I'm not so much into Valentine's Day. I mean, I believe in love but really dislike any holiday that mandates displays thereof. Way I see it, you should be showing the one you love how much you love them every day, not only one day. But there is one Valentine's Day-related event I can totally get behind: The SPCA Tampa Bay's Pet Weddings celebration this Saturday. Pets can bring their human companions while they "tie the leash" with their beloved four-footed friends. And, hey, if you need a new furry friend? The SPCA Tampa Bay has an abundance of buddies you can bring home.
A sparkling cider toast follows the ceremony, and there will also be a photo booth (so much cheaper than a wedding photographer, y'all).
The event benefits all the animals still waiting to find true love at the SPCA Tampa Bay
