my dog as a ring bearer???

i really want my yorkie to be our ring bearer...we are getting married on the beach in Montauk and i'm a little nervous about him running off...anybody else use their dogs in their weddings???

Re: my dog as a ring bearer???

i would be very nervous about my dog running off (see pic of my pom, molly). shes not the type of dog you can toss a frisbee on the beach and have her run, catch it, and bring it back. she'd just keep running! so she wont be in the wedding bc i would worry waaaay too much. our ceromony is indoors, but i would then have to worry about her transportation and safety and i'll have enough to worry about. but if you could pull it off it is a cute idea. i think i will settle for having her picture on a table somewhere, maybe with her dresses up really cute :) ~lacey

Re: my dog as a ring bearer???

I LOVE the idea! That is so so so so so cool!

Re: my dog as a ring bearer???

do you have flower girl who can watch your dog or walk him on a leash? i think including your dog is a great idea....mines too big, but we are doing pictures with him!!

Re: my dog as a ring bearer???

Re: my dog as a ring bearer???

my sister is my maid of honor, and she is 13, i was thinking about having one of her friends come out to 'babysit' the dog...

Re: my dog as a ring bearer???

I think it would be so cute but what would you do with the dog after the ceremony?

Re: my dog as a ring bearer???

That's will be so cuteeeeeeeee

Re: my dog as a ring bearer???

the 'babysitter' will watch him at the reception, its outdoors on the beach!

Re: my dog as a ring bearer???

We were at a wedding, and a couple had their dog as their ring bearer. A family member walked the dog down the aisle, and the rings were tied to his collar somehow, it was very cute.

Re: my dog as a ring bearer???

Is the dog well behaved? I would love to have my pup in the wedding but she is too crazy. I think if you are afraid of her running off, don't do it.

Re: my dog as a ring bearer???

I think my Pastor would have a stroke! GET THE CRASH CART!!! I know you're not getting married in a church, I'm just getting a mental image of asking my pastor if it would be alright.....

I think it's a cute idea though! Why the heck not??

Re: my dog as a ring bearer???

what if you have someone walk him down the aisle either on a lease or on a wagon?

Re: my dog as a ring bearer???

well, he's still new, only 5 months, so im not really sure about his behavior, so far so good, i guess we will have to see over the year...

i want to put him in a little white tux...awww its so adorable...he would probably be the talk of the party...

Re: my dog as a ring bearer???

I am in a round about way...I want to take a picture of him in a bow tie and place it on the bar at the cocktail hour with his recommendation...a signature drink named for where we met...I know very corny!
