Enquire About Your WeddingCreated by Georgie, a fully qualified and insured dog groomer with over 8 years of professional experience working with dogs, Dolly & Co Weddings was created from the understanding that dogs truly are part of the family.

For couples who want their dog there for the most important part of the day.
Perfect if you would love your dog to be part of your ceremony and photographs, without them needing to stay for a large part of the celebrations. I'll collect your dog, get them wedding-ready and bring them to your venue, chaperone them through their big moments and photographs, then safely return them home and get them settled.

For couples who want their dog involved in more of their wedding day.
With more time together, there is no need to rush your dog's part in the celebrations. I'll collect them before the wedding and take them for a walk before getting them wedding-ready and heading to your venue. They can enjoy the ceremony, guests and photographs, with plenty of breaks and downtime along the way, before being safely returned home and settled.
Everything in The Ring Bearer, plus: Pre-wedding walk · Additional time for photographs, guests and celebrations
For couples who need a little more flexibility on their wedding day.
With up to 8 hours of dedicated care, there's no rush around photographs or timings, and your dog's evening routine is taken care of too. I'll look after everything from their pre-wedding walk and journey to the venue through to their ceremony duties, guest cuddles and photographs, before taking them home for their evening feed, a short walk or toilet break and settling them comfortably.
Everything in The Best Dog, plus: Extended care & flexibility · Homecoming Care included · Wedding Day Accessory Included
A little more about what I'll take care of for you and your dog.
Before your wedding, we'll arrange an in-person Meet and Greet so I can get to know your dog and they can get comfortable with me. We'll discuss their routine, personality, needs and wedding-day plans, and enjoy a short walk together.
I'll collect your dog from home or another agreed location and take care of their transport to the wedding venue and safely home again afterwards.
Included with The Best Dog and Guest of Honour, giving your dog time to stretch their legs, have a toilet break and burn off some energy before the excitement begins.
A final brush-through, clean-up of paws or face where needed, and help putting on wedding accessories such as a bow tie, bandana or flower collar.
I'll stay responsible for your dog throughout the ceremony, keeping them comfortable and settled while you concentrate on getting married.
Whether your dog is walking with a member of your wedding party or needs a little help from me, I'll help their big entrance run as smoothly as possible.
Your dog can enjoy being part of the celebrations and saying hello to your guests while remaining safely supervised throughout.
I'll work alongside your photographer, handling and positioning your dog where needed and helping get their attention for those special photographs.
I'll monitor your dog's body language and make sure they have regular water, toilet breaks and quiet time away from the celebrations whenever they need it.
When your dog's part in the celebrations is finished, I'll safely take them home and make sure they're comfortable and settled before leaving.
Included with Guest of Honour or available as a £40 add-on. This includes their evening feed, a short walk or toilet break and settling at home. Approximately 30 minutes of additional care; evening pet sitting is not included.
Exclusive to Guest of Honour. A wedding bandana, bow tie or floral accessory will be provided for your dog to wear during their time at the wedding and collected again afterwards.
