Although it may look like a case of clever editing, this really is a dog getting his groove on at a Turkish wedding. Seriously, the video starts out looking like this guy is going to be the quiet one but then he busts out moves faster than your crazy Aunt Flo after a couple of glasses of pinot.

He doesn't exactly "dance," as it's more of a "bounce." But he's owning the beat like any good dog would. Seriously, he could be the fifth member of the Black Eyed Peas.

We're committed to our pets and all, but this? It's a bit much.

Twenty-year-old education student Joseph Guiso and his yellow Lab, Honey, are now joined by the sacred bonds of matrimony, or so they say. We're not so sure the union is legal.

According to the Daily Mail, the wedding took place during a glorious sunset ceremony in Toowoomba, Australia's Laurel Bank Park, where 30 friends and family members looked on. Joseph and Honey even sealed the deal with a big, wet smooch.

Don't get the wrong idea, folks, Guiso assured his guests that "It's not sexual."

Well, that's a relief.

As you might imagine, the couple skipped the traditional "'til death do us part" vow, opting for a more heartfelt, species-appropriate exchange. "You're my best friend and you make every part of my day better," Guiso said to his bride.

Dress at the wedding was semiformal, with Guiso in a suit and tie and the Labrador in a white cape. The pair has been together since Guiso rescued his bride five years ago. According to the newspaper's website, Guiso describes himself as a "religious guy" and simply felt guilty living with Honey out of wedlock.

Look, we've heard of having dogs in your wedding and even doggie summer camps offering ceremonies joining two pooches in canine matrimony, but this is something completely different.

It's no secret that many of us consider our dogs family, so it only makes sense that -- on one of the most important days of our lives -- we'd want our pet by our side, right?

While it's becoming more and more popular to include dogs in wedding ceremonies, it's not exactly a new trend. Our gallery below shows a picture of a 1920s bride holding her beloved pup, and paintings dating back to the 1800s show that dogs were occasional guests at their owners' nuptials.

Dogs in Weddings
More and more couples are including their favorite furry friends in even formal weddings. A four-legged ring bearer is just about as cute as it gets!

Dogs in Weddings

    Sometimes getting the pooch to pose is problematic, but we're betting some treats (and possibly a squeaky toy) were used here, with some terrific results. Most groomsmen don't even give that great a smile!

    Designating a dog walker can be a great way to include another friend in your wedding. Just make sure you choose someone who is, a) familiar with your dog, and, b), strong enough to keep the pooch from pulling them down the aisle is he gets excited.

    It wouldn't be a family portrait without the four-legged members, would it?

    Dogs have long been important parts of our lives, and sometimes even guests at our wedding. In some families, it might even be a tradition!

    A sweet little bow is an easy (and inexpensive) way to dress up your pup for the big day.

    Who needs a bouquet when you have a precious puppy to carry down the aisle?

    As far back as the 1920s, when this photo was taken, dog owners were including the furriest members of their families in their nuptials.

    Of course, sometimes dogs aren't just members of the bridal party -- some owners hold entire wedding ceremonies just for their pets! Obviously, to this bride, size doesn't matter ...

    Think they'd look this happy if their dogs were stuck at home on this special day? We doubt it!

    Remember, having a dog in your wedding puts a lot of pressure on them to perform, and chances are good that they won't be perfect. And it's okay -- it'll just give you more to laugh about later, right?
