Last week, while surfing around on the web, I found this.

In case you are wondering, that little beauty is a dog collar. Now, before you go roll your eyes at me, let me explain something. I have the most adorable dog (trust me, and if you don’t believe me, just hold on a second). And, because we are not having children at our wedding, we do not have a flower girl or ring bearer. For that reason, I have been contemplating having our dog go down the aisle as our “flower dog” (again with the eye rolling, you can stop). Our ceremony venue does not allow for pets, BUT I have been told on many occasions by wedding planners and couples that they have brought their dog into the venue. You see, no one is actually at the Jewel Box monitoring it while weddings are happening (or so I’ve been told). Thus, my reasoning for thinking about it.
Don’t worry, I would not dress her in a frilly outfit or bride costume. The plan was to have her wear a cute color or ribbon, so for all obvious reasons, I love this pearl collar, which was originally featured in an issue of Martha Stewart Weddings. But, the Pilot and I decided to not have her be our “flower dog” for a few reasons. Mostly, we don’t want to put anyone in charge of her on the wedding day, nor do we want to put her through that.
And, as promised, a picture of the cutest dog ever.*
