As a wedding day pet care company, we know that fall is one of the most popular seasons for weddings.
With its cooler temperatures and cozy ambiance, it's no wonder that so many couples choose to tie the knot during this time of year.
And for those couples who want to include their pups in their special day, fall offers a plethora of pet-friendly options.

Here are some ideas for fall weddings that will make your pet feel right at home:
Coordinating Outfits
One of the cutest ways to include your pet in your fall wedding is by coordinating their outfit with yours. Dressing your pet in a bow tie or a floral collar that matches your wedding colors will add a personal touch to your special day. We will dress them up with any provided attire or in one of our snazzy suits or flower collars. You can even consider a matching scarf or jacket to keep your pups cozy during outdoor photo sessions!
Include Your Pet in your Wedding Photo Booth
A wedding photo booth is an excellent way to capture memories with your guests, and your pet can be part of the fun too. You can create a custom sign with your pet's name and include it in the photo booth. You can also place a few props, such as hats or glasses, on your pet to create some hilarious photos. Use fall themed props to really feel the season.

Fall is a beautiful time to enjoy the outdoors! Consider an outdoor location for photos where your pet can join in on the love! You can choose a scenic location with fall foliage and have your pet pose with you for some beautiful photos.
Pro tip: bring a pet sitter to help care for your pup when they’re not needed for photos!
Wedding Favors
If you're giving out wedding favors to your guests, you could include treats from “your pup to theirs”. A “treat bar” with options for them to pack their own bag is a fun way to make it interactive. Or if you’re getting something for your wedding party you could include “hair of the dog” supplies (advil, electrolyte drink, etc.).
Pet-themed Decor

You can also incorporate pet-themed decor into your wedding reception. For example, you could have table numbers with photos of your pets on them, or place cards with your pet's name and photo. You could even have a custom cake topper with a figurine of you and your pet. These small touches will showcase your Dog of Honor in a special way.
Pet-friendly Seating

If you're having an outdoor fall wedding, consider setting up a pet-friendly seating area for your Best Dog. This could be a designated section with blankets and cushions where your pets can relax and enjoy the festivities. Make sure to provide plenty of shade and water bowls to keep your pets comfortable.

Finally, if you're worried about your pet getting overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle of your wedding day, giving a plus-one for your dog will ensure they can have the best day ever too. We will make sure your pet gets plenty of exercise, food, and water throughout the day, and can handle all of the logistics along the way (transportation, etc..). This will give you peace of mind knowing that your pet is well taken care of, and will allow you to fully enjoy your wedding day without worrying about your baby.
Fall weddings are a beautiful and romantic way to celebrate your love, and including your pets in your big day can make it even more special. Whether you're dressing them up in fall-themed attire, incorporating pet-themed decor, or hiring a wedding day pet care service, there are plenty of creative ways to make your Dog of Honor be a part of the celebration.
