DOG OF HONOR SERVICES
CHAUFFEUR
We’ll provide a safe ride for your pup to and from Nestldown, anywhere in Northern California.
Let your guests stay to enjoy the cocktail hour while your dog is safely escorted home to be fed, cuddled, and walked.
PHOTOGRAPHY ASSISTANCE
A big part of our role is to support your professional photographers, videographers, and content creators to capture AMAZING content of your fur child.
With our keen eye, we’ll ensure they look picture-perfect and give your team those big,
puppy-dog eyes!
YOUR PUP’S PERSONAL
PUP-PARAZZI
Next to puppy kisses, we absolutely love capturing behind-the-scenes content of each and every Dog of Honor. From posing next to your welcome sign and the signature cocktail menu starring your favorite fur child, to candids with your guests giving all the love to your pup, we want you to relive the best day ever, from your dog’s POV!
CEREMONY ASSISTANCE
The most important part of the day, the ceremony.
Your pup’s walk down the aisle is often one of the most emotional and memorable moments of the entire wedding day. We’ll thoughtfully coordinate every detail to ensure their big moment feels seamless, stress-free, and unforgettable.
Plus, we’ll help you choose the perfect entrance song for your Dog Of Honor, one that captures their unique personality.
SAFETY AND COMFORT
Behind the scenes, we are working diligently to ensure your dog stays cool and hydrated during the hot outdoor summer weddings, and any anxieties are managed accordingly so that your dog has the best day ever! Our entire team is pet CPR and first aid certified, and they always carry a pet first aid kit.

Every wedding is unique, but here’s an example of what a timeline might look like for your pup.

Guests begin arriving and are welcomed by your pup, instantly adding charm and personality to the guest experience.
4:00 PM
Ceremony begins. We carefully facilitate your dog’s honored role so they feel included, celebrated, and never overwhelmed or a distraction from the ceremony.
4:30 PM
Ceremony concludes. We remain nearby for post-ceremony family photos.
5:00 PM
Your pup joins cocktail hour, where they can mingle with guests and soak up all the love. This is often one of our favorite parts of the day for candid photos and behind-the-scenes video.

Important Things to Know About Including Your Dog at
The Ranch at Silver Creek
This Wedgewood Wedding venue is one of our favorites for dogs, thanks to its dog-friendly spaces, including a shaded courtyard and indoor access on hot or rainy days. To ensure a safe and seamless experience for everyone, here are a few important venue guidelines to keep in mind:
Dogs are welcome throughout most of the property, but they are not permitted in the dinner reception space.
Dogs are allowed inside the bride's and groom’s suites and the cocktail reception area.
Unlike many wedding venues, The Ranch at Silver Creek allows dogs to remain on-site through the end of the reception. They can stay with an attendant in either the bride’s suite or the groom’s suite.
Dogs must remain under leash control at all times while on-site.
We are seasoned wedding professionals who are completely obsessed with dogs, and we truly have the best job ever.
With over 250 weddings as our guide, we know how to seamlessly (and joyfully) weave your furry BFF into the fabric of your day. We closely coordinate with your wedding planner, venue, and photographer so everything feels effortless. And because our “pack” of wedding dog chaperones believes in going above and beyond, we’re always looking for ways to make it the best day ever for you — but most importantly, for your Dog of Honor.
WEDDING DOG ATTENDANT INVESTMENT
Every wedding is unique — and so is every Dog of Honor.
Let’s chat about how we can customize a plan that’s perfect for your pup’s role in your big day.
Wedding dog concierge services start at $800 for up to five hours of service. Additional hours are available at an hourly rate.
Full-day, overnight, and Dog of Honor Retreat Weekend options are also available.

"Abigayle made Callie being a part of our ceremony a reality and we couldn't have done it without her. Her planning process was great and she is very easy to get into contact with.
