PHILADELPHIA, PA -- Two adorable dachshunds -- "Hudson and Chelsea" -- just got hitched in a fabulous ceremony.

The dogs' owners decided that it would be a great idea for the dogs to get married -- "like REALLY married," one of the owners wrote on her blog. So the owners spared no expense, and local vendors around Philadelphia chipped in the very best of everything - place cards, flowers, and centerpieces.

And so, Chelsea and Hudson said "I do," in front of dear friends and family -- with a bull dog officiating the wedding.

See more of the wedding with a look behind-the-scenes at the photography website Danfredo Rivera.
