As the ultimate pet lover, you may be seeking ways to include your special four-legged family member in your upcoming nuptials.

 

While it may not be possible, if your service is being held in a church or temple, to incorporate your pooch in the actual ceremony, there are still a few options that will allow your furry friend to be a part of your celebration.

 

If your wedding is being held at a park, beach or other outdoor venue, and if think you can trust him not to eat or run away with it, have your little pooch stand up as your ring bearer. You can accomplish this by tying the rings to his collar with an easily loosened ribbon or by placing the rings in a small basket attached to the collar.

 

Include your pet in the wedding invitation by having using verbiage such as, “John Smith and Mary Jones along with Sparky the Bulldog, request your presence…” Include paw prints in the invitation’s theme and envelope.

 

How about a flower “dog” to walk down the aisle with your flower girl? Simply tie a small basket of rose petals to Spot’s collar and have your flower girl reach in the basket for the petals to scatter along the way.

 

Arrange for your photographer to capture photos of the happy couple along with little Sparky in a top hat and “tails.”

 

Purchase a custom, personalized wedding cake topper that includes a miniature figurine of your pet or pets. Custom pet wedding cake toppers are available in just about every breed and are a unique way to express your love for each other and your special pet.
