Your Dogs in Your Wedding: Furry groomsmen and bridesmaids

With dog wedding collars and leashes, your pets can be in your special day!

Ways to Have Your Dogs in Your Wedding

Ring Bearer & Flower Girl Dogs: You can dress up your canine friends just like your young family members. Put a boy dog in a fancy bowtie, and get a dog collar and flower for a girl dog. The dogs can either accompany the children or walk the aisle with a groomsman or bridesmaid. Just like with children in a wedding, it’s a good idea to appoint the dog a trusted guardian for the event, as you and your new spouse will be busy enjoying yourselves.

Best Man & Maid of Honor Dogs: Man’s best friend, right? Your dogs are your best friends, and they can be your best man or maid of honor at your wedding. With stylish leashes in wedding colors, your dogs can also walk down the aisle with your human bridal party in an outdoor wedding.

Doggy Groomsmen and Bridesmaids: You can also have your dogs accompany your human bridal party, and your friends can get their dogs involved too. With matching dog wedding accessories, they’ll be the perfect little bridesmaids and groomsmen!

Wedding Photos with Your Dogs: If your wedding is an outdoor affair, dogs can be part of the ceremony, but they can also be in your wedding photos if you choose a pet-free venue. Your pets were there with you as your love grew, so have your dogs in your save the date or proposal photos. Your pets are also part of your new family, so they can pose with you for your wedding photos in matching collars with dog wedding accessories.

At Arcadius Dog Collars, we love to give back to our local community, and what better way than working with local dog rescues! This is why we have our signature collections named for dogs from Madalin’s Used Dogs rescue in New Orleans, LA. On our blog, we’ll be featuring a new rescue dog from Used Dogs every week!

This week’s rescue dog: Daisy!

Daisy! Labrador mix, possibly pit bull - approx. 5 yo

Daisy is a Labrador / Pitt Bull mix, around three years old, with a lot of energy who loves to play on a bright spring or hot summer day. Daisy was found in the 7th Ward in New Orleans in 2010, in poor health and with injuries that indicated she might have been hit by a car. With some TLC, Daisy has recovered and turned into an inspiration for everyone who works with Used Dogs.

Daisy has her own line of designer dog collars!

Chris from Arcadius Dog Designer Collars was inspired to make a dog collar collection with Daisy in mind. Lazy Daisy’s Collars are all about that perfect summer day. They feature hand-dyed marble prints and classic spring gingham with unique handmade flowers or bowties to accompany the collar.

Daisy is a happy high energy dog that prefers to be inside most of the time but loves to spend the evening relaxing with a chew bone after a nice leisurely stroll. All the fabrics in Daisy’s collection are hand dyed, and many have a tie-dye look to reflect this dog’s sunny disposition.

Daisy - Available for adoption to the right NOLA home!

The bowties featured in Daisy’s unique dog collar collection are for the easy going but masculine dog. He can’t be afraid to wear pink or too cool to kick his paws up and relax for the evening.
