What is a dog wedding welcome sign?

Answered by the UK Wedding Websites editorial team · Updated 2026-10-12

Short answer

A dog wedding welcome sign is a sign that includes your dog, either with a photo, a paw print, or a message, to welcome guests and celebrate your pet.

Many couples want their dog to be part of the wedding, even if the dog cannot attend the ceremony. A dog welcome sign is a way to include them. It might say "Welcome to our wedding" with a picture of your dog, or have a line like "Our dog [name] sends their love". Some signs show a paw print or a cartoon of your dog wearing a bow tie or flower.

You can design the sign to match the rest of your stationery. Use the same colours, fonts, and style as your invitations. If your dog is actually coming to the wedding, the sign can say "Please say hello to [dog's name]" or "Our dog is here, please do not feed them". This helps guests know how to behave around your pet.

If your dog will not be there, the sign can be a sweet tribute. Place it near the entrance or on the gift table. You could also use a smaller version as a table card. The sign should be clear and friendly, and it will make your guests smile. Just keep the message short so it is easy to read at a glance.
