it's reminiscent of a romantic sunset or a symbolic sunrise, this minimal couple tattoo is really cute. It will also look great in a lot of places, so it's really quite a flexible design for inking.

Matching armbands

This tattoo is like wearing matching jewelry. It doesn't have a romantic vibe or cute imagery of pigeon hearts, but it's great for couples nonetheless. A symbol that you really sympathize with your romantic relationship.

Heart shaped pomegranates

Two lovers with identical tattoos. So cute! When your love for each other is so strong that it becomes explosive, this is the tattoo you will want to get.
