Are you incorporating your pet in the ceremony?

We plan to! Our pup is going to be our ring bearer. Couldn't see my wedding without my pup ❤️

This is something me and my FH have been debating as well. Our fur baby is our pride and joy but she wouldn't be allowed in the reception space and we live 1 hour and 30 minutes away from our venue so we would have to board her (which I'm not a fan of). But since you live so close and you can drop your fur baby off I definitely recommend including Charlie! If we lived closer Ellie would 100% be in our wedding!

Also give Charlie some belly rubs for me, he looks like the goodest boy ever!

We won’t be able to have our pets in the ceremony (plus one of our pups is much too crazy for that, he would be a mess!) but we are planning to have pictures done with them either before or after the ceremony! We will be boarding in the town we get married in since ours is a DW in alabama (we would’ve had to board them in IN anyway). I prefer to board them in the same town we’re staying instead of >8 hours away in case something happens so I can be right there

I so want to. But our dog is a bit hyper and crazy; he is also a mama's boy so we are afraid he would jump all over me and possibly ruin my dress. So it's for the best that he stay home for the wedding. I need to find a pet sitter lol

I wish mine were calm enough to be there but they are still young, so I made cardboard cut outs of them both to sit next to our sweetheart table.

We wanted to include both of our pups in our ceremony, but thought it maybe more of a hassle. So, we ended up doing photos with them right after our first look! The photos turned out so great (they are some of our favorites!) and ended up being a good compromise as a way to include them.

View Quoted Comment Aw i bet that was so sweet!

View Quoted Comment My baby is a hard core mamas boy! I didn’t think about that!

View Quoted Comment That still sounds so special ❤️

View Quoted Comment Thank you haha. My dogs hate them😂

We got fatheads of our pup off Etsy to use in the photo booth!

Such a cute idea!! I wish we could have our babies there with us, but they'll be there in spirit! I ordered socks for the groomsmen with their faces on them to incorporate them in a fun way!

My pup was our "petal security" after she greeted everyone. We hid a busy bone in the flower girls basket so the pup was focused, had a cute collar and leash, gave the bone to her during the ceremony(along with new dog puzzle), then after pics she went with our pet sitter( she is also our awsome vet tech) to the park then home, who was there all day before this (well everyone was getting ready) to let the pup out, make sure it had food/water, ect. Now to be fair she is a 8 yr old ausie shepherd who has been to every family party, so old enough to be calm and smart enough to know how to behave for a price.

We have two rescues! We bought them little tux from Etsy with a clip so they can carry the rings
