I always get so excited when I get to photograph my couples with their dogs! It’s even better when they are part of the actual wedding day! This past season I had the opportunity to photograph four weddings that included some adorable dogs! From ring bearers, to flower dogs, to actually members of the wedding party it was awesome! Including a pet in your wedding is a great way to incorporate that sweet love for a fur baby in your day! Enjoy these adorable cuties! Plus more details and some great articles on deciding to include your dog(s) in your wedding day!
First up is this little cutie Duke. Big name for a little guy with a big personality! He was the ring bearer and hung out with the wedding party throughout the getting ready! Duke’s tuxedo matched the guys! He made sure to sneak in a kiss with his mommy!

Now, this guy stole my heart during their engagement session! Romeo is such a sweet and laid back dog! He just ‘chills’…. I loved him hanging out with the groom waiting for the first look to start! As soon as he saw Caitlin he knew he had to go over and give some quick doggie kisses! I loved the Bluemont Vineyard allows pets to be part of the full day. Romeo go to chill, hang out and join in on all the fun throughout the ceremony and reception!
