Including your pet on this journey doesn’t just have to start with the wedding. Try incorporating your pet into your engagement too. You can practice ring bearing by making your dog or cat bring the engagement ring or even include some anecdotes about your pets in your heart-warming speech. 2. Pet-friendly venues You’ll want to make sure you’ve got a pet-friendly venue which can accommodate your cats and dogs. Everything from the right to have your pet there to snacks should be sorted for you, so you can relax and enjoy the day knowing your pet is enjoying the day just as much as you. Locations such as wedding venues in Cumbria or other rural areas make for the perfect pet spot. You’ll want to ensure there’s plenty of walking space for your dog to enjoy the outdoors as much as the indoors. Make sure to discuss bringing your pets with your wedding organisers and venue, they might even be able to help with a pet sitter! 3. Party with a pet sitter Don’t forget to hire a pet sitter for the party. You don’t want to be worrying about where your pet is when you’re saying your vows. A designated pet sitter can ensure your pet has everything it needs from drinks and snacks to toilet opportunities. This way, you can have the joy of having your pets attend without the stress of the situation. 4. Ring bearer It is no surprise that many people opt to include their pets as ring bearers in their wedding ceremonies. Every animal from cats and dogs to your tortoise can be steered down the aisle and be a great fun and heartwarming addition – although you might be waiting a while!
