This is the heartwarming moment a beloved pet dog curled up and fell asleep on a bride's wedding dress during her photoshoot.

Addy, radiant in her wedding gown, was posing for pictures when Noodle, her toy poodle, settled onto the flowing train of her dress at the Ascott Makati Hotel in Manila, Philippines.

Footage captured by Toni Maceda shows the 13-year-old elderly pooch, wearing a tiny bow tie collar, peacefully napping beside her on August 2.

The adorable behaviour made the bride smile and crouch down to stroke Noodle's fur, before her younger sister, Chloe, gently scooped him up.

Cradling him like a baby, Chloe carried the sleepy dog off the set to place him back in his bed.

Toni said: 'The morning of my friend's wedding, she and her family, along with the bridesmaids, were getting ready while Noodle paced around the room. He would frequently return to his bed in the corner to sleep, since he is already old and tires easily.

'It happened a few times, actually—we had to keep returning him to his bed as we were worried her wedding dress might get dirty, but he kept going back to Addy to sleep on her dress.

'Addy had lived with Noodle her entire life, and since she would be moving out to live with her husband after the wedding, we saw the moment as Noodle's way of saying goodbye.'
