    No way, no how!! I saw a wedding were the "ring carrier" was their dog and it went all wrong because the dog started barking in the middle of the ceremony.

    Our dog is not involved in the wedding, but we are hiring someone to bring him to our venue for an hour for photos with us :) and then bring him back home

    We will have our black lab in pearls (my BM!) and our cat in a bow tie. The cat, Scooter, will be in attendance, but not part of the wedding party.

    I wish we could but our dog gets such bad crowd anxiety she would want me to hold her the whole time.

    I wish we could also but my 13 year old chihuhua and my 9 month old kitten would not work out well as BM and ring bearer!

    Where we are getting married, they allow pets.  However with all the people and excitement I don't think that it is the best thing for them to be there.  They already know who their mommy and daddy are.

    I wish! My dog is 10-years-old, and has no manners for big gatherings. He used to be outdoors-only, and never quite got the whole "I'm not supposed to mark things" lesson when outside. He also LOVES to get in peoples' faces.

    This summer, I am attending a friend's wedding in which her Corgi is her ring bearer.

    I'm pretty sure we're going to have our dog in the wedding. I think it'd be so cute! Plus, its only like 15 min from our house so he could easily get dropped off at home after the ceremony. The only issue is that he sometimes barks a bit when he gets excited... but I think if we do it we just need to be chill about it. I know he'd be okay if I was the one walking him but I'm just not 100% sure what will happen if someone else walks him. If he barks we'll laugh it off, and if he KEEPS barking I'll have a standing order for my DOC to grab him and take him out.

    My son's 100 pound chocolate lab (his hunting partner) is going to be the 8th groomsman! He is a great dog, but I am a little worried about the whole marking the territory thing.

    Wow @Mrs. DG  that is the most beautiful picture ever!!!

    My mom called me up last week and asked if my dog (a rambunctious Cairn Terrier) could be a bridesmaid.... she said she'd even buy her a little pink dress. I had to disagree knowing my dog's temperament for jumping into laps and being all around snuggly- not the best when everyone's dressed up. Although we will miss her at the wedding, she'll be at an awesome boarding place with lots of dogs and big backyard.

    I kind of wish I could have my Trane in the wedding. He is a beautiful dog, very regal (an English setter). He would hate the car ride to our destination, though, and doesn't much like lots of people. And I have no idea what we would do with him all weekend.

    I would have loved to but they would have been WAY too excited about all the people and "the-rabbit-that's-just-over-there-i-know-it-i-know-it-i-know-it!!!"  If J and I were the handlers it would have been fine but they would have been too much for some one else to manage.

    When my cousin got married her husband's dog was there.  Old Ricky was 17 or so and had been T's dog since he was a boy.  Ricky sat there perfectly still until the vows were said and everything was official and then laid down.  It was rather like he was saying, "Ok, B.  He's your responsibility now!"  He was definitely a once in a lifetime dog.

    my mom wanted my birds to be in our wedding because they're "my kids" and the kids should be invited too.

    of course, we said nay to that because that's just way too stressful for the birds - a room full of LOUD, drunk strangers, oh my!
