I posted this on Customs and Traditions yesterday, but didn't get much response...I'm hoping this board can help
Surely I am overthinking this, but I know someone out there has the answer...
I know it is tradition for the mother of the bride to be seated last. My grandmother will be the only grandparent attending the wedding. Where does she go in the order? Is she seated first, before the groom's parents, then my mom? Or do the groom's parents go first, then my Memaw, then my mom?
I just had an idea. We are not having ushers, but can I have my brother escort my mom and Memaw at the same time, after the groom's parents?
Second question- does it matter which of my dad's arms I take when he walks me to the altar? He has limited use of his right arm due to some medical complications, and it can be painful for him to be touched on his arm/shoulder/chest area. I'm afraid I may lean on him due to my shoes or nerves, and I wouldn't want to cause any pain. Am I ok to be on his left side?
ETA: I know I have a long time to sort these details out, but I stayed home sick from work today and this is what happens when I am bored
