New York Couple Couldn’t Imagine Their Wedding Without Their Dog, So They Gave Him The Most Important Job Of All
A couple’s special day becomes even more memorable when their beloved dog, Wally, steps up to serve as an official witness on their marriage certificate.
A Family Complete
For many New York pet owners, a dog isn’t just an animal in the house. They are family members, confidants, and the center of daily life.
When it came time for one couple to tie the knot, they knew their big day wouldn’t be complete without their most loyal companion by their side.
Their lives in Texas revolved around their beloved dog, Wally, and they were determined to make him a star on their wedding day.
Planning Around The Pup
Finding the perfect venue is a stressful part of any wedding. But for Wally’s parents, the criteria was very specific.
They needed a location that didn’t just tolerate dogs on the property. They wanted a venue that would allow Wally to actually attend the main event.
“Our lives revolve around this dog, and I mean that in every way possible,” his owner shared.
A Beloved Family Member
Wally’s presence wasn’t just important to the bride and groom. He had touched the hearts of everyone on the guest list.
He is a massive part of the lives of their friends and family, who all love him dearly.
Having him there meant sharing their joy with the one soul who brought them together every single day.
The Official Witness
The couple wanted to give Wally a role that truly reflected his importance. They didn’t just want him as a ring bearer; they wanted him on the official paperwork.
In the state of New York, a marriage certificate includes two lines for witnesses to vouch for the union.
The couple decided that Wally would take that second official line, making his presence a permanent part of their legal marriage.
The Best Boy
When the big moment finally arrived, Wally performed his duties perfectly.
He was praised as the absolute “best boy” at the wedding, standing proudly by his parents’ side.
It was a beautiful testament to the bond they shared, captured forever in their ceremony.
A Special Celebration Treat
Because it was Wally’s big day too, he deserved a celebration of his own.
The couple ordered a custom wedding cake just for him, crafted by a dog bakery in Boston, Massachusetts, called Dog Eat Cake.
Wally absolutely loved his special treat, digging in with pure joy as his family cheered him on.
Memories To Last A Lifetime
Looking back on the beautiful photos, the couple knows they made the perfect choice.
“He is such a big part of our lives, and being able to look back on all these memories of us and him is just so special,” his owner noted.
While the humans celebrated their love, Wally seemed to think the entire party was thrown just for him. And in a way, it truly was.
