Ask most dog owners and they’ll tell you that their pets are like members of their family, which is why incorporating their furry friends in the most important day of their lives is a no brainer!
If you’re thinking of including your dog into your wedding festivities, you may not know how to incorporate him or her into your ceremony. Check out a few of these ideas from Nanina’s In the Park to ensure that your canine companion is a fixture in your wedding plans.
1. Make your pooch a part of the wedding party
A simple way to get your dog involved in the fun is to make him or her a member of the wedding party. Pick up a collar or piece of canine outerwear in the same shade as your bridesmaid dresses or groomsman ties, and your dog will match right in!
2. Ring bearer
What better way to incorporate your dog, as well as create plenty of fabulous photo opportunities, than having your pet become the ring bearer! Simply hang the rings around your dog’s neck with a decorative tag and you’ll have an adorable addition to your ceremony.
3. Usher
A simple way to get your dog involved is to make him or her a de factor usher. While he or she may not be showing guests to their seats, you can place your dog at the entrance of your venue so guests can stop and say hello as they make their way inside. A great idea is to place a small welcome sign in front of your dog to showcase your creative flair and create a great photo op that your guests will love.
Ultimately, there are nearly unlimited ways that you can bring your dog into your wedding ceremony, so use our ideas as inspiration to ensure that your companion plays an active role in your special day!
