"When we looked for venues, allowing cats was the main priority," Benitez told PEOPLE. "When we picked a caterer, we made sure they could make salmon (Michael's fave). And when we booked a DJ, we made sure he wouldn't play 'Who Let the Dogs Out'."

"Aside from strutting down the aisle, his biggest role was keeping the party going well into the night. As a groomsman, he kept everyone in the wedding party entertained and energetic," Benitez said.
