Q: Does their temperament fit your wedding?

Your dog or cat may seem relaxed at home, but will they still be that way amid all the excitement that is your wedding day? If you can answer a definitive yes, then everything should be fine. If you’re unsure, opt for safety first and consider leaving them at home.

Q: Does the venue allow pets?

While this is a fundamental question, you’d be surprised how many people forget to ask and then find out later it’s not allowed.

Q: Are there any guest issues?

This day is indeed about you, but you also don’t want a guest with a severe dog or cat allergy to react during your big day.

Q: Who is going to be in charge?
