Dog-Day Celebration: Pups Join the Wedding Party
For some, dogs are part of the family. It makes sense to include them in your wedding day, and it doesn’t hurt that adorable doggie tuxedos and pet-friendly hotel rooms exist.
“Including your pup in your nuptials is a great idea,” says Nicole White, co-owner of On The Nose Events in Stanton Heights (onthenoseevents.com).
There are some things to consider, though, before you decide to parade your pooches on your big day. “If [the couple wants] to incorporate their dogs, they definitely need to plan for it and think through the ‘what-ifs,’” says Ashley Moss, owner of Hello Productions in Lawrenceville (helloproductions.com).
