SP*: Want to include your pet in your wedding?

Jun 24, 2010


I love, love, love when couples decide to include their pet in their big day {and it helps if they're as cute as the ones above - can you get over those two King Cavaliers?!?}

Whether you simply have your pup on hand during the ceremony ... maybe your groom or a special attendant walks him/her down the aisle or you have your pup stand in as the ringbearer ... or you take your beloved pet on your honeymoon with you, I find it such an incredibly sweet sentiment to include them just as you would your family and friends.

A simple collar made of flowers, pearls or just a pretty ribbon makes a lovely and festive statement without being too over-the-top. 

If we could have figured out a way to train our fluffy Norwegian Forest cat, Sammy, to walk down the aisle on a grosgrain leash, we would have included him in a heartbeat ... Alas, he's much too shy for such interaction. ;o)

But we have been busy making arrangements to take our special little kitty with us to Europe and I thought I'd share with you the lovely little carrier we found to keep him comfy and happy during his transport - it would work equally well for transporting your pet to your wedding venue or taking him/her along on your honeymoon! CSN Stores sent me this cute Sherpa carrier to review {shown below} and we've already begun getting Sammy used to it. It's soft and cozy and he loves hopping in it to catnap! My husband doesn't love that it's pink for our little boy but I think Sammy has enough flair to pull it off well. Ha. ;o)
Okay, I can't go on and on about our little love and not share a photo so here he is in all his fluffy glory {enjoying a treat a few years ago!}:

  1. Just last year my sister was married, and they decided to put their bichon frise in the wedding, as ring bearer! They dressed him up in a cute lil tux, here's an image

  2. I think it's pretty cool for pets to be a part of a wedding. Aside from their cuteness, they simply look adorable in wedding photos as props, especially if you dress them up in suits and with flower garlands on their necks.
