Mena Suvari’s Big Wedding Dress Dilemma

If you’re a bride-to-be hoping to hide your many tattoos from your more conservative family members on your wedding day, actress Mena Suvari can relate. According to AceShowbiz.com, the actress, who’s engaged to music producer Simone Sestito, recently revealed that she’s going for a custom made wedding gown that will hopefully hide her various tattoos.

Why so shy about her body art all of a sudden? She wants to be respectful of her future hubby’s family members.

“I think it would be considerate to [his] family to have my tattoos covered, since there are two nuns on his mother’s side of the family.”

We think that’s a good call, Mena! It’s always nice to start your marriage off on the right foot with the family. Suvari has also recently been quoted as saying that her wedding will happen sometime next year because she and her fiancé want to make sure the moment is as special as it should be. The pair met at the Toronto Film Festival in 2007 and got engaged in July 2008. This Suvari’s second marriage – she was previously married to cinematographer Robert Brinkmann.
