Processional Question

tinydancer842

So my BP is uneven (I know, the horrors!) Anyways, my officiant sent me a processional worksheet & I am not sure what the order should be/who the escorts should be. At my sister's wedding my brother was a GM/Usher? Anyways here's the problem....I was thinking of having my brother (who is a GM) escort my mom & possible my grandma (if she attends) however then the processional would then go something like this...

FI walks in with both parents

Grandma walks in with brother/gm

Mom walks in with brother/gm (will he have time to run back to get my mom too, or should I ask my sister's husband to do this?)

BM 1 & GM 1

BM 2 & GM 2

BM 3 & GM3

MOH & BM

FGs (not sure if they will be able to attend)

Bride & Father

Does this sound okay or should I have BIL escort mom & my brother/GM escort grandma (if grandma shows up?) or is it rude to ask GM to escort family in? Ugh, help!

Here's how we resolved the uneven WP situation:

Entrance:

FIL walked MIL in.

Ushers walked mom in.

GM stood at the altar with DH.

BMs walked in one by one.

Exit: 

Me and DH.

BM and GM paired up as they walked; last GM escorted two BM.

Parents all walked out together.

Hmm the only thing is FI wanted to walk in with both parents, but I like the idea of having the girls walk in by themselves. Do you think I could have brother usher mom in even though he's a GM?

I think it's a great idea, he then would just move up to the altar rather than run back.

Tiny, since DH is jewish, he walked in with both parents. Here is how we did it. 

Grandparents

MOB and her escorts (her two brothers)

Groomsmen (one at a time)

RB

Groom (escorted by both his parents)

BMs (one at a time again)

FGs

Bride and dad

Hmm...now that I think about it, I think we will seat my grandma first if she comes b/c she has troubles walking...then it will go like so...

FI & his parents

Brother & Mom

GM walk in single file

BMs walk in single file

FGs

Me & Dad

I would sit your mom and brother BEFORE the groom. It is after all his day. But that's just me. I just like to keep the bridal party all together and have the family members enter before.
