This is a lovely story from The Dodo.
I saw this article in the August 23rd issue of The Dodo magazine and it appealed to me.
So I wanted to share it with you all.

Couple Hires Dog To Film Their Wedding — And The Results Are Simply Perfect
Such a great idea ❤️
Published on Aug 23, 2024
Ellie Woods’ family dog Bobby has always been an important part of her love story with her wife Georgie Woods. When Ellie brought Georgie home for the first time, the family member she was most anxious for Georgie to meet was Bobby.
When the couple got engaged and started planning their wedding, they decided it would be fun to try to document the wedding from Bobby’s unique perspective. So right before the ceremony started, they attached a GoPro to Bobby’s back and then set him loose.
For some dogs, walking around with a camera on their back might take some getting used to — but not for Bobby. He immediately felt comfortable.
“He loves being the center of attention,” Georgie told The Dodo. “He just loved it.”
Georgie and Ellie said having Bobby at their wedding was incredibly meaningful for them.
“Animals are really important to queer couples,” Ellie said. “[I]t was so important to have him … as part of our big day.
When the newlyweds sat down to watch the footage Bobby had captured, what they saw surprised and delighted them. The GoPro had caught Bobby stealing hors d’oeuvres and even walking in on Georgie’s sister in the bathroom. While Bobby is an expert videographer, he is still a dog, after all.
Of course, Bobby’s camera recorded much more than shenanigans. Georgie and Ellie loved watching themselves walk down the aisle together from Bobby’s perspective.
“It captured some really special moments,” Ellie said. “[W]e couldn’t be happier for how it came out because it’s just so organic and such an interesting, different perspective.”

Dogs are just incredible. As much as I have already said that, time and time again there comes a story that just reinforces that previous sentence.
