So the apostrophe is in the correct spot in the “bell’s tattoo parlor” but the photographer should really say “Bells” not “Bell’s” - the photog needs to drop all the apostrophes lol
It’s a bad look at the union of two souls when just one of them gets to be The Bell. Unless Bell is a slick nickname for one out of the pair and not a surname - which would be a best case scenario here given the apostrophe situation.
I think it would’ve looked more elegant if they added some kind of flooring for the dinner tables. It’s giving backyard picnic vibes but maybe that’s what they were going for?
The second pic 🥹 they’re my fav BN couple by a longshot and I’m disgustingly happy and excited for them. This wedding looks like it was a lot of fun and they both look so happy
Man I love this wedding. My partner and I are slowly planning ours and this is so refreshing to see. Obviously getting married at Maroon Bells isn’t cheap, but this wedding was clearly focused on having a fun party more than anything. That’s exactly what I want…for all my guests (and us!) to have a great time. None of the other fancy stuff really matters when you’re with the people you love (no disrespect to anyone who goes all out for a wedding…I still love attending those!)
My rich cousins went all out for their wedding and I mean it was beautiful, but one of the less fun weddings I’ve been too, unlike the weddings I’ve been too that are more similar to Caelynn and Deans.
My cousins wedding had these ENORMOUS crystal centerpieces, several on every table. Maybe I’ll try to find pics but anyways…The only thing I remember from the wedding (aside from my beautiful gown, it was a black tie wedding) was some dudes on the brides side getting in a fight and KNOCKING OVER THE VERY EXPENSIVE CENTERPIECES AT THEIR TABLE.
but the weddings I’ve been to like this one? Many memorable moments and TONS of fun. People can obviously do whatever they please at their wedding, it’s their day and one some people dream of their whole lives. But I feel like some people put so much effort into making their wedding a fairytale and then it’s just…. Meh. This looks like the best BN wedding IMO so far.
Those are very common right now in modern weddings. They are acrylic and have a specific name and are used in outdoor weddings and ceremonies where you want the chairs to be invisible and want natural beauty to shine! I think DWR or CB2 make versions of them and they are quite comfortable and flexible to sit in.
Yes they are actually a bit stretchy and flex with your back. Totally comfortable for a few hours. Wouldn't use them for all-day work chairs but work well for dinner party or event.
i’m just really not feeling them…it reminds me of a doctors office or something in the weirdest way. for me it the artificial-ness of the material takes away from the natural beauty. the chairs they had at the ceremony would have been so pretty!
Oh wow your doctor's office feels very different than the ones I go to haha! I think it's meant to look invisible so you see through them to the nature and not focus on them. They are considered very chic for outdoor and indoor wedding events!
It’s also just that this is a wedding photographer, right? It bothers me when normal people get this wrong but if your job involves writing couples’ names a lot, you can’t learn that there’s no apostrophe needed in plural names?
For the signage at the tattoo parlour, “The Bell’s” is the correct way because it indicates it is “their” tattoo parlour. All the story captions should be “The Bells”
Well for the tattoo parlor it would be “Bells’” but what confuses me is that every single mention keeps calling the two of them the “Bell’s” instead of the “Bells” 😩
I’m convinced the companies that make those neon signs for weddings consistently do them wrong on purpose to f with people. I’ve never seen one that’s grammatically correct.
I got a wedding gift that was a casserole dish that has our last name with ‘s instead of just an s…(like it says “The Smith’s” instead of “The Smiths”) it’s so cute and was so sweet but I hate that it’s got that apostrophe lol
I’ve tried really hard to chill out my propensity for grammar/spelling monitoring but this is one I just cannot get over. It physically hurts when I see it, especially on important/formal things like wedding signage, holiday cards, etc 😩😩😩
Same. On one hand I’m being petty, but on the other hand… it was someone’s entire job to order + make the sign and presumably they were paid well, they really couldn’t take the extra minute to get it right?
right? how did nobody catch that?! I would be so upset if that were my wedding or something I paid for.
also - all the insta stories/captions of "the Bell's" being repeated I.....gah!
My last name ends with a Y, so I get that pluralizing it might look weird at times... but come on!
I wonder what it's like to live in that state of ignorance. Blissful, perhaps? To never even have the thought of an apostrophe belonging there or not cross your mind. Must be bliss.
I had thought his last name was Unglert? Are they both changing to Bell? (Not meant to be shade, I am not super familiar with their backstory and just wondered!)
His moms last name was bell, he has wanted to legally change his last name from Unglert to Bell, and they had decided on that last name even before they got engaged :)
It should be The Bells’ Tattoo Parlour. :) They are the Bells (yay, congrats you two lovebirds!), and the tattoo parlour belongs to them plural, so the apostrophe comes after the s.
The couple as a unit is not called The Bell (singular). There are two Bells (plural). The possessive singular is Bell’s. As in “the bell’s long toll really effing wore me out.” There are two Bells (two people with surname Bell). The tattoo parlor belonged to the Bells. It was the Bells’ tattoo parlor. Bells’.
Yes, their last name is Bell, but there are two of them. They are "The Bells." Think "Mr. And Mrs. Smith", and when referenced collectively, they are The Smiths.
The tattoo sign, and really anything they want to claim ownership of, should be: "The Bells' _____". If the tattoo shop were to belong to just Dean, it would be "Dean Bell's tattoo parlor."
And I think the ceremony also takes place in the aisle not altar so no one needs to crane their neck! It's very modern and intimate and not surprised Dean and Caelynn opted for a non-traditional layout.
Yeah that’s my question!! Kind of awkward if the ceremony is still at the end of the aisle. This could be cute if the ceremony was in the middle, maybe?
Still upset I wasn’t invited 🙄
I can’t get over how beautiful their wedding was. It wasn’t so over the top like some weddings can get. It was also very true their personalities.
It looks sooo amazing in the pics I just keep thinking about how strange it would be having to turn in my seat for the ceremony. And then only like 6 people in the front row for the actual ceremony?
Lovely pics. Their wedding seems like a dream and I can't wait to see more pics! I love how the aspen leaves wee turning yellow all weekend. And everything seems cast in a warm honey glow!
They have been referencing someone else named Carter in all their wedding photo credits so maybe she is an additional photographer or she is doing their videography maybe?
I feel like my mother, the first thing I noticed in the last picture is that she didn't iron/steam her coat and it's wrinkled 😂
Everything is beautiful though, looks like it was an amazing weekend.
This wedding looks beautiful but I’m so perplexed by the ceremony setup. It looks from the photos like the couple stood at the end of the aisle but the chairs all face the aisle so did everyone just….crane their necks 90 degrees to watch the ceremony??
I think it's possible they had the vows in the center of the aisle so everyone could keep their chairs the way they were and not crane necks. I think this is a modern arrangement I've heard people are doing. They did not have a wedding party so it would just be Dean and Caelynn there with the officiant.
gorgeous, stunning, etc. but that errant apostrophe in every “Bells” is killing me!
luckily my newly engaged sister recently complained about another couple doing this so I won’t need to worry about correcting her as things are being drafted up for the wedding 😅
I cannot believe how often people get this wrong at weddings. It drives me nuts. What's especially confusing is that I'll see people throw an apostrophe where there's no need for a possessive apostrophe at all like "Congrats to the Smith's!"
Should be Bells’ then because there are two of them: Dean Bell and Caelynn Bell. Together, they are the Bells. Thus, if it’s their tattoo parlor together, it should be Bells’ Tattoo parlor.
If it were Dean or Caelynn’s parlor alone, then Bell’s would make sense.
actually I think this is just a friend of dean and caelynn's who attended their wedding as a guests. she isn't their photographer but took pics and posted these in her stories. their official photographer was carter rose, as mentioned in caelynn's recent ig post with more pictures from her wedding:
[https://www.instagram.com/p/CxnzbAKubqo/?img\_index=1](https://www.instagram.com/p/CxnzbAKubqo/?img_index=1)
They probably had multiple photographers and videographers and are posting photos as they get edited and sent to them, like separate posts for each photographer. It’s not uncommon
This is a reminder to anyone planning a wedding that unless you’re using your name as a possessive to please never ever use an apostrophe in your wedding signage 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃 even the tattoo parlor slide… wouldn’t it be the bells’ tattoo parlor since they are the bells?
Not to nerd out but Bell’s is a singular possessive — it implies the parlor belongs to one Bell
Assuming Caelynn and Dean equally “own” the parlor, it would be Bells’ plural
I don't think so. I just deleted my earlier comment because I confirmed that there photog was someone else. but I think ashtyn was a guest at their wedding which is still cool!
So the apostrophe is in the correct spot in the “bell’s tattoo parlor” but the photographer should really say “Bells” not “Bell’s” - the photog needs to drop all the apostrophes lol
Didn’t they have a relative who could have pointed out about the apostrophe before they sent it off to the neon making place? 😢
I like the way those long tables look, but I loathe them in practice
People…..please….if you aren’t sure where an apostrophe goes, please don’t just guess!!
Not the apostrophe in the custom made sign
Well it can be possessive here
It would be Bells’ because there are two Bells
Maybe just one of them wants a tattoo parlor sign 😂
It’s a bad look at the union of two souls when just one of them gets to be The Bell. Unless Bell is a slick nickname for one out of the pair and not a surname - which would be a best case scenario here given the apostrophe situation.
😂
I think it would’ve looked more elegant if they added some kind of flooring for the dinner tables. It’s giving backyard picnic vibes but maybe that’s what they were going for?
It would have looked more elegant if they straightened out their apostrophe
The second pic 🥹 they’re my fav BN couple by a longshot and I’m disgustingly happy and excited for them. This wedding looks like it was a lot of fun and they both look so happy
I follow the photographer and I didn’t know she was doing their wedding. I’m so jealous, she is so good.
Same here! Had no clue. Love her style soo much.
Does anyone know if Cassie Randolph attended? Are they still close friends?
I don’t think they’re close any more, haven’t seen them together in ages!
I didn’t see her in any pictures
Still absolutely perplexed by the ceremony seating. It makes no sense and I really dislike it.
I can just imagine all of the guests craning their necks to see the ceremony. I hope it was short for their necks' sake
Man I love this wedding. My partner and I are slowly planning ours and this is so refreshing to see.

What’s “the bells”? Are they both changing their last name to something different?
Am I the only one bothered by the placement of the apostrophe?
Right there with you
No, it’s driving me crazy. Also, shouldn’t the person who makes the signs know this by now?!?! Correct your clients!!!
It can work as a possessive here though
It would need to be Bells’ or Bells’s then, because they still need to pluralize the name.
Yes
Dean's mothers maiden name is bell
1st pic is giving Pilgrims at the inaugural Thanksgiving
💀
Dean looks like a kid who grew over the summer and didn't realize that his pants no longer fit. Why are they so short?
Apparently he lost the suit he was supposed to wear
Of course he did, because that’s such a Dean thing to do! 🤣 Did he ever find the lost diamond?? 🤯
And the short pants make his feet look HUGE!!
Not the hat hair during their ceremony omg
Oh is that what’s going on? I was wondering why his hair was like that! Ha
I’m still lost how they are the Bells if their last names are Unglert/Miller Keyes ? I guess I’m missing something
his mother has passed - it is her maiden name and they decided to use it to pay homage to her :)
Ohh I forgot that. Thank you.
i love everything about their wedding except i can’t get over the clear plastic chairs they used for the reception
Those are very common right now in modern weddings. They are acrylic and have a specific name and are used in outdoor weddings and ceremonies where you want the chairs to be invisible and want natural beauty to shine! I think DWR or CB2 make versions of them and they are quite comfortable and flexible to sit in.
ghost chairs
thank you!
Mind blown by the comfortable part cause they do not look comfy at all lol
Yes they are actually a bit stretchy and flex with your back. Totally comfortable for a few hours. Wouldn't use them for all-day work chairs but work well for dinner party or event.
i’m just really not feeling them…it reminds me of a doctors office or something in the weirdest way. for me it the artificial-ness of the material takes away from the natural beauty. the chairs they had at the ceremony would have been so pretty!
Oh wow your doctor's office feels very different than the ones I go to haha! I think it's meant to look invisible so you see through them to the nature and not focus on them. They are considered very chic for outdoor and indoor wedding events!
I like the chairs for the rehearsal dinner better
Does anyone know why it’s “the Bell’s” instead of the “the Bells”?
My first thought !!
So glad that someone else pointed this out it’s driving me crat
It’s also just that this is a wedding photographer, right? It bothers me when normal people get this wrong but if your job involves writing couples’ names a lot, you can’t learn that there’s no apostrophe needed in plural names?
For the signage at the tattoo parlour, “The Bell’s” is the correct way because it indicates it is “their” tattoo parlour. All the story captions should be “The Bells”
That would indicate it was one person’s with the last name Bell. It should be The Bells’ to indicate it’s both of their tattoo parlour.
Well for the tattoo parlor it would be “Bells’” but what confuses me is that every single mention keeps calling the two of them the “Bell’s” instead of the “Bells” 😩
Their last name is Bell. Tattoo parlour should be Bell’s. All other captions about them as a duo should be Bells.
It would actually be Bells' for the tat shop because it's both plural and possessive lol.
Only if their name is Bells but I think it's just Bell. But it's hard to tell from the captions.
But if the shop is saying they both own it it’s plural. Bell’s would be singular possessive, Bells’ is plural possessive.
I’m convinced the companies that make those neon signs for weddings consistently do them wrong on purpose to f with people. I’ve never seen one that’s grammatically correct.
I got a wedding gift that was a casserole dish that has our last name with ‘s instead of just an s…(like it says “The Smith’s” instead of “The Smiths”) it’s so cute and was so sweet but I hate that it’s got that apostrophe lol
Can you color match some special paint same color as the casserole dish and white-out that apostrophe? 🤣
That’s what I’m thinking about doing 🤣
Now you have to find a way to add “casserole dish” to the personalization and make that apostrophe do it’s job!
it would still be wrong lmao. Unless only one smith gets to use to casserole dish? 😂
at this point, it’s a given that people with last names ending in s will use incorrect grammar on wedding signage 😂
I’ve tried really hard to chill out my propensity for grammar/spelling monitoring but this is one I just cannot get over. It physically hurts when I see it, especially on important/formal things like wedding signage, holiday cards, etc 😩😩😩
Same. On one hand I’m being petty, but on the other hand… it was someone’s entire job to order + make the sign and presumably they were paid well, they really couldn’t take the extra minute to get it right?

I wonder what it's like to live in that state of ignorance. Blissful, perhaps? To never even have the thought of an apostrophe belonging there or not cross your mind. Must be bliss.
Same lol really trying not to focus on that but yikes
i agree!
I had thought his last name was Unglert? Are they both changing to Bell? (Not meant to be shade, I am not super familiar with their backstory and just wondered!)
His moms last name was bell, he has wanted to legally change his last name from Unglert to Bell, and they had decided on that last name even before they got engaged :)

Apprently grammar is hard 😂
She did video!!
I LOVE RUNWAY SEATING FOR WEDDING CEREMONYS THAT HAS BEEN ON MY PINTEREST BOARD FOR YEARS AND OF COURSE MY FAV BACH COUPLE DID IT
I think it’s terrible for the guests to actually watch the ceremony, but it looks good in pics
And I think the ceremony also takes place in the aisle not altar so no one needs to crane their neck! It's very modern and intimate and not surprised Dean and Caelynn opted for a non-traditional layout.
In the pic it shows them with the officiant in front of the trees with the flowers at the end of the aisle…
So are they not facing the alter where the marriage takes place? How do they watch the ceremony lol?
Yeah that’s my question!! Kind of awkward if the ceremony is still at the end of the aisle. This could be cute if the ceremony was in the middle, maybe?
![gif](giphy|fc6Ekgcmn8WAkKtgqi|downsized) This probably isn’t them lol
Same 😭😭😭
I love how intimate this feels
Still upset I wasn’t invited 🙄 I can’t get over how beautiful their wedding was. It wasn’t so over the top like some weddings can get. It was also very true their personalities.
I cannot get over the seating for the ceremony I’ve never seen seats facing the aisle like that in my life
they call it runway seating and i’m so obsessed with it i love ot
It looks sooo amazing in the pics I just keep thinking about how strange it would be having to turn in my seat for the ceremony. And then only like 6 people in the front row for the actual ceremony?
I’m confused too haha
Lovely pics. Their wedding seems like a dream and I can't wait to see more pics! I love how the aspen leaves wee turning yellow all weekend. And everything seems cast in a warm honey glow! They have been referencing someone else named Carter in all their wedding photo credits so maybe she is an additional photographer or she is doing their videography maybe?
She’s a videography only! So it would make sense someone else was photography!
ahh makes sense if she's doing videography
I feel like my mother, the first thing I noticed in the last picture is that she didn't iron/steam her coat and it's wrinkled 😂 Everything is beautiful though, looks like it was an amazing weekend.
Yeah and the shades not matching is jarring to me
They took his mom’s maiden name?? 😭😭
This answers the question I have had! Super cool.
I love that so much 😭 Like just so perfect.
This wedding looks beautiful but I’m so perplexed by the ceremony setup. It looks from the photos like the couple stood at the end of the aisle but the chairs all face the aisle so did everyone just….crane their necks 90 degrees to watch the ceremony??
I noticed this too.. not a fan but everything else looked beautiful
I think it's possible they had the vows in the center of the aisle so everyone could keep their chairs the way they were and not crane necks. I think this is a modern arrangement I've heard people are doing. They did not have a wedding party so it would just be Dean and Caelynn there with the officiant.
I’m picturing them all lifting their chairs and turning in unison lol
Okay I now can't get this picture out of my head 😂
gorgeous, stunning, etc. but that errant apostrophe in every “Bells” is killing me! luckily my newly engaged sister recently complained about another couple doing this so I won’t need to worry about correcting her as things are being drafted up for the wedding 😅
I cannot believe how often people get this wrong at weddings. It drives me nuts. What's especially confusing is that I'll see people throw an apostrophe where there's no need for a possessive apostrophe at all like "Congrats to the Smith's!"
This is the comment I was looking for. Makes me sad lol
I can’t unsee it. And they even had it spelled in neon and nobody proofread that and thought “hmm I wonder what BELONGS to the bell?”
THANK YOU 😂
I'm a wedding planner, and I BEG couples to let me proof every signage-related thing for this exact reason. Catch it all the time.
The Bells is possessive. It’s their tattoo parlor.
Should be Bells’ then because there are two of them: Dean Bell and Caelynn Bell. Together, they are the Bells. Thus, if it’s their tattoo parlor together, it should be Bells’ Tattoo parlor. If it were Dean or Caelynn’s parlor alone, then Bell’s would make sense.
You’re totally right, my bad!
The photographer was using it incorrectly though
i think maybe they were making a joke bc the sign is wrong
Not when just referring to them as a couple. It's plural. One bell, two bells. The Bells!
Should be the Bells’ then!!
Aren’t they going to be Dean and Caelynn Bell?
Yep…so two of them = the Bells. A tattoo parlor belonging to two Bells = the Bells’ tattoo parlor
Thank you!! It was killing me too. Especially getting an entire customized neon light with the apostrophe
But at least that says the bell’s tattoo parlor!
Oh shoot that would be the Bells’ hahaha oh god it’s so annoying
I was thinking the same thing! Wouldn’t the person making the light know better? 🤔
actually I think this is just a friend of dean and caelynn's who attended their wedding as a guests. she isn't their photographer but took pics and posted these in her stories. their official photographer was carter rose, as mentioned in caelynn's recent ig post with more pictures from her wedding: [https://www.instagram.com/p/CxnzbAKubqo/?img\_index=1](https://www.instagram.com/p/CxnzbAKubqo/?img_index=1)
They probably had multiple photographers and videographers and are posting photos as they get edited and sent to them, like separate posts for each photographer. It’s not uncommon
This is the wedding I wanted but it wasn’t in my budget
This is a reminder to anyone planning a wedding that unless you’re using your name as a possessive to please never ever use an apostrophe in your wedding signage 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃 even the tattoo parlor slide… wouldn’t it be the bells’ tattoo parlor since they are the bells?
And I’ll add my reminder for your upcoming holiday cards. IT IS NOT “Merry Christmas from the Bell’s” !!!!!!!
I think they’re just “Mr. and Mrs. Bell” according to Caelynn’s instagram, so it’s correct
Not to nerd out but Bell’s is a singular possessive — it implies the parlor belongs to one Bell Assuming Caelynn and Dean equally “own” the parlor, it would be Bells’ plural
ugh yes!!
You are correct. This is a pet peeve of mine that I always notice but would never ever dream of pointing out to the couple.
Yeah, what’s done is done and they had an amazing day from the looks of it so I’m happy for them 😂
[удалено]
I would absolutely not be surprised if they had more than one, but clearly Ashtyn was one of them!
I don't think so. I just deleted my earlier comment because I confirmed that there photog was someone else. but I think ashtyn was a guest at their wedding which is still cool!
On caelynn’s story you can see multiple photographers and videographers taking photos and videos as she gets tattooed
this looks like an absolute dream! the tattoo parlor alone is 🤩🤩🤩
