There wouldn't be anywhere for Harley to be during the reception. I could crate him but there is just a little kitchen where people will be so he would prob. cry to get out or the bathroom which is 1 stall so people are going to be using them so....doesn't seem like it would work. We will try to get Daisy to sit in the engagement pics but who knows how that will go. She has been doing a little bit better lately though.
