Pets In A Wedding?

Have you ever been to a wedding where the family pet was part of the wedding party?  Did the groom dogs wear a tuxedo shirt? How were they incorporated into the actual wedding ceremony?

I have been to one wedding where the dog was included in the wedding party.  It has been some time ago, but I believe the dog was the ring bearer.  Just about the only thing I can remember about that wedding is that the dog came down the aisle at one point.

Would you ever include your pets in your wedding?  I know there are going to be differing view points on this topic, but I am interested to see both sides of it.  I personally would not include my dog – she is way too hyper and she has too much trouble focusing.  Plus I think it is an event I would want to keep with my family and friends.  Don’t get me wrong….I love my dog as much as anyone, but I just think my wedding day would be just fine without her, and I don’t really think she would understand what was going on.

Ok – I’m all done talking about my opinion on this – let’s hear yours!  The comments are open – please leave them!

Thanks for reading!  As always your participation in comments and discussions are encouraged and greatly appreciated!!

    I love the idea myself.. however.. that said.. I don’t know if it’s very practical.. Be a pretty quick ring-bearer portion as I’m sure my hounds would run up the isle!

    Hmm.. funny picture in my head of Hunter and Bella (my 2 beagles) walking down the isle.. ha ha ha..

    Amusing topic :P

    A lot of people consider their pets to be part of the family and even a best friend. It makes perfect sense for a well behaved pet to be part of the big day.
