Your wedding day is a momentous occasion. You’ve met the love of your life, got engaged, and are now tying the knot. Congratulations! Your wedding day is a beautiful time to bring everyone important together to celebrate your love, even your furry friends!
Why should your pet attend your wedding?
If your pet is your best fur-iend and them not being a part of your day brings tears to your eyes, then you have your answer. Your pet is there for you every day. Through the good times, the rough patches, and the melding of your two hearts together. They’ve been there with you through it all and your wedding day shouldn’t be any different.
Your pet is a part of your family too. Incorporating them into your wedding day just makes sense, but how? We’ve got five ideas on how you can easily make your pup a part of your big day.
1. Dapper Doggos
Weddings tend to be formal occasions and guests are accustomed to attending dressed to the nines. Dressing your dog is not only fun but it’ll ensure lots of “ohhs” and “ahhs” when guests see them arrive! Go for a tux bandana for a sharp look at a formal wedding. Or opt for a greenery collar wreath for a softer touch to your sweet pup.
2. In With the Party
Your wedding party is comprised of your closest friends and family members which means your pupper should be in on the party too! Incorporate them into your big day by taking pictures with your whole wedding party and your furry friend.
3. Down the Aisle
Have your pet involved in the wedding ceremony by having them walk you down the aisle. Guests will love seeing their expression and excitement!

4. Dance
Does your doggo have some dance moves or have tricks they like to perform in front of others? Have an extra sweet first dance as a family! Practicing with your pet leading up to the day-of will make this moment perfect.
5. Family Portrait
No matter how you decide to include your hound in your special day, make sure to document it! Include them in all your photos taken throughout the day. Plan ahead for this by giving your photographer a heads up. They may have some tricks up their sleeve for getting pets to cooperate or look to the camera when taking photos.
