The new I Do, why dogs are becoming part of the modern UK wedding

UK couples are increasingly involving their beloved dogs in their wedding ceremonies, valuing love, spontaneity and pure joy above formal traditions.

Recent research on behalf of Guide Dogs UK revealed that 94% of dog-owning couples getting married in the next year plan to give their furry family member a starring role, such as walking the bride down the aisle, acting as dog of honour or ring bearer.

Including dogs in wedding ceremonies isn't just a trend, it's an emotional statement of unity, love, belonging, and the changing definition of 'family' in modern British weddings.

As joyful as it is to have your dog included in the celebrations, thoughtful planning is essential. There are several factors to consider like ensuring that the venue is dog-friendly and that guests are comfortable with your pup's participation in the day.

And of course, don't forget to hire a dog chaperone to meet their needs, perfect their photo moments and keep them on cue, giving you peace of mind that your pup is being included in the celebrations and having their best day too.
