Corgis as bouquets?

Because animals as accessories are totally adorable!!! :-p

Poor pups. I hope one of them pees all over her "storybook" wedding.

Re: Corgis as bouquets?

  • Not my taste but it wouldn't be that bad if they were like her friend's dogs or something.

    I can't help but to laugh.    Who dreams about a having random Corgis as BMs? 


    I liked the comment if she needs 6 MORE, how many does she going to have?  6 dogs walking down an alive seems like shit-show.   I can't imagine even more than that?






    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated. 
  • WTF is she doing that she is having a 2.5 hour ceremony?!

    "Love is the one thing we're capable of perceiving that transcends time and space."


  • Corgis are like 30+ lb dogs!

    I hope she at least means "walked" down the aisle, not carried!

    lol that was my thought too. And what if one of the corgis pees on one of the BMs? Or like throws up? Cuz my beagle has now thrown up on me TWICE, both times at extremely inopportune moments so...

  • I'm also curious about the coconut in the cake. Is there coconut in the cake? I don't like coconut outside of a pina colda. I don't want it in my free cake I get for letting you use my corgis. But also I have 8 corgis. Now I know she only wanted 6 but how can I pick my 6 favorite and not let the other two attend. Is she willing to have two corgis instead of a flowergirl and ringbearer?

    I have no corgis. But I love corgis. I grew up with one and she was fantastic and I want to have another one.

    Yeah, I'm not holding a 25-30lbs bouquet for 2.5hrs. I don't care if it's made of flowers, kittens, or solid gold.

  • So awkward. 
    Especially when your kids/people are like "oh, were those your beloved pets in the pictures?" And they said "no, rentals".

  • I hope (at least) one of the corgis takes a dump in the middle of the ceremony.

  • This girl obviously hasn't been around a whole lot of dogs. I don't think 6+ corgis would stay still for BMs to carry down the aisle. I can imagine those poor BMs struggling to keep hold of struggling 30lb canines who want to say hello to the other corgis and all of the guests.

  • Is the bride going to toss one of the Corgis instead of tossing a bouquet?

    I saw that! I was totally going to go on Snarky Brides and post it, but you beat me to it. I loved that the writer was as snarky as the people on TK! Especially the part about how she needs six >more< corgis. (Apparently, you can't do italics or bold on an ipad.)
  • This looney toons lady was just interviewed on a radio show I listen to on the way to to work. I delayed walking into my building to hear her justifications. It was worth it. 

    A few concerns cleared up:

    She doesn't have to worry about potential behavioral issues with dogs she doesn't know because she's going to require her bridesmaids to meet the hired dog beforehand and spend time with a trainer. I shit you not she said: "Some brides make them lose weight, I just want them to go to a dog trainer."

    If the dog pisses on a BM - no biggie. Their dresses are yellow. 

    Lastly, it's all accepted because she's SO original and her FI is totally cool with her uniqueness. 

    Sounds like she has it all figured out!

  • Well, I'm glad she thought to have yellow dresses. I mean, what does it matter if you get peed on if you're already in a urine colored dress??

    What if the dog has some kind of infection and the urine isn't yellow?

  • She's sending out a training regimen to all her bridesmaids so that they are prepared to hold onto 30 lb dogs for 2.5 hours. 

    I can see this trend turning into a one-upmanship. First corgis, next will be Mastiffs. Why rent just the dogs when you can also hire heavy lifting champion bridesmaids? Maybe this will be a good way for people to pay for their Crossfit memberships.

  • It sounded like she was only concerned about the possibility of a urine-soaked dress in regards to how it would look in pictures. I don't think this crazy considers how her BMs would feel to be peed on. 

    She wouldn't give her name. She knows she is wackadoodle.

  • I'm a bad person. I'm totally looking forward to a literal shit show of a wedding, and I hope the video is posted on YouTube so I can laugh like hell at it. Because nervous dogs poop. 
    Buying yellow dresses is an act of optimism on the bride's part.

     Can you imagine the guests stepping in dog poop in their fancy stiletto heels?! I mean 6 dogs (or minimum of 6 since she claims she needs 6 MORE in addition to however many she already has) produce a lot of poop. Let's be real here. That's at least 6 poops on the ground that people will have to doge.

    You just know she'll have a dress code, even if her venue doesn't have a dress code. Black tie only. Enjoy the poop.

  • When I read the title, I seriously pictured a bunch of corgis tied up together exactly like a bouquet and a bride walking down the aisle holding them just like a boquet.

    Don't judge, I'm still waking up.

  • Does the MOH have to hold TWO corgis?  Because she usually holds her own bouquet and the bride's bouquet.  2 corgis would be SOO heavy!  That's like 60 pounds of squirming corgi!
