Bridal Party....

bridetobemnm07

My MOH is my brother's g/f and my fiance's Best Man is his best friend, however his wife and my brother are both in the wedding as well. Can they walk down together but just stand up next to us like normal? Is it ok to switch when exiting the church? I just want everyone to be comfortable and for picture purposes:) Thanks!

I think for pictures you can put the couples together, but walking down the aisle it shouldnt matter who is together.

Ditto Rachel. The married couple should be able to walk apart for the max. 30 seconds it takes to get down the aisle. Just pair them up for pictures.

Have them walk together if they wish, but stand in the correct place maybe?  And for pictures you should definitely couple the couples together.

Is there a reason why you couldn't put the married people together? I think it would be cuter to have couples walking up the aisle for you instead of mixed pairs. It doesn't really matter that much, though

We had our BP stand wherever for pictures.

FWIW, DH's best man's wife was one of my bridesmaids. They survived the whole two seconds of walking down the aisle apart. Unless a couple is really insecure/jealous, it should be a complete and total nonissue.

I'm going to have the bridesmaids walk down the aisle by themselves and then at the end of the ceremony walk with the guys. But I didn't know if it was ok to split up couples. My brother's g/f is my maid of honor and my best is a groomsmen and the best man and his wife are also in the wedding.

Have you never been to a wedding in which your FI (or boyfriend or whatever) was in the wedding party and you weren't? Or vice versa? Same concept.

While they should be seated with each other at the reception, it's not a requirement to have both members of a couple in the bridal party or have them "paired up". You certainly can if you want to, but it's not a big deal.

[QUOTE]There isn't a "correct" place for them to stand. They stand wherever they wish, or wherever they couple puts them.  There are no rules for this.  The only people who are at the wedding to be paired up are the bride and groom.  Dogs need to be walked; people don't.  There is no rule that the wedding party has to be paired up to walk in or out.  That's OPTIONAL.  So is the order, if they are.

<div>I just mean that the BM and MOH stand next to the bride and groom, but can walk with their SO,  does that make sense?</div>

YES! Thank you:) That's what we will do I think.
