Default Would/did you bring your dog to your wedding?

Question is in the title. If you were to get married (or when you did get married), would you want (or did you have) your dog to be there? If you're already married, tell us why you did or didn't bring your dog and share a story

Our wedding was in our church, so no dogs allowed. Dh's dog did come to the reception, though.

Now that I'm older and have dogs of my own, yes I probably would plan a ceremony that involved them. But I'm not planning on getting married again.

Yes, I would want both of my dogs there.

My wedding took place in a goat pen, with dogs, goats, chickens, turkeys, and a few people in attendance.

Marriage is in the future for me and my bf. We're probably going to do a beach ceremony and have always wanted marley to be involved in some way. However if it's on a beach im sure he will just be scampering around in the waves, hehe.

I have a cousin who lives in Wisconsin. I'm not really sure what he does, but it has something to do with a dam there. He lives in the middle of nowhere. When he got married, hubby and I went to his wedding. He and his (now) wife are naturalists. They had their dog in their small, outside wedding. The dog was even carried by the couple when they had their first dance.

At one point they had some sort of games for the kids outside. One game was like a 'find it' game. The dog was involved in that game as well.

Very freindly mixed breed, small shaggy dog. It was a lot of fun having the dog there. But it was an outside wedding.

I got married when I was 17, with one baby, and one on the way. It was a quick ceremony at the JP's office. Now that our 30th anniversary is coming up, I was thinking of renewing our vows on the beach at the summer house. I always wanted a wedding. I never thought of including Wolfie in the ceremony, but now that have the idea in my head, I might think about it

I had a quick marriage with family and friends this April. This was both our second marriages. Then off to our honeymoon the morning (this is where we wanted to spend money ). My trainer at the time picked the dogs up from me the night before so I didn't have to worry about them. We were gone on our honeymoon for a week.

We just got married a few months ago and Mikko came to the ceremony. I couldn't imagine him not being there. We got married close to our house so we asked a friend to bring him home after the ceremony.

We didn't bring our 3 dogs to our wedding. It was crazy to begin with and having 3 dogs added to the mix just wouldn't have worked. Plus the location didn't allow animals in the building. BUT I did arrive in a horse drawn carriage and have a romantic ride after!
