I have always loved dogs; I grew up in the countryside where I was surrounded by dogs of all different shapes and sizes, including spaniels, terriers, collies, a rottweiler and a German shepherd. As well as dogs we had horses, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets, chickens and even a tortoise! I’ve always had a passion for pets and firmly believe they are part of the family. But it’s dogs that I adore. I can’t imagine life without one; walks would be boring, and the house would be very quiet!

I married my wonderful husband Ben in December 2017 and we desperately wanted our beautiful dogs in the photographs at our wedding but found that everyone we trusted to look after them were already a guest.  We found someone from much further afield who could assist us and were thrilled that, not only could our dogs share our big day with us, we also had peace of mind that they were fully supervised and happy as they did not have to stay long.  It was then I decided I wanted to help other couples achieve the same dream, so in 2018 I created Oh Bella Wedding Day Dogs.

We live in a quiet little cottage in the West Norfolk countryside with our 5 year old son Rupert, with acres of fenland and woodland on our doorstep.  I have always rescued dogs and our last two beloved beauties were no exception.  Paige was a retired racing whippet who loved to snuggle under blankets and Bella was an ex-working Border terrier whose favourite place was sitting on my knee! Although they are no longer with us, they were with us from the very start of this journey, so quite fittingly, Paige is our logo and Bella is our name!

This really is a dream job! So far I have completed over 100 weddings, with over 125 dogs, with just as many home boarding with us too!

If you’d love to include your dog in your wedding, whether it be in the ceremony or simply in a few photographs to treasure forever, I’d love to hear from you so we can help make your big day even more special.
