Married in the wedding party

Hi Everyone,For my ceremony, the guys will all be lined up and the ladies will walk down the aisle one by one.  After the ceremony, the groomsmen will escort the bridesmaids away from the ceremony.   Your typical ceremony, it seems.So my question is this - My maid of honor is married to a groomsman, when they pair up to walk away can they walk together?  He'd be standing next to the best man, and I'm wondering if anyone is even going to notice.  Or, do you think we should just have the maid of honor walk with the best man and that be that.  It'd be nice if they could walk together, though I'm a bit biased since its my brother and sister in law, but I dont think they'd be offended if they couldn't.Any thoughts?

Re: Married in the wedding party

  • If you think it would be nice for them to walk together, then go for it.  It's your wedding, there is no right or wrong to how you do the processional.My MOH is married to a groomsman and we let her walk down the aisle with him.  They just got up there and took their spots, no big deal.

  • Thats what I was thinking too - Thanks to you both!
  • i think it is fione to have them walk together Have bil step ahead of best man and escort moh then best man escort bridesmaind #1
  • Your guests won't care at all.  I promise that no one will leave your wedding saying "Can you just imagine!  The MOH walked up the aisle with a GM.  This marriage is doomed!"As pp said, it's a 30 second walk.  Let your brother and SIL walk together if you want.  It's just fine.
    "Trix, it's what they/our parents wanted. Why so judgemental? And why is your wedding date over a year and a half ago? And why do you not have a groom's name? And why have you posted over 12,000 posts? And why do you always say mean things to brides?" palegirl146
  • I had the same situation. My sister was MOH, and her bf was a GM, but not BM. We did the processional the same way, with the guys standing up front. On the way out of church, MOH just walked with the best man. When we introduced them into the reception, they walked together. I'm glad they did, it turned out that the photog got a really cute picture of the two of them walking in. If you want them to walk out together, there's no reason why they can't.
  • I'd let them walk together. Have GM step up first to escort MOH, and then have best man escort BM#1. No one will notice or care.
  • Our best man is married to one of the BMs.. They arent walking together.  The MOH and BM will be walking together. 
  • I say let them walk down the aisle together.  My mil got married last year and my Fi and I were both in the wedding...he was closer to the groom and I was the last bridesmaid-the groomsmen after my FI just went right in front of him and I am certain no one noticed.  We wanted to get a good pic of us and our kids walking down the aisle.
  • I think, like everyone has said, that it doesn't matter one way or another. I have two married couples in our wedding party. My sister is MOH and his brother is best man. Their spouses are also in the party. They may walk out during the processional, maybe not. Probably. But certainly when introduced during the reception, they will be partnered with their husband/wife. Everyone will be busy taking pictures of you and your new husband. No one is going to notice one way or another.
