SHOULD YOU BRING YOUR DOG TO THE WEDDING?

You may have noticed from my photos and Instagram feed that I adore dogs. I have two very large fur babies at home - Ollie and Wilson - and I love to take them everywhere with me.

Here are a couple of ways to incorporate the other love of your life into the wedding day.

πŸΆπŸ“· Have them with you during the getting ready portion of the day.

This gives us the opportunity to have your pup be a part of your wedding day photos but then he can stay safely home/at hotel.

πŸΆπŸ“· Assign a dog handler to bring them to a pre-determined location for photos. This person is 100% in charge of the dogs for the day and then can be ready and waiting for you (and me) when we are ready for them. No worries or hassle for you and a sweet moment during the day when you see your dogs.

πŸΆπŸ“· If you are having an outdoor wedding and it is allowed by the venue, there is nothing cuter than a dog walking down the aisle as a flower girl/ring bearer. Again, the key is to let the dog have its moment... and then have the assigned person be in charge of taking care of the pup so all the focus can be on you.

While we adore our dogs, busy wedding days and pristine white gowns are not always dog-friendly. The good news is that an engagement photo shoot is a perfect place and time to bring them into the wedding plans.β €
