Question

Where is Bentley?

Answer

Originally plans were for Bentley to have a significant role in the wedding, but then during prep and dress search, there was a falling out, words were said, and Bentley peed on one of the dresses. He may or may not have (accurately) been called a son of a bitch, and was cut from the wedding plans. Most likely he is currently at home, looking out the window waiting for Natalie, and will excitedly greet the newlyweds when they come home.
