Animal Lovers Use Their Wedding to Give Back to Dogs in Need

Rachel & Meredith are huge animal lovers & wanted to find a way to express that on their wedding day.

They decided that including their own dog, Penny, in the wedding may not be the best fit so we helped them execute a different, very special idea instead!

Our Yappily Ever After program, in partnership with the Humane Society of Tampa Bay, offers a unique experience for animal advocates & lovers on their wedding day.

We brought on a few volunteers & coordinated with the shelter to break 4 dogs out of their cages to set out on the adventure of a lifetime!

We worked with the couple’s vendors to ensure every detail was accounted for & showed up after their ceremony to introduce a little cuddle time to their guests during cocktail hour.

You could see everyone’s eyes light up when they realized that part of their wedding guest experience was to snuggle up on a few adoptable puppies in search of their forever home. We let those that were interested get their pets in & even hold the puppies if they wished.

Our goal with this program is to raise awareness for adoption & to hopefully find these dogs their forever home. More importantly though, these little adventures give the dogs much needed socialization & exposure to new environments. This helps the adoptable dogs go on to lead much healthier & happier lives.

On top of all of that, aside from our small coordination fee, the proceeds from our Yappily Ever After program go entirely to the shelter!
