So, you're getting married—congrats! You've picked the dress, the venue, the cake… but what about the real VIP? You know, the one who’s been there through it all: your pet.

Whether your dog is your ride-or-die or your cat is only emotionally available when food is involved, there's one thing for certain: they deserve a front-row seat at your wedding. Or at least a fabulous outfit and a moment in the spotlight.

Here’s your guide to including your pet in your big day—outfits, photos, and all—featuring adorable, handmade-in-the-UK goodness.


Why Bring Your Pet to Your Wedding?

Because they're family. Because they're cute. Because they can't give a cringey speech after one too many drinks.
Also:

  • They’ll make your photos 100x cuter 

  • They're excellent ring security

  • Guests love them


How to Include Your Pet in Your Wedding

There are plenty of ways your pet can be part of the big day:

  • Ring Bearer or Flower Pet: Let them carry the rings (in a secure pouch) or trot down the aisle with petals in tow.

  • Pet of Honor: Include them in your ceremony with a cute speech or role.

  • Reception Guest: Have them greet guests or stay for a special photo op.

  • Photo Shoot Star: Even if your venue isn’t pet-friendly, a pre-ceremony photo shoot is a great way to include them.


But the Real Question: What Should They WEAR?

Whether they’re walking down the aisle or just showing up for the photos, they deserve to look dashing.

A Few Pro Tips (So Your Pet Doesn’t Upstage You Too Much)

  • Do a Dress Rehearsal: Try the outfit on before the big day—preferably not 5 minutes before walking down the aisle.

  • Check for Comfort: Our handmade outfits are soft and comfy for easy movement with non-irritating fabrics. They are secure, but not tight fit

  • Assign a Pet Handler: Make sure someone is in charge of walks, water, and bathroom breaks.

  • Have a Backup Plan: Not all pets love the spotlight. If they get overwhelmed, let them chill in a quiet space.
  • Bring Treats. Lots of Treats. Need we say more?
