Lola & Biscuit were fairly recent additions to the family at the time of the wedding, but you would have thought they’d been with Briana & Jeremy since puppyhood!
We had fun adventuring with the pups before the ceremony, getting lots of energy out & letting them get their sniffs in so they could feel happy & comfortable in the new environment.
They both walked great down the aisle & looked absolutely precious in their flower collars!
These two rescue pitties had the BEST DAY EVER!
We asked the couple a few questions about including Lola & Biscuit in the wedding day:
Why did you include your dogs in your wedding?
They're a part of our family so it seemed natural that they be included.
What is the story of how your dogs became a part of the family?
Biscuit & Lola were fairly new family members at the time of our wedding.
Jeremy and I had lost both our OG dogs within the past 2 years but knew we wanted another 2 dogs when we felt ready again.
It had been about 8 months since we lost my dog, Stella, and I finally felt like I was open to new pups again. Stella was a pittie and I knew I wanted to save more pits - luckily Jeremy agreed!
We went to Pinellas County Animal Services, on a friend's recommendation, after picking a few pups we wanted to meet off their website. None of the cuties we picked in advance were quite right but then they brought Biscuit (formerly Mystique) out to play with one of the others we were looking at. And we knew she was the one!
We had spent so long playing with the dogs that I had to go to work and we didn't have time to find our second dog that day. We went back the next day with Biscuit and the volunteers recommended Lola (formerly Milan) as they already got along well in their play group. She was such a cute little bean, and we wanted a black dog anyway, that we decided to bring her home right away!
Did you incorporate your dogs into any other details on your wedding day?
We included pictures of our past dogs on our memorial table.
And I picked a fabric for our table runners that had dogs on it. :)
All dogs are the best dogs, but tell us something that makes your dogs special?
How attached they are to each other. We call them sisters and they act just like it!
Is there anything else you’d like to share with us about your dogs?
How happy we are with our shelter pups :)
