Bobby, the lovable family dog, has always held a special place in Ellie Woods’ heart. So, when Ellie and her wife Georgie planned their wedding, there was no question that Bobby had to be involved in the big day. But Bobby’s role went beyond simply attending—he became their four-legged videographer, capturing their special day from his unique perspective. And it just so happened that Bobby had an extra reason to celebrate: it was his birthday!
As the guests arrived and the excitement filled the air, Bobby was outfitted with a GoPro on his back. For many dogs, walking around with a camera might take some getting used to, but not for Bobby. Ever the attention-loving dog, he took to his new role with ease. “He loves being the center of attention,” Georgie said, laughing about how comfortable he was in his new job.
For Ellie and Georgie, Bobby had been an important part of their journey as a couple, and they couldn’t imagine their wedding without him. “Animals are really important to queer couples,” Ellie shared. “It was so important to have him be a part of our big day.”
Once the festivities concluded, the couple sat down to review the footage that Bobby had captured. What they saw brought them laughter and joy. The GoPro revealed Bobby sneaking hors d’oeuvres and even wandering into the bathroom where Georgie’s sister was preparing for the event. His mischievous side showed through, but it also highlighted his integral role in the celebration.
Beyond the funny moments, Bobby’s camera also captured the heartfelt scenes that Ellie and Georgie would treasure forever. The footage of them walking down the aisle, their first kiss, and candid interactions with loved ones were all recorded from Bobby’s perspective. “It captured some really special moments,” Ellie said. “We couldn’t be happier with how it came out because it’s just so organic and such an interesting, different perspective.”
But perhaps the most heartwarming part of the day was that it was also Bobby’s birthday. Amid all the wedding excitement, Bobby was showered with extra love and attention for his special day. The couple even made sure Bobby had his own treat-filled celebration, because what’s a birthday without cake (or, in Bobby’s case, dog-friendly goodies)?
Bobby’s big day as both wedding guest and videographer was a success, capturing the magic of his owners’ love while also marking his own milestone. Happy Birthday, Bobby—you’ve proven that the best wedding moments are the ones seen through a dog’s eyes!
