An animal shelter in South Carolina in the US live-streamed a special canine wedding between two of their pups to encourage donations and the importance of adopting dogs from shelters.
Greenville County Animal Care hosted the special day between dogs Sassy and Spero on Thursday, February 10 in honour of their new Have a Heart Heartworm Treatment Fund. Every heartworm positive dog will have their treatment covered in full through this fund, making it easier than ever to adopt a heartworm-positive dog.
According to the shelter, Sassy and Spero are both heartworm survivors and have been together since Sassy began treatment for heartworm. They walked down the aisle on Thursday and said ‘woof woof’ in their wedding finery before enjoying a special wedding cake.
Watch the sweet ceremony here:
The shelter is no stranger to doggy weddings. This has become a yearly tradition, and adopting are free during the week of the wedding.
Consider making a donation (http://bit.ly/2N4iEmR) to the Have a Heart fund in lieu of gifts for this pawsome couple.

The day is finally here! Remember to take a moment and have your photographer capture you enjoying a cuppa with your besties, or all of you listening to your mom talking about old romantic stories as you get ready for the special day. Sweet shots of you staring in the mirror, or your maid of honour zipping your dress up will remind you of your excitement.
The shoes

Your wedding shoes are often hidden beneath the long dress, not affording them the attention they deserve. Make sure to get a snap of your shoes in all their glory, before you kick them off to dance the night away.

These guys usually take months of planning, yet they’re sometimes easily forgotten about. Take a snap for posterity’s sake so that you can always remember the details of your big day, from the time it started to the dress code.

It’s easy to get caught up in taking general pictures of the bridal couple and the reception, but make sure to take a moment to hone in on the finer details. The bouquet and groom’s boutonnière play a pivotal role in your wedding attire. Also consider taking close up shots of your ring, the food, and decor so you won’t forget a thing.

In Ancient Rome, brides would carry flowers as they were believed to signify new beginnings, fidelity and hope of fertility. Today, bouquets largely act as an extra accessory to complement the bridal look, so its important to pick the right one.
If you’re the kind of gal that loves to make a statement, your bouquet should show it. Opting for bright colours like reds, yellows and oranges is the easiest way to create a bold finish. However, if you’re not into colour a neutral bouquet can be just as special. Make sure to opt for a variety of flowers in differing shapes, sizes and lengths to create dimension.

The name of this precious gemstone comes from the Greek word ‘sappheiros’ and the Latin word ‘saphirus’, both of which translate to mean blue.
