text: A precious couple, who have been through thick and thin together for the last seven years, have finally committed to tying the knot in a glitzy wedding that will see all funds raised go to charity. Jasper and Jasmine may not be your regular bride and groom, but the rescued pugs' May 17 ceremony at the St Kilda beachfront in Melbourne will have some of the biggest stylists and designers ensuring their big day runs smoothly. Both adorable dogs were surrendered to Pug Rescue and Adoption Victoria in 2013 with a variety of health problems. Jasper (left) and Jasmine (right) will be 'married' in a charity event in May to raise money for Pug Rescue and Adoption Victoria . Both adorable dogs were surrendered to the organisation in 2013 with a variety of health problems. Both were morbidly obese, struggling to breathe, and almost blind . After six months of rehabilitation, in which both dogs lost 3kg and had their sight almost entirely restored, they were found a loving new home . They were morbidly obese, struggling to breathe, and almost blind due to pigmentary keratitis, where a thick brown pigment covered their corneas. Jasper also suffered from severe dental problems and entropion, a condition which caused his eyelids to curl in and his eyelashes to painfully rub against his eyes. After six months of rehabilitation, in which both dogs lost 3kg and had their sight almost entirely restored - and Jasper underwent entropion surgery to reshape and remodel his eyelids as well as major dental work - , both dogs managed to find a loving home with Alison and Matt Rowe. The couple, who describe their new pets as inseparable, soon decided that Jasper and Jasmine's relationship was like that of a boyfriend and girlfriend. Valentines day: Their new owners noticed a great bond between the dogs and always joked they were boyfriend and girlfriend . 'At the day spa getting ready for our engagement photoshoot': They decided to 'wed' their new pups in an effort to raise money for the organisation that helped save them . Jasmine gets fitted for her wedding gown: The well-awaited wedding dress will be designed and created by former Project Runway designer Craig Braybrook (left), a pug owner and lover . 'They sleep together, they eat together, they bath together and cuddle each other every day. They are so close they even clean each other's ears,' Alison said. The notion presented the perfect idea for a fundraiser event for Pug Rescue and Adoption Victoria, which rescues and cares for up to 100 surrendered pugs each year. Running entirely on donations, vet discounts and the kindness and passion of their volunteers, the organisation hopes to raise enough money through admission tickets and the wedding's 'gift registry' to continue funding the various operations required by newcomers. Jasmine's bridal consultation saw her try on her custom headpiece for the big day . 'Jasper I love you Jasi xx': 'They sleep together, they eat together, they bath together and cuddle each other every day. They are so close they even clean each other's ears,' owner Alison Rowe said . Pug Rescue and Adoption Victoria run entirely on donations, vet discounts and the kindness and passion of their volunteers . 'We are a foster based group - we don't have a shelter or kennels or office. All the dogs are fostered in volunteer's homes and cared for by their foster parents. No one is paid within our organisation and we started up about five years ago,' Founder Joana Herceg told Daily Mail Australia. 'Why pugs? You need dedicated breed rescuers because a lot of the time, pugs will come into care and volunteers will pick-up a medical issues that an old owner or vet didn't pick up - it might be behaviour that people might think is unusual or naughty, but is really just how a pug behaves.' The bride and groom are lucky enough to have renowned Australian event designer and pug lover Christian Wagstaff - who has worked on the Crown Casino, The Logies and Melbourne's Food and Wine Festival - styling their big day.
