Products and Services
We understand how busy wedding planning can be, which is why our service is designed to give you complete peace of mind. While you focus on celebrating, laughing, and soaking up every moment, we’ll be there making sure your dog is happy, calm, and cared for throughout the day.
There are three parts to your wedding day I will be involved in. Pre wedding I can collect your dog/s for a walk to burn off any excitement and ensure they are calm and content. We then travel to the venue for familiarisation. At your wedding I'll be by your dog/s side every step of the way; meeting guests, ceremony involvement, support with photos and all ongoing care. And finally post wedding I will return your dog/s and keep them company.
To ensure the best experience for your wedding day, a mandatory face to face meeting is arranged 1-2 months before the big day. It is a wonderful opportunity to meet you and your dog/s in person, help your dog/s become familiar with me, and discuss any final details or preferences.

Experience
What does a wedding chaperone do?
A Wedding Chaperone is basically your dog’s plus one, we take care of their every need and ensure they are kept comfortable and happy throughout your special day. We also take care of the logistics of getting your dog to and from the venue, as well as all their care needs before, during and after the wedding.
We also help and support with any wedding duties like greeting guests, ring bearer duties, walking down the aisle and photos.

We are based in Swadlincote, South Derbyshire and are lucky to be surrounded by lots of dog friendly venues.
Every enquiry is assesed to ensure we are provifing a service at a cost that we feel is value for money for every couple. Main areas currently covered are Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Staffordshire.
Please note within your package we cover the first 25 miles, any additional mileage is charged at 45p a mile.
Are you insured?
Yes we have full Public Liability Insurance as well as Injury to Animals coverage. I am also DBS checked and Dog First Aid Trained.
Can we have more than one dog at the wedding?
Yes! I can cater upto a maximum of six dogs.
Can my dog attend more than one venue?
Yes! If for example you marry in a church then move to a venue for the reception, we will transport them the same as we would for just one venue. All logisitics around travel are taken care of by us.
How long can my dog be at the wedding?
This will depend partially on your venue, many venues have time limits of when dogs can be on site. Otherwise I recommend 4 hours as a good middle ground. It ultimately comes down to your dog and keeping them safe and happy. Some dogs may love the wedding environment, some may find it overwhelming.
How long will my dog be taken care of on the wedding day?
This will depend on what your specific requirements are and what is agreed on booking. For example you may prefer your dog is collected early due to wedding preparations going on at home. Or you may prefer to have your dog with you right up until you leave for the venue, or even at the venue.
If you add on pet sitting we may be with your dog for 24 hours+
We would discuss this during your initial consultation where we get a better understanding of what you need and create your bespoke service.
How long does it take to get a quote and when is my date secured?
From your initial consultation we aim to have quotes to you within 48 hours which will be valid for five working days. To secure your date we require a 50% booking fee. Once this is recieved your wedding date will be officially reserved and confirmed in our calendar.
