My Dog, My Wedding….
Should I include my dog in my ceremony? As a caterer this question is more common than you could ever imagine.
As a dog lover myself my immediate answer is, yes. But before leashing up a member of your bridal party be sure you ask yourself a few key questions….
- Does my caterer allow dogs in the building?
- Is my dog comfortable around large crowds?
- Will my dog remain quite during my vows?
- Who will attend to my dog prior to the ceremony?
- Who will bring my dog home immediately following the ceremony?
- Does my dog do well around loud noise?
- Did I have my dog professionally groomed prior to the ceremony?
- Is my dog’s shots all up to date?
- Will my dog be comfortable in a tuxedo? (I had to see if you were following along)
Most young couples welcome a pet into their serious relationship and dogs are an important part of family day to day life. So break out the grooming brush, get those toenails clipped, buy a new collar and enjoy the festivities.
