Unusual Touches: Hired a New York-style hot dog truck to come serve late night hot dogs, complete with how the bride dresses her hot dog (nacho cheese and flaming hot Cheetos) and how the groom prefers his (ketchup, mustard, onion and relish).

The couple’s rescue greyhounds were also sprinkled throughout the event. On drink koozies, on the menu cards, on the programs, and they even had specialty cocktails named after them.
