Destination Wedding Planner: How to include your dog in your wedding day

Posted by on October 22nd, 2014

If you are thinking about including your best fury friend in your wedding plans, here are some tips for you:

The first thing to consider is the personality of your dog.  If the event will be more stressful than fun for your dog, you may want to weigh in how important it is to include him or her.

If you have decided that Fido is in fact going to make an appearance, the next thing you want to do is make sure that dogs are allowed at your wedding venue.

Make sure you arrange for care before, during, and after the ceremony and reception, so a handler has specific responsibility for your dog at all times.

Make sure to have an exit plan if they can’t sit through the ceremony, or things don’t go as expected on the wedding day.

One last thing is you might consider wedding insurance, especially with a dog in attendance.

To many of us, our dogs are such an important part of our lives.  To celebrate such a life changing event without our furbabies there to share in the love just wouldn’t seem right!
