If you're obsessed with your pup or can't get enough of your cat, chances are you'll want to include them in your special day. Here are three hotels that not only host weddings but also have awesome pet programs.
The Muse Hotel, a Kimpton Hotel
Located at the center of the world—Time Square in Manhattan—this hotel offers both a sleek, city-style wedding and a pet-friendly atmosphere. The Muse Hotel encourages VSPs (Very Special Pets) to join the wedding party and invites them to stay free of charge. There’s no limit on the amount of pets in one room, and the hotel welcomes all sizes and breeds (talk about hosPETality!). Your pooch will be welcomed with a special basket filled with treats, a cozy bed and a list of local attractions, like the local dog park, "Canine Court" (themusehotel.com).

The Ritz-Carlyon, Half Moon Bay
The ultra posh accommodations at this California hotel, located near San Francisco, are surprisingly welcoming to furry friends. The "Pampered Pooch Program" hosts pet guests and provides amenities, including plush doggie beds and grooming services. Your pet can also receive a "Pet Pawsport," which details all of the pet-friendly services that the hotel offers (like their special dining menu). There's also the "Pup Play Dates" program, which offers walks and games of fetch, among other activities. The hotel offers exclusive accommodations for you and your pet in large guesthouses set on the Coastal Trail, a 9-mile path along the bay (ritzcarlton.com).

The Driskill
Located in Austin, this historic hideaway built in 1886 offers a "Pampered Pet Program" to provide the finest hospitality to pooches. Man’s best friend gets a custom Driskill pet bed, designer dishes, mats and gourmet pet treats. Upgrade to the "I Love My Dog Package" (available on certain nights), and not only will your dog get all the treats listed above, but you’ll also enjoy some of your own (think: wine, cheese and pretty bath amenities). A portion of the program’s purchase price is given to the Austin Pets Alive! foundation (driskillhotel.com).

Whenever you go, don’t forget to dress Spot up for the occasion! You can have your four-legged friend fit right into the wedding party with Twinkle and Company’s recently-launched wedding line. Our favorites are the collars lined with diamonds and the heart bracelets!
