My father isn't going to be able to walk me down the aisle (reasons I don't want to discuss) but I was just wondering how has other brides done it? Who walked you down the aisle other then your father and what did the person performing the ceremony say if they didn't say "who gives this woman away?" I have 4 nephews who are pretty close and I am thinking about asking them at this point to escort me because it is a really long walk and down a few steps so I don't really want to do it alone. I guess I just want to know how a ceremony works out when there isn't a father "giving away" a bride.THANKS!
