The dog days of weddings

Aw that sounds super cute! So happy that you get to include him in your wedding and that's going to make for some great pics!

Haha that is too funny! And my kitties would likely just go sit with people and purr. They tend to forget about their owners when other people are around as they like to explore and meet new people! They will be staying home!

This is such a cute idea Kait!! I love it! He's such a cutie!! How old will be the junior's groomsmen who will accompany him?

Welcome to the community by the way!! You seem to have great ideas for your wedding!! Where are you at in your preparations?

Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear that Chelsea! I'm glad you now have your two kitties!
You could still have your own cats of honours!!

Look at this one! So cute!

Will your cats be staying at home for the wedding?

Awhhhh look at him! what a cutie!

This little one is going to be our ring bearer! We're going to have him "get ready" with the guys in the morning, he'll hang out with the groomsmen until the ceremony and then we have a junior groomsman to walk him down the aisle. Afterwards we have a family friend to come grab him and take him away.

What a cutie! I can see why you wouldn't want her at your wedding! My parents have a rescue dog as well and she is getting better with having people around her but she still runs away a lot, hides in her cage, paces around the house and seems nervous quite often. New situations also are not good for her! So I think you made the right choice in not bringing her along!

At least she will be with you in spirit! If she isn't "chill enough" like you mentioned, you wouldn't want her running around and taking away from your special day! Sounds like the dog sitter is the best option for you!

My dog actually had to be put down a couple of years ago and currently where I live we aren't supposed to have dogs so for now I have my 2 kitties! So I won't be having a dog come to my wedding!

I really like this idea Chelsea!! This is so cute!

I love the pictures where pets are like family!!!

I created this discussion with ideas too:

What role would you give your dog on your wedding day?

What about you? Is your dog coming to the wedding?

Dog sitter for us I just didn't want to deal with the logistics of having to keep an eye on her all the time, our puppy isn't chill enough yet (or likely ever)

She's so freaking cute Sam!!! I get it, we're only an hour or so drive and the dog will be with us the few days before the wedding that we are there but for the wedding it just didn't work logistically work

We would have loved to have our dog with us for our wedding day but logistically it didn't make sense. We're having a destination wedding and we're flying up and then driving back so that would have been hard on her. She would have been in a foreign environment leading up to the wedding which would be stressful. We would have had to find a hotel that allows pets. Also she's a rescue so she's not super friendly to strangers so I don't think she would have liked all the people! She definitely wouldn't have made it down the aisle as she tends to be skittish. We'll miss her but she'll be with us in spirit!
