Ellie Woods’ family dog, Bobby, has always been an important part of her love story with her wife, Georgie Woods. When Ellie first brought Georgie home, Bobby was the family member she most wanted Georgie to meet.

When the couple got engaged and began planning their wedding, they decided it would be fun to document the wedding from Bobby’s unique perspective, so just before the ceremony began, they strapped a GoPro to Bobby’s back and let him loose.

For some dogs, walking around with a camera on their back might take some getting used to – but that wasn’t the case for Bobby. He felt comfortable right away.

“He loves being the centre of attention,” Georgie told The Dodo. “He just loved it.”

Georgie and Ellie said it meant the world to have Bobby at their wedding.

“Animals are really important to queer couples,” Ellie said. “It was so important to have him there… as part of our big day.”

When the newlyweds sat down to watch the footage of Bobby, they were surprised and delighted by what they saw. The GoPro had caught Bobby stealing appetizers and even surprising Georgie’s sister in the bathroom. Bobby may be an experienced videographer, but he’s still a dog, after all.

Of course, Bobby’s camera caught much more than just the antics. Georgie and Ellie enjoyed watching themselves walk down the aisle together from Bobby’s perspective.

“It captured some really special moments,” said Ellie. “We couldn’t be happier with how it turned out because it’s just so organic and offers such an interesting, different perspective.”
