Having a Dog Friendly Wedding Day

I woof! It’s one of the most important days of your life so you’ll want your canine pal by your side. But how can you make it paw-fect for everyone involved?


Many wedding trends come and go, but one that is growing faster than anyone could have imagined is including the family dog on the big day. After all, our dogs are far more than just pets. They are important members of the family.


Plan ahead

But a dog charity is warning couples that they must bone up on what to do if they want their dogs to be part of the big day. The Dogs Trust is urging couples planning to tie the knot with their pooch in tow to think about the day from their dog’s perspective. They recommend planning the day with your dog in mind.


The Dogs Trust suggests: “Make a day plan of events from hour to hour and think about how your dog usually responds to similar situations.”


Making your big day dog-friendly

You are probably looking forward to making your wedding day into a big celebration and want to invite all your friends and family to share it with you. But for the dog that’s a lot of people, and it could be quite overwhelming. To make sure your pooch pal is happy and well-behaved for your big day, invest in a training course so they can learn how to meet new people without barking or biting.


VIP guests

Some people want to go further than just having their dogs with them on their wedding day. They actually give them specific roles to perform on the big day. How about getting your dog to walk down the aisle alongside the bridesmaids or act as a ring bearer? But to ensure your dogs can relax and enjoy the day too, perhaps just save the special time with them for the wedding photos.

If you only knew one thing about me it would be: that I am a sucker for these type of articles. Also, that I’m all for the maximum amount of personalization in weddings. So I’m 1000% for including your dog/cat/possum in your wedding. Ideally, in a very large and involved capacity.
