For those of you who loved this picture as much as I, here is a link to the article published in the Daily Mail (!!!). It is worth it just to see Bella running to the couple in the church. And it explains Valerie's disability. I feel so blessed to share the love that is the basis of this story.

This picture and story were in my local newspaper this morning, from a wedding here on Jan 9th. The photo was taken by a part-time photographer at her friend's wedding, and has been widely shared on the internet now. This pic melted my heart! Both bride and her companion dog are so beautiful!

Beautiful bride, beautiful dog and I certain it was a beautiful wedding.   Such a touching story but I am so happy that the Bride's best friend (her service dog) was able to be in the most important event of her life.  The dog is not just an animal but  a part of her family as we all know.   Wishes for this family to have a long,  happy, healthy life together.

Thank you very much for sharing.  I was expecting the bride to be blind or have some other issue than the ones listed.   Not saying she should not have a service dog but I obviously know people that I need to share this with that should look into getting a service dog for the same issues and more.   Love this story.   Beautiful.

Sweet! Love your phrase,  "I am owned by..." So true!

Oh my goodness,  I would love to have a cat reign in our home again! However,  I developed allergies to cats/dogs, pet hair, etc. several years ago, so am not able to have indoor pets. Smiley Sad
