In what could easily be deemed the dog wedding of the century, 10-year-old Toast tied the knot with 7-year-old chiweenie Finn last night. And their wedding was better than probably most human nuptials.
The soiree spared no expense. Held at The High Line Hotel in Manhattan’s swanky Chelsea area, there were approximately 200 guests in attendance, both dogs and humans, including the Real Housewives of New York.

Then the big moment came. All eyes were on the bride as she made her way down the aisle. Wearing a custom-made Marchesa gown a Vera Wang leash and a necklace on loan worth a reported $139,000, Toast looked amazing.

While it was definitely an affair to be remembered, it was also for a good cause. Both Toast and Finn were puppy mill dogs and are passionate about putting an end to commercial breeding. Proceeds from the event will go to National Dog Mill Rescue. People can also head to Zola registry and buy wedding gifts, which include supplies and food to feed dogs in need.
