Bridal Party Trades Bouquets for Rescue Pups to Find Them Forever Homes
Get ready for some of the most adorable wedding photos you’ve ever seen! In a heartwarming twist on tradition, a fabulous bridal party decided to swap out flowers for six irresistible rescue pups, all in a bid to help them find loving homes. And guess what? The internet is totally smitten with their furry faces!
This delightful doggy display was orchestrated by the bride, who clearly has a soft spot for our four-legged friends. Meet Emily Hartwell, a dedicated member of the rescue community who works tirelessly for Fur-tastic Friends, a local dog rescue. During her wedding on September 10 in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, she thought, “Why not feature some of these lovable pups?” Her groom, Jake, and the entire bridal party jumped on board, creating a buzz that made everyone go awwww.
According to photographer Lisa of Lisa’s Paw-sitive Photography, when the pups came bounding in, the bridal party couldn’t help but fawn over them. “It was like a puppy paradise!” she exclaimed. The five sisters, all boxer-Coonhound mixes, were named after the first five First Ladies: Martha, Abigail, Dolley, Elizabeth, and Louisa. And let’s not forget the adorable 9-week-old Pit Bull that Emily held, affectionately named Biggie Smalls, who hails from the streets of Brooklyn.
Despite their youthful exuberance, the little furballs managed to keep their excitement in check—no mishaps or dress-chewing incidents on this special day! “Having those playful pups around made everyone feel more relaxed during the photo session,” Lisa shared. “Instead of worrying about how to pose, they were just absorbed in puppy love!”
Just look at the joy radiating from the wedding party as they snuggled with their new furry friends! It’s clear that the internet has fallen head over heels for this story, with photos circulating like wildfire. “It’s incredible to see how much people are connecting with the images,” Lisa remarked.
The best part? These adorable pups are on the path to finding their forever homes! They will be available for adoption through Fur-tastic Friends, which currently has around 40 other dogs looking for loving families. No doubt, they’d be thrilled to join in on any celebration, too!
“My life revolves around rescuing and caring for dogs, so it felt only right to include them in our special day,” Emily told us. She and Jake are proud dog parents to three fur babies and regularly foster pups awaiting adoption. “They truly are the best ‘kids’ we could ask for,” Emily added.
