{Wedding Tips & Tricks} Do You Have a Fur-Baby? Sound Wave Events - Boise Wedding DJ

2/13/2017

0 Comments

 
Do you have a furry family member, or fur-baby? Dogs, cats, horses, goats, rabbits...they are very important members of our families! Please, make sure to include them on the biggest day of your life! You will love looking back at the photos years later, and they will love being their little social butterfly selves. So how do you include them? Well, first, make sure your venue is pet-friendly. Once you've got that part cleared up, check out these ideas.

Oh.My.Gosh! How cute is that puppy's face?! Ok, so obviously to start with, photos are a great way to include your furry friends. They will probably be so happy to have the love and attention! Most dogs love the camera, and will strike a cute, happy-faced pose for you. Here are a couple more, because I just can't help it.

Ring Bearer - While I don't have any photos of Sound Wave Events' weddings with a furry ring bearer, a lot of people love having their pups walk down the aisle with them! Ring bearers, pillow holders, honorary bridesmaid/groomsdog...any where in the processional that you'd like to put them, they are guaranteed to entertain, even if they get a little silly in the process. 

On Horseback - Are you a lover of horses? Maybe you're having a rustic, country or ranch-style wedding? Consider riding in on horseback, or if your horse it up to it, maybe a horsedrawn carriage ride to arrive at your ceremony location. Imagine how stunning your photos would be! 

Doggy Treat Bags - To cover two different needs at your reception, think about treat/party favor bags on each place setting. Maybe a cookie for your guests, and a treat for your fur-baby, for the guest to give to your pup while they are meeting everyone. (Just make sure it's ok for them to consume a substantial amount of the treat without getting an upset tummy.)

Some things to remember - We all love our pets. We truly do. But there are a few things to remember:
  • Your pet's personality - Are they shy and timid around other people? If so, consider having just a few photos taken with them, and have someone on hand who can bring them to you, and take them back home, to minimize their stress.
  • Your Guests - They might have pet allergies. A good idea is to include a tidbit on your wedding website or an invitation insert just letting them know that your pet will be present, so they can have a plan.
  • Children - Is your pet kid-friendly? They may be a little stressed out with a large group of people, and having small children who may poke or pull at your pet might aggravate them even more. 
  • Clean up - Let's face it. You can't tell your pet they can't do their business, especially if you have an outside venue. Make sure there is a plan in place to clean up your pets little gifts to avoid any unpleasant stepping ins...
  • Let Your Photographer Know! - Pet photos are wonderful, but your photographer might need to make accomodations, and be prepared to take photos of your pet in action if they decide to get silly. 
As always, please let us know if we can help in any way! Your DJ can help with other ideas, too! Still looking for a Dance Floor, Photo Booth, or Lighting Design? We can help!

We look forward to seeing you, and your furbabies, at your wedding!
