A bride and groom’s beloved dog stole the show at their wedding when he came down the aisle in a mini car, acting as their ring bearer.
Emone and Rickie Richardson, from Houston, Texas, said their four-year-old poodle, Milo, has been there for every milestone in their relationship, so it felt right to have him play a part in their big day.
Having settled on having Milo act as their ring bearer, the couple then decided to add an extra, fun element, having him ride in a small child’s car as he came down the aisle.

At Boxwood Manor, in Texas, guests waited as Milo then appeared, looking around as he was driven towards his mom and dad.
The addition of the car was perfect, Emone, 34, said, as it added to the playfulness of the moment and showed off Milo’s fun personality.
When seeing Milo in the car, guests instantly started smiling and laughing – the perfect icebreaker for the ceremony itself, Emone said.
She added: “It honestly made me so happy and emotional at the same time.
“Seeing Milo come down the aisle felt like the perfect reflection of our relationship and our life together — full of love, family, and a little bit of fun.
“It was one of those moments where you just pause and take it all in.
“Milo is truly part of our family, so from the beginning we knew we wanted to include him in our wedding somehow.
“He’s been with us through so many milestones in our relationship, so it only felt right for him to be there on such an important day.
