"When your dog takes being a bridesman seriously," the text reads. And in the clip, the Golden Retriever has the bride's train in his mouth.

The good dog is holding up the bride's dress so it didn't drag on the rocks while photos were being taken.

The Golden Retriever looks dapper with his beautiful golden fur and a blue bandana that's tied around his neck.

The video's caption read, "He understood the assignment. " People praised the sweet dog in the comments.

One wrote, "This is too precious."

Another added, "awwww adorable."

Someone else shared, "He did a good job."

One explained, "Sobbing."

"This is so darling! What a proud and happy pup," someone else wrote.

Dogs in Weddings Is Becoming More Popular and There Are a Lot of Roles for Pups

Dogs are as much a part of our family as any other person or pet, and we want them to be involved in our big life moments and memories.

Many dog parents are choosing to have their dog participate in their wedding ceremony, and dogs are perfect for many different roles.

According to Sidewalk Dog , dogs have many options in wedding ceremonies, including the best dog of honor.

"Sure, you love the rest of your wedding party… but do you love them as much as your dog? (You don’t have to answer out loud.)" the site jokes. "Have your pup stroll the aisle with the rest of the bridal party so he can be right by your side while you say your I do’s."

We've seen videos of the dog escorting the groom or bride down the aisle, which is always so cute to see the pup's tail wag as they head up the aisle. "Some folks even recommend attaching a GoPro to your dog’s collar to get a perspective your videographer definitely isn’t gonna be able to catch," Sidewalk Dog explains.

One of the more popular roles we see dogs hold in weddings is that of the ring bearer. People tie little pillows on their dog's back, which holds the rings, and there are so many cute outfits your pup can wear at the event, too.
