Many couples choose to include their dogs in their ceremony, giving them a special role such as ring bearer, bouquet buddy, or even your adorable unofficial witness. To make their day as special as yours, we can arrange a little pre-ceremony pampering with a trusted local dog groomer, ensuring your four-legged friend looks their best for the big moment. If you’d like some time alone for photos or a peaceful walk along the coast after your ceremony, we’ve partnered with a reliable local pet sitting company who can take loving care of your dog while you enjoy a few quiet moments together. At Ocean Kave, your elopement is not only intimate and relaxed — it’s truly dog friendly, allowing your furry companion to share every unforgettable moment with you.
