We all love our pets and they are really part of the family, but unfortunately due to Health Regulations,

they are not permitted inside venues where food is being served unless it is a guide dog or assistance

dog.

Most venues will not allow pets, because  some people having a allergic reaction because of the fur. Pets having to go to the toilet on the grounds which most venues don't like.

There are many reasons for this, but venues close to roads, or farms with livestock or where there is no suitable fencing are just a few.

At our farm Lonely Goat Olives, there is a pet minder 2 km down the road. For a modest fee, she will take care of your pets.

Some venues do not allow pets for a number of reasons. Some of these are:

- There is not an appropriate space for the pet to go to the toilet

- Some pets can cause mess in the venue

- Some pets can become scared ad uneasy being in an unfamiliar setting

- O,H&S reasons - some venues cannot serve food where animals are present

If having your pet involved in your wedding is important to you, there are websites that outline pet-friendly wedding venues.
