Meaningful Ways to Include Your Pet in Your Wedding
Whether you own a cat, dog, horse, cow, or even a snake, there are numerous ways to incorporate having your animal play a special role on your wedding day. We’ve compiled a list of memorable and creative ideas to include your pet in one of the biggest times of your life.
Signature Cocktails
Having a pet-inspired cocktail is a fun twist your guests won’t expect when browsing their signature drink. Be creative when choosing the name “Max’s Mojito”, “Salty Chihuahua”, or “Bandit’s Bourbon.” These would all make great pet-inspired signature drinks.
Doggie Bag Favors
What better way to include your furry friends at home than sending your guests home with a dog treat party favor? Stamped with your dog’s likeness these are sure to be a hit!
Personalized Napkins
These cocktail napkins are a subtle and impactful way to incorporate your furry friend. Other ways they can make an appearance are welcome signs, coasters, and stir sticks!
All Seated in a Barn the Venue
For the horse lovers at heart, we have the perfect option. The Venue All Seated in a Barn has horses and many other sweet animals on site. Feel at-home surrounded by horses and capture some beautiful photos of you and your spouse.
Choose a Pet-Friendly Venue
Bring your pet along on your big day just like this bride. Barns, farms, or private residences may have fewer restrictions about having pets on-site. It will make getting ready even more special.
Dressy Attire
Your pet is already the cutest thing ever; turn it up a notch with wedding-themed attire. “I do” bandanas, bow-tie collars or a matching leash will add that personal touch.
Wedding Cake Pet Figurine
Instead of placing your pooch atop the wedding cake, set the figurine at the base of the three-tier wedding dessert. They’ll appear to be mischievously tasting the icing.
Cow Cake Topper
Top your cake with something that represents both your love for each other and passion for your pets! This couple added this cow-friendly topper to this three-tier masterpiece.
Ring Bearer
Your pet can take on a special role in your wedding party — make it official with a title like “Flower Pet”, “Pet of Honor” or “Ring Bearer.” Or, simply have them by your side for a meaningful, memorable walk down the aisle.
We hope this list of unique ways to honor your pet on your wedding day helps inspire you when adding person touches to your wedding.
