A: Brides and grooms who can’t foresee getting through this special day without all family members represented are finding ways of incorporating pets into their ceremony.
The easiest duty given to dogs is that of ringbearer. With a silk or velvet pillow tied around his neck, and the ring placed securely atop the pillow, any dog capable of finding his master should perform ably when called upon. You can also incorporate your pet as a flower girl, or even as a bridesmaid or groomsman. It might be advisable to enroll the dog in a training school to find out what your dog might learn to do.
Many churches or other religious institutions might not allow animals inside their doors, so it is essential that the bride or groom check with their ceremony location before planning on using a pet as the ringbearer. But for a ceremony that takes place in a park or a home (perhaps even a hotel), a pet can bring special meaning to the event, particularly when the bride or groom has grown up with the furry friend.
