Two Groom Processional?

Hi!
My friend and his finance are planning a small destination wedding. Only one of their mothers will be attending, and we are both unsure of how to do the procession. He was thinking either he will come in from the side, and his finance be escorted by his mother, or both come in from the side and meet in the middle? My first thought is that someone should come down the aisle, otherwise what's the point in having one? How is it usually done with two grooms? Are they both escorted down the aisle? Or come in from opposite sides alone? Any other ideas welcome!

Re: Two Groom Processional?

  • This is really personal preference.  Someone can seat the mother attending ahead of time, and each groom can be walked down the aisle by their best person (if they are having best people).  Or they can walk in together.  Or, they can walk in one by one.  Or, they can enter from the sides and meet up at the altar area, and walk down the aisle as they exit.

    Lots of different ideas.
  • One more alternative:  We walked in together, holding hands.  We were two brides, but there is no reason two grooms couldn't do the same thing.
  • The two groom wedding I was at in September had the grooms walk together and it was lovely. 
    Personally I'm walking down the isle with my dad while my bride stands at the alter with her Best man. Just some tradition I've always wanted and she's TOTALLY uninterested in it.

  • My fiancee and I will likely walk down the aisle together or he may walk down first, followed by me (he proposed to me, so he gets to walk down first). Similarly, my mother is deceased, his mother is living and attending the wedding. She will be seated prior to the start of the wedding, but when my fiance reaches down the aisle, he will give her a bouquet of flowers.

  • My fiancee is walking down the aisle first with her parents.  Our wedding party will follow. And I will pull up the rear with my son escorting me.  (Her choice to enter first as she wanted to see my entrance otherwise we would probably have walked together following behind the WP)  

    So many different options so do what feels right for the couple
  • i think what we are doing is:
    My parents are struggling a bit with it so I won't center them out by making them walk down the aisle unless of course they want to.

    Our Reverend will first which is the key that we are begining
    Then we have a flower girl, actualy a dear friend who is in her 60s to add a bit of humour

    my partners youngest son and daugher walk in first
    My partners oldest son and fiance walk in second
    My partners attendent and my attendent (male and female) walk in third
    We walk in hand in hand
