Really neat or a total disaster? Would appreciate your input before I try to talk them out of it, LOL! >> No personal experience, but on the same topic: 1. When my brother got married, he spent six months prior to the wedding begging me not to enter any shows on that day! He was so nervous, he called me the day before the wedding to see if I was still coming..... Did I peek at the premium lists for that date? Of course! 2. At the 1996 National, there was a wedding at the host hotel the same night of the Victory dinner. There were GSD's in the lobby, in the hallways. I still wonder if the couple knew they'd be sharing their day a hotel full of dogs.....and does dog hair cling to a wedding gown?
