It’s a YES for us!🐾💕

🐾We love having a furry friend or 2 at weddings! And we highly recommend having someone like Cardross Pet Services there on the day though to help!💕 if you want to find out more get in touch☺️

🐾 Can my dog be part of my wedding?

The short answer is... yes, if your venue allows it!

From walking down the aisle to being the official ring bearer (or simply stealing the show with a wagging tail), many couples choose to include their four-legged family members in their special day.

If you're planning to have your dog join your ceremony, speak to your venue early to understand their policies and make sure your furry friend will be safe, comfortable and happy throughout the day.

Have you included your pet in your wedding, or would you love to? Share your photos below! 🐶💍
