Fido as a Groomsman
We asked our Facebook fans to tell us if they'll be having a pet in the wedding party. Here’s what they had to say:
"I plan on having both of my dachshund and my teacup Yorkie. And. yes they'll have attire on! My yorkie was part of the engagement - I received him with my princess cut diamond on Jan 3, 2011!" Kristy
"I have two beagles who will be my ring bearers. My half-brother and my half-sister will be walking them down the aisle! Missy will be wearing a little wedding dress and Bobo will be wearing a tux!" Brittney
"My adorable dog was a ring bearer - although he didn't actually carry the ring. I bought Tyler an adorable tux to wear and had to search all over the place to find one that was perfect. We ended up buying one from Canada!" Jacalyn
